In antiquity, around primeval fires, we discovered the amazing teaching power of metaphors wrapped in the timeless magic of story.
The Good Samaritan. The Ugly Duckling. The Boy Who Cried Wolf. The Hare and the Tortoise. Stories are still our most powerful teaching tools. But, scurrying along to the beat of TikTok time, we hurry though stories and rush to put out the light, never pausing to pay respect to the time tested wisdom and important deeper meanings. And we are much poorer for it. In this dark age of cyber bullying and doomscrolling, the message about being comfortable and at ease in your own skin is more important than ever!
