Metaphors and story telling

I’ve recently been getting into the benefits of storytelling and metaphors for therapeutic use. Every story has a different meaning to each individual; stories tend to work well with the inner logic of the left brain and bring emotion and creativity, feeding the right brain’s preference. Stories can strike a deep chord in shared experiences and operate consciously and subconsciously, conveying messages directly and indirectly.

Anyway, here is a story that struck a chord with me. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
