Stories

"Perhaps the most profound of the tools we have at our disposal is the simple act of telling our stories to other human travelers- in a circle around the fire, at the back fence with the neighbor, or at the kitchen table.   By sharing our most human traits, we begin to feel  less odd, less lonely, and less pessimistic.   And the core of each story-each personal myth-we uncover a splendid treasure, a source of unending power and sweetness; the shining soul of each wayfarer."   Elizabeth Lesser
