Looking for Inspirational Stories?

03/19/09

My research into stories in the past few years have uncovered a number of stories that go well beyond a clever plot to amuse my listeners. They hint at a direction, or perhaps a meaningful message. They could even suggest a moral. It does not really matter what name you give to this elusive quality. It is more important that the stories I tell possess it. I call them inspirational stories.

Inspirational stories give listeners something to chew on. They can mull it over long after they heard the story. As a result, their internal compass points a bit closer to "true north."

Go to the "Listen" page of my website. There are a number of story samples where you are liable to find some meaningful direction. And you are likely to find the inspirational stories sticking in your mind. The fact is, inspirational stories actually inspire everybody, even the storyteller!

As we travel along the highway of life in this fast moving, complex world, we can all use a little "inner" direction. The twists and turns can be dizzying and confounding. Inspirational stories help keep us on the road. It is like having your very own GPS. You can find plenty of inspirational stories in all of my recordings. Listen for yourself!
