Storytelling in families is the golden thread that binds generations and siblings into a thickly woven tapestry. Each time a child tells a parent a story and a parent listens, or a father tells his daughter a personal tale, a single thread is sewn between the two. Soon a comfortable, stable familial environment is created as a result of intertwining story-sharing. What may have otherwise been a chaotic, disjointed atmosphere almost magically is changed into an open world of empathy and mutual understanding--like straw spun into golden thread.
