Seven Stories That Have Shaped My Life: #1 – the one about grief and anger

There is something tremendously powerful about a good story. We’ve been telling stories as long as we can remember – around campfires and in pictures on the walls of ancient caves; in pyramids and in long-winded scrolls, on paper, in person, in poetry, in song.
