Love it. After spending time with family — OMG! — we all need to step back and figure a few things out. I know I do. Thanks again.

Great post. I particularly agree with the part about stories. People are wired to get stories, particularly (no surprise here) the formulas used in folklore and fairy tales. You know, the “Once upon a time, there were 3 [pigs, bears, sons] who set out to [reach a goal] and along the way, they overcome three adversities, and while they almost get [eaten, killed, lost], they succeed and [live happily ever after, get the gold].”
