Stories to Live by: Tales of Wisdom for Recovering People
$7.16
Description
Stories give us a way to deal with our monsters. We get to experience the terror of the fight through the story. We feel the sorrows, joys and triumphs of the hero from the safety of the story. Stories have the ability to bypass the intellect and speak directly to the heart and the emotions. The wisdom of the ages can be communicated through one simple tale. A well crafted story can teach us truths in a way that we not only learn but experience. This is a book of stories. But, it is not a traditional recovery story book. The ancient rabbis used a method of teaching they called “stringing pearls.” This involved telling a series of seemingly unrelated stories which all explained a different aspect of the same topic. Like holding a diamond up to the light, the stories reflect in the facets of the thing being taught; imparting hidden wisdom. This book is my string of pearls.
