In This Wonderful World, stories are central tools for generating the hope, love, joy, empowerment and peace that’s needed to endure and overcome the challenges of our everyday lives, and those that we face as a collective.
Stories help shape our reality:
They help us to imagine new possibilities.
They cultivate supportive perspectives.
They deepen our understanding our ourselves and the world around us.
Though we all tell stories every day (every conversation is ultimately crafting a collaborative story), because conversation tends to move so fast, it’s easy to lose track of what we’re talking about and why.
With this in mind, the practice of storytelling in This Wonderful World helps to hone our ability to craft stories that generate love, peace, joy, hope and empowerment in our everyday lives. Like a muscle, as we practice crafting stories for hope, love, joy, peace, and empowerment, overtime that hope, love, joy, peace, and empowerment become our default way of relating to ourselves and the world around us -and life flourishes as a result.
