Stories are everywhere. Strewn here and there. They lay naked, oblivious to the eye that zaps across the time, the feet that rush through and thoughts that waves, never calm. It takes one story to put the senses in order, nurse the wounds, appease the ego, and make life little easier to be. More importantly to slow down. It might tickle you with joy, share wisdom, make you wonder, empathize. It is those things that happen to each of us, which connects and makes us one.
