American storyteller, Ruth Stotter has said,
Some people think we’re made of flesh and blood and bones. Scientists say we’re made of atoms. But I think we’re made of stories. When we die, that’s what people remember, the stories of our lives and the stories that we told.
I like this. For me, it captures the essence of the complex nature of who we are. We’re not just flesh and bones or atoms but so much more. We are storytellers. From prehistoric cave paintings to the iPod generation human beings have always found an outlet for telling the stories of their time. What’s your story?
