Breathing Creates Stories


I have spent a lot of time since Story Chip began, in discussions with people who try to convince me that their stories are not interesting or that they do not know how to tell them. I am lucky in that I know that all our stories are interesting and compelling when we tell them. They frequently lose something when someone else tells them for us or polishes them up in some way.

When you create a web site devoted to telling stories and creating pages full of people sharing their experiences, you surely generate your own sensitivity to examples of the simplest nature that become emotional blockbusters. I have a short list of those occasions and some great photos that follow the jump.
