We’re all born storytellers to be in the book of life.

Whether we’re aware of it or not, we’re all born storytellers.

Since the first human discovered the gift of talking, listening and then reading and writing the communication gift led the human race to discover so many ways to communicate from fax to cell phone to social media and the future of communication is unlimited.

One day we can communicate with the spirit world and can see the unseen.It was a crazy idea to think of TV, radio, phone, and computer thousands of years ago and if you were living in those days and talk about it, they will call you a crazy person and Lough on your stories. In the future we will have a machine that can read minds and design ideas that you think f it and will be able to advance the cloning methods to have more food as most of our farms will be lab farms area and clones farm.

From the moment we’re born, life is never-ending rivers of experience lead us to the sea of dreams and hopes to the ocean of wisdom. As we get older, the way we make sense of reality is to adapt to the new change in ur self and our life and try to be more intelligent by adopting to new ideas and new changes in life and make sets of rules and tell more stories to others so they can copy us or have their own ideas and dreams that can change their lives in this universe of Destiny

Stories passed to us from the holy books, culture books, comic books can take hold of our inner beliefs and can play the big role of what we will be in the future.Those sets of believing that we heard, listened to or tell others about will shape our personality, our thoughts, feelings, behavior, and can influence our culture.This, in turn, determines the way we think, feel, behave, and transact with life.

Our universe and our lives are not simple as Hawkins and other atheist scientists want you to think, there is no simple answer, there is no simple equation of everything    “Life and the universe are incredibly complex. We only are starting to scratch the surface of understanding.

Every second of every day, There are lots of things going on in our environment and our lives at all times, and in order to hold onto our sense of our cultures, heritage, inner been, and our new experience in life. To do so we need to make up stories and ideas to make us understand and leave a legacy to other generation

A single story, piece of music, act of kindness, making a new dish, or drinking your favorite drink can give you a special experience and this experience can be different in each one of us as we are a special individual that can react differently to such experience.

If you see someone eat a lemon and you see him/ her eating the lemon and experience the sourness on their face you might feel the same experience just by watching and sometimes even you taste lemon in your mouth. But f that person start rubbing the lemon on her breasts per say you will feel different as she is trying to prove your imagination not just your test buds

Imagining the experience and been in it are two different things we might not be satisfied as we based our experience on assumption and high expectation so we learn the new experience of adopting to our expectation.

Your dreams sometimes give you a reinforcement to boost yourself steam and make you more confident to try again, it is all about learning and adapting to the change that makes us intelligent creatures.

When you are having a bad day, at home or work, with your boyfriend or girlfriend, with your teacher or at school, with your family or health you start feeling bad and you will try to tell others your story to make sense of things, or you might go somewhere having drink with a friend or alone talking to the bartender and ask yourself why I did this or that? and start blaming yourself.

and get stressed out for those events that took place on your bad day. There is no bad day but bad events took place in your day, those events led you to have the bad experience can shape your future decisions as we learn from our mistakes and learn to adapt to new challenges but we all use storytelling to ourselves ,friends and families as by telling others it provides with pressure valve and stress reduction method to help us heal, understand and be excepted again .

When some you love so much tell you that you are only a friend and she/ he are not interested in your and don’t feel romantic with you, the first question you will ask yourself is why? What’s wrong? How you can change and adopt.

You are trying to change yourself to fit another person expectations. You will try to live up to other person expectation but it doesn’t work like at all as the other person has formulated his/her ideas about romance based on their experience. They will tell you it is not you and that you are smart, wise, nice good person but there is no chemistry between both of you. You in another hand will try to change that and react and get upset and sad without excepting the other person honesty and that is greed and pathetic way to do so as it shows that you can except rejection.

It is not really rejection or defeat, it is not a war it the honesty and truth of someone has a bad experience or formulated their ideas regarding dating certain people.Then you start telling yourself and other people stories and will use this new experience to reject others that resemble that person out of fear, you will try to be harsh on yourself and judgmental because you do not accept this new corner lot ( friend zone ), she/he put you in.

Try to accept the new experience and move on and don’t look back it is ok to be friendly and life is full of new experiences. It is all about our ego.

Passing our experience to our kids, families, friends must be true and not based on fake stories and false information as that can change everything. Our societies can be changed by teaching the truth and kindness and sometimes we have to sugar coat the bitter truth so to not hurt other people feeling.

When we are children we can be happy for n reason at all, as it is a natural thing because if we were happy for a reason we will be in big troubles when that reason took away from us we will fall in a state of sadness and despair. That’s why you should be happy to be a friend if someone doesn’t want you as a romantic partner, try to teach yourself to not expect anything, be happy for that moment with that person no matter what the level of your involvement is. Be happy for them and sacrifice your love and be happy with yourself, be a good friend.

Life is a storybook mix with Facebook, we see faces and names we interact with others, learn and teach each other and sometimes we get jealous and envy others but in the end all of us are in this together we must pull together  despite our cultural differences and background as we all have experiences and stories to tell this will make the sea of knowledge ,information and wisdom to help us all to adapt to change and understand this complex universe .

Each culture teaches its people that they are strong together, belong to great history and they can change and alter their future by following sets of believers and protocols  ,some take this teaching to extreme and alter the destiny of others in positive or negative ways and another take it and try to adopt with the society and cultures around him/her.  The key factor here is a balance, mainstream, true information and storytelling to gain the positive experience that everybody deserves.

When I was 8 years old got drowned in swimming pool as I didn’t know how to swim and was sitting on the deep end of the pool dangling my legs in the cool water when a little child pushed me from behind. I struggle in the water and more I struggle more I drunk the water, and more I was sucked in the deep, I hated that experience, and my mother was in my mind, I was worried about her because I know she will cry for me for a long time, then in one second I gave up struggling, looked up at the sun rays that was dancing at the surface while sinking deeper and wondering what will happen next, and my eyes closed.

Suddenly I found myself on the side of the pool with people around me and two other men were trying to push n my chest and belly and I was vomiting lots of water. I smiled because I know I wasn’t alone in that pool underwater, there was that hope in my heart to see my mother again and hope that God can help me and those who did were his tools who pulled me out.

That act of people kindness and bravery to save a child gave me a new experience in life and the way I look at things. I know that if the crime or evil act went unpunished this will lead to unjust and life will be unbalanced and that one single kindness can alter the future of mankind.

Whatever your life has been, and whatever role you’ve inadvertently cast yourself, it’s essential to recognize that you are the hero of your dreams, the author, the actor and sometimes the villain in the book of life. We have all been in bad situations, trauma, injuries, broken hearts, fail an exam, rejection, deny a job or pushed aside because of our skin color or background, we all suffered the unkind words of others, losing family members to illness and experienced struggle and hardship n our life.

God always with us, he is always one pray away, he is our lifeline but all we need to do is to kneel with humiliation and ask him. All we need to do is to be humble and be kind to others as when we start helping others and helping our community, the community will change gradually by the act of kindness but we must start changing ourselves, accepting the new challenge and responsibilities, admit that we are in need of God help and we must pull each other to safety in Godship of life , God is the director of our stories, and we choices the experiences and we must accept the outcome of our choices .Then we either alter our curse and follow the way and the truth to safety or drift away in the sea of sins, arrogance, and ignorance.

We must stop every now and then and reassess our lives, our stories, our dreams and our beliefs and ask our self the important equation and that is; are we close or drifted away from God the controller and director of our life story? Are we copycatting other people stories and living a lie? Are we in tone with the manuscript of life that given by God and that is his words and holy books?

Make sure to be in the book of life, with the right scripts, with the right kind people and accept God as your savior from the abyss of darkness. God loves you more than you think to be his friend and good follower and he will rewrite your story with a beautiful ending.

Forgive and forget the bad things that others said about you and wish them all the best, life is too short to worry about other people stories, you have your own life story to write.Make your storytelling in tune with God so your next generation will be proud of it and follow your footsteps and finish what you started.

Thank you for reading my story.
