Listening to a story told is like reading your own mind.

Threading a necklace of words

Opening a window

An explosion of pictures
Flying through time
From the far corners of the earth.

Listeners and teller
Together conjuring a story into life

A human
vehicle for communication
without the use of a single solitary thing!
