The latest issue of the Journal of Contemporary Narrative Therapy is online now, free for anyone to read and full of great reflections like this quote from Rebecca Solnit…
“What’s your story about? It’s all in the telling. Stories are compasses and architecture; we navigate by them, we build our sanctuaries and our prisons out of them, and to be without a story is to be lost in the vastness of a world that spreads in all directions like arctic tundra or sea ice…We tell ourselves stories that save us and stories that are the quicksand in which we thrash and the well in which we drown… We think we tell stories, but stories often tell us … The task of learning to be free requires learning to hear them, to question them, to pause and hear silence, to name them and then to become the storyteller.”
