stories are the heart of who we are as a people, as a society, as a culture. the blood that flows through our veins is saturated with mere words and memories of experiences, good and bad. some oft remembered, others suppressed and hidden deep within. our past, present and future is dependent on stories.
the more we suppress our stories and the stories of old, the more we become disengaged from each other and from the difficult truths of our collective pasts.
stories are a pathway to freedom, to confidence, and to a greater perspective that the world is greater than our realm. without regard, we must chew on our stories - no matter how refreshing to digest nor how difficult it may be to swallow. we must claw at it, dig deep, investigate and uncover. we must not take for granted the truth that is found in the stories of the world. for their words are they fuel that propels us beyond the mundane.
our collective story must be told and retold in order to bring about the future we've all dreamed of... a future that we never thought possible.
it all starts with stories.
what will your story be?
