Storytelling

Our intelligence - the capacity to remember information, to learn and our ability to communicate effectively with each other - is what sets us apart from all other species.  Storytelling is base in the combination of these three aspects of humanity.  We experience, process and pass on accounts of events in our lives to those who are significant to us.  The variations from factual to artful, from intimate to broadcasting, from ritualistic to survivalist, and from simplistic to convoluted are legion.  All humanity has always partaken in storytelling and always will.
