Sunday Stories


Sunday Stories

I found this photo on Pinterest this week. I love photos and memes that make me think. This one made me think about stories and how they influence our lives, from the first picture books we have read to us (if we are lucky), to the tales our family members tell us, to the books we read now. Stories are powerful things, and they are, inevitably, about people.

Some tales are about people in love, some are about people rising above adversity, and some are cautionary tales about what someone did that didn’t work out well - either for them, or someone else, or both. Stories are often the first lessons we learn, and the way we learn things throughout our life.

The main thought I had from all this is that we should live our lives so the stories told about us someday will be good ones. Maybe, hopefully, inspirational ones. Ones that help someone stand taller, do better, and motivate them to pass on their own stories.

What will your story be?

From the Big Blue Book of Ballet Secrets:

Motivational Secret #50:
“Eventually we all become a story. What will yours be?”
