The Word

The word is clarity of thought. Our imaginations are ours and ours alone. In that sense, we are unique.

But there is something we all share: words.

The components of language connect us to each other as we all try to make sense of the world through our imperfect lenses.

Stories are powerful because they attempt to provoke shared emotions and feelings. There is no more powerful tool for us.

Stories are the reason Columbus sailed. Stories are the reason we landed on the moon.

We are all stories, and that is why we love them.
