Personal Development Unplugged

Can I Tell You A Story? Once Upon A Time I think everyone loves a story and over the month I hope to sprinkle a few stories, metaphors, I've borrowed, I've evolved, and even some of my own. Why? I just love them and the effect they have had on me and my life. It seems just when you need to learn something in a subtle and gentle way the right story comes along. And I really wanted to share them with you - it's as simple as that because I know every story will affect you, maybe just a little or maybe profoundly like it did to me. Somewhere along the way, each will have a positive effect on us. I say us because even retelling these has an effect on me again - which is awesome! This first sharing is a true story of mine with a story shared to me by Norma and Phil Barretta and as I have said affected me then, some 19 years ago and every time I tell it. I hope you get what you need as I did. I'd love to know your thoughts, reactions, and any stories you would like to share. All you have to do is email this at feedb
