Stories change lives.
When you and I tell our stories,
someone may get closer to answers.
We see each other in our shared stories.
Comfort is found, and we connect.
It relieves that “I am alone” feeling.

Contemplative Literature Changes Us
“When we read & hear each other’s stories,
told from the heart, it gives us inspiration to keep on going.”
