I love stories.
I especially love those family stories that are told at nearly every holiday that no one tires of hearing.
I love fairy tales, too. I love that someone has the imagination to dream of cunning witches, magical enchantments, and giants.
I love folklore and myths. I love reading the creation stories of ancient societies. Have you noticed that societies try to explain their beginnings?
I love the stories of an individual. Occasionally I read obituaries to learn of the lives lived around me.
I love looking at the things collected in my grandmother's trunk, and I love listening to her explain the details of the objects that were given her.
I love sneaking away to look through all the photo albums my grandparents stow away, so I can etch all the beautiful moments of life captured into memory.
I love stories.
