Everyone Has A Story

Submitted by James Higginbotham on July 27, 2009 – 4:17 amOne Comment

I was reminded today that everyone has a story. Most days, we are too busy to listen to it. We have too many podcasts, television shows, YouTube videos, SMS text messages, and Facebook apps to care.

Those of us willing to listen will realize that people are interesting. People have stories about their personal lives,business, and history.They have stories that reveal their dreams, and stories that reveal their triumph over tragedy.

When was the last time you listened to a story from someone you lead?
