story telling

i agree with the passage. i think story telling is a major part of society. when people talk about their days they are technically telling a story. without story telling communication would be totally different. story telling helps keep history alive in a way because people pass down the stories they've encountered throughout their lives. without story telling we would only know about half of the history we do now. also some of the greatest stories are ones that still are not written down. almost all people create themselves with the stories they tell. just by hearing one story by someone you can figure out what kind of person they are for the most part. if a person tells their story with great detail they are probably a person who likes detail. if someone lacks details they may be someone who doesn't care about much. so for the most part story telling is needed for the modern world. even telling something as simple as a fairytale to your children can be very powerful. i believe it is all in how you use the skill
