Human Dignity & Compassion

Every Human has a Story:
A Story a Day

What is the value of telling or hearing a story? What does it do for the teller and for the listener?

Every human being has a story. It deserves to be told and heard. Every time one tells a story it is a bit different based on where they are in the world that day and who they are telling it to. Stories are what people remember and repeat. They have the power to change opinions and create new realities. Stories are the foundation of memory.At this moment in time, one of the greatest tools we have to help the hostages is our ability to share their stories. Every single hostage has a story that needs to be told. And heard.
