Now that is a great description for a story teller. It is also reveals an important truth about truth. Really good and entertaining stories are innovative revelations of truths that are both unique and universal. Unique because they are the stories only you can tell. Universal because they tell a story that we can all understand and relate to. Some of the best stories are the ones that when you read them, you say to yourself, “Holy smokes. I thought I was the only one that thought that way!” They reveal a part of you that you have never read in any other book or shown in any movie. Suddenly, you are not quite so alone in this big world of unfamiliar strangers. You are one of them and they are just like you.
Write your letter with the knowledge that others will understand your uniqueness is a universal feeling. Be brave enough to be you. Be the first to reveal that innovative truth about being human.
