Overview
Not only are stories important, they can be literally lifesaving. I was born and raised in a cult that splintered off Scientology in the 60s. I was raised by the cult, not my parents. I didn’t have anyone I could trust and was being constantly emotionally and physically abused and never had anything stable.
Until I found stories. Worlds I could go into and leave any time. Full of people I could see myself in as they overcame impossible odds.
Stories like Rocky, Bridge to Terabithia, Lord of the Rings, and many more.
Here’s how they saved my life and how I think stories can help save yours too.
