In my line of work, I have the privilege of collecting stories.
Some of these stories are distressing, even painful. Others tell of integrity, courage and compassion. They bring to surface that one, familiar question:
“What would I have done if it were me?”
Sometimes life seems to be wrapped in fog. But then a humbling story reaches through the haze of uneasiness, taking us through time and place right to the core of what life is all about.
Humbling stories are not tales about heroes and villains. They are stories from real life that remind us of what might happen if we are guided by our hearts.
