Story Fields

The strong power and long lasting impact that stories can have on people is something that has always bewildered me.

Eyes opening wide, jaws dropping, involuntary sounds produced in the middle of a story telling event are some of the things I really appreciate and cherish in life.

To me, the words in a story are like seeds that somehow find their way out of the teller's mouth to land in rich and fertile soil.

Those words then, those stories are nurtured in the listener's hearts and souls, growing and expanding, till in due time they become Story Fields: the fields of stories that walk with us through life providing a nice memory, a sweet word, a pleasant anchor in times when we need it most.

May your fields be full of stories,
and your stories full of dreams.
