 Although we encounter story in an infinite number of situations, none is more influential to us individually than being involved in personal story-sharing.
The Survival of Story
Most history books do not contain human details, feelings, or thoughts. Despite great scholastic efforts, we lose touch with the past rapidly. While two-dimensional facts twirl textually about us, social customs, feelings, testimonies, superstitions, folk remedies, folk speech, and games are many times only preserved orally.
