Your Story's Power - E-book - ePub

The vision of this book is to encourage and motivate people to recognize and appreciate the incalculable value and meaning to be found in their own stories. Included are many models for this process, along with several chapters on "How-to-Get-Started" writing or telling a story. You will see that every individual's story is unique, precious and meaningful. The text that follows illustrates this by featuring two published authors who share stories about their lives over 24 chapters.
Then every third chapter adds fascinating stories from a new person who speaks in their own voice through a Grace, Grit & Hope podcast interview with them. The book ends with a creative invitation to the reader to begin documenting and sharing their own stories. We believe this book can help you to discover your own true north and the wisdom you have accumulated over the years. In today's insane society, a world where fear and hatred are widespread, we believe all of us can find sanity and peace by sharing stories with one other.
It was storytelling that created humans. It was storytelling that brought humanity the benefits of civilization, and sadly, also brought us fear, hate, violence and war. This is why the stories we tell ourselves are so important because what we choose to tell and re-tell others often determines the shape of our lives.
