Some Brain Details:
Story Sharing
- Stories are a major (but not the only) form of human exchange
- Different people should be expected to have different stories
- Different stories can be valuable in ongoing exploration/creation
- Stories should be listened to rather than believed in ... lest they lead to battles over "Reality" and "Truth" and inhibit the ongoing process of exploration/discovery/creation
- The test of a story lies in its usefulness for creating new exploration/creations/stories rather than in its origins/logic/truth
