Do you like to listen to the older peoples tales of long ago?

I love to listen to older people talk. It was one of my favorite things to do when my dad and his brothers would get togehter and they would talk about the past.

I do and I too would sit for hours listening. but I dont hear them anymore because they are all gone now. when you mentioned it I realizes how much I miss them days.

yes i love to listen to stories of the past. when my grandfather was alive i would drive him once a week to his sisters house wre all of his eleven sibling would meet and just tell stories of the past. i miss thoses days. i was just starting to drive at the time but wouldnt have rather driven anywhrere else on that day and would have made the drive ever day if id have been asked. the one regret i have is my kids will never hear those stories the way i did. Noone could ever tell them the way they did.

Oh yes, I do! Aways loved to listening to my grandparents. Lots of wisdom to be gained.

I used to love listening to my Grandparents stories. They are gone now but I still remember the stories. We took a tape recorder and still have the tape. It is so wonderful to listen to the stories again and hear their voices. You have me in tears just thinking of Grandma and Granddad.

I love to listen to my Grandma, she is 87 years old. She has lived through so many things in life and is a wealth of knowledge.

i do i was raised by my grandparents and still use thier wisdom today,also part of our cultural heratige is locked into those stories and i wish my children could see the value in that.

i love listening to old stories...my mom wasn't much for telling them, but my dad used to talk about his experiences on an aircraft carrier in WW II, and my aunt used to tell me so many great stories of when she wa little..i wish she was still around to tell me more!

I LOVE listening to elderly people tell me stories. While most people get annoyed, I could sit and listen for days! I love to hear about how things used to be and how different life was. It's very interesting to me.

Although I spent quite a lot of time with my grandparents, they never talked very much about the past, but I loved to listen to my mum as she discussed all the pranks she got up to, and about also about her school days. Now, I pass all the stories on to my grandchildren and they enjoy listening so much, that they always ask for me to tell them about the old days before they go to bed at night.

Yes I like to listen. These are really interesting and you feel a sense of satisfaction on these old men face when they tell you these stories.

Yes, I love listening to my grand parents and before my great parents passed loved listening to them. I love hearing how they grew up or something that tickled them so much. It's really cool because they get a chance to go back down memory lane. I could listen to them for hours on how things were in their day and age, or something I did as a child. I love it...

I as well, my grandfather had the best stories. we would sit for hours listening to his stories of when he was a kid

I love it! I have been doing genealogy research for about 2 years and I send random questions to the older relatives. I did not want my family tree to look like a data sheet. Instead I will have their stories and pictures.
