I TELL STORIES BECAUSE LIFE IS HARD. A GOOD STORY CAN HELP YOU ESCAPE ; TO GAIN PERSPECTIVE, AND REFLECT. OR, MAYBE JUST LAUGH, CRY, OR JUMP OUT OF YOUR SEAT.

WHEN YOU RETURN TO REAL LIFE, YOU TAKE A LITTLE BIT OF THAT STORY WITH YOU. IN THIS WAY, A GOOD STORY MAKES YOU A BETTER VERSION OF YOURSELF.
