You seek courage among the faces of fellow campers, but only fear stares you back.
Stories have a mysterious power of impact over the human soul.
Briefly, we are transported somewhere else, and engaged with the hero or heroine battling the villian. For most of us, stories are a daily feed. We consume them through books, movies, television shows, magazines and more. We're ravenous for tales about people, from celebrity tidbits, to the scoop on our collegues to a little neighborly gossip. Because of our insatiable appetite for human drama, be it a life-threatening adventure or a minor foible, storytelling is a timeless communication tool.
