What's your story?

Stories have always been a medium to educate and entertain.  

This is because, “once you allow yourself to identify with the people in a story, then you might begin to see yourself in that story even if on the surface it’s far removed from your situation.” – Chinua Achebe.

 If you were asked to narrate or write your story what type would it be? Does your story inspire, engage or discourage, is it based on experiences you have had and that which you are eager to pursue. “Stories can conquer fear, you know. They can make the heart bigger.” – Ben Okri.

 Everyone has a story to tell, your next door neighbour, the shop assistant and the old lady you always say hi to on your way to work. I was sitting four seats opposite a lady in a bus, who was crying her eyes out and I could not help but wonder what her story was. Has your story defined who you are or how you view things?

In interviews you are most likely to be asked, tell me about yourself or what makes you unique? Your story could be based on different chapters of your life; professional and personal. Our best stories are those that have impacted more in our lives and usually have a sacred place in our hearts.

“There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.” – Maya Angelou. Telling our story makes us accept who we are. Your story could save a soul, inspire or make the world a better place. Is your story similar to that of Arya of the house of Stark?  Go on share your story.
