@bakedin #stories

Few pages are left before I'm done reading one of the best books of the year. From the last wednesday -21- that I got Baked In in the mail, I've been devouring page after page leaving marks more often than not to signal a lesson.
The last one I've read tonight is about "Stories worth spreading": a lesson that vibrates poetry in every word.

Stories work well at connecting people because they are baked into our DNA.
Our stories, and the ability to share them, are what make us human. resonate
They bring context and meaning to everything we do.
Stories carry our hopes, dreams, and values.
They arouse our curiosity and invite us to wonder.
They resonate deeply in our souls.
And, told well, they stick in our minds forever.

(Gregory Colbert)
