You have at your disposal, the power, the ancient enduring power, of one of the longest surviving threads of culture, of community, of survival.

...

How are you going to use it

to show your children or grandchildren how it could be for them, how to live?

to really communicate what you know and what you can do for your clients?

...

Just as the ancient hunters told stories of their kill, shared the glory of their success,

and in doing so, taught the others of their clan what it is to be a hunter,

how it is that you hunt, and renewed their bravery, their fierce commitment to succeed,

...

will you share stories of what it is that you do?

...

Just as the ancient carers told stories of illnesses and their challenges met,

shared the heart-felt anguish of raising or losing children and loved ones to the harsh conditions,

taught the others of their clan what it is to be a parent, a carer, a medicine woman,

how it is that you heal and nurture, and renewed their strength, their fierce commitment to succeed,

...

will you share stories of what it is that you do,

of what is possible,

of what is needed?

...

Will you tell the stories that lead a movement, that make a cause glow and beckon

and urge its followers on to the vision it holds for them?

Will you re-shape the events of the past into a new narrative, a useful way forward, a new way of seeing?

...

Will you do that for yourself,

for the world?

Will you do it for your family, your clients?

...

Your story matters - it gives you not just the opportunity, but the power to leave a legacy.

...

...

You are a storyteller and you have a story to tell .

This is your message - your legacy
