I wonder how important story telling really is to us humans. I was thinking for a moment that we were losing the art of story telling, but then I realized how flooded we are. Story telling is a big business these days and is so ubiquitous, it is hard to see it until you realize the scope of it all.

Everywhere you look via all sorts of media are stories being distributed, packaged and sold. I realized today that the art of story telling is probably one of the highest valued skill a person can possess.

Just look at the great story tellers of all time. William Shakespeare to Stan Lee, they are revered, adored, and have become monumentally influential.

Makes me wonder if I should consider the art of story telling myself.
