#MyStory – What is your story?

My husband always asks me: “Roma, how do you have the patience to listen to our elderly parents’ stories for hours on end?” 

It’s because I love stories. 

Through stories we can experience each other’s experiences, share our feelings and perspectives, become a part of each other’s lives and most importantly, we get to draw our own learning lessons from every story!

Our current climate and its challenges are birthing story after story that will make history! To me hi-story is the “hindsight story”. As a global community, the stories we write today will be stories we will share in hindsight with our grandchildren!

I would love to hear these “high-stories” from all of you. These stories of high fear, anxiety, stress, sadness, anger and frustration that we are balancing daily with higher connectedness, equanimity, compassion, kindness, and laughter!

Every day, I will pick stories that move us all and open them up for discussions and learning. I will share stories that have moved me and made me really think about the possibilities of our current climate. Please share your #MyStory below in the comments section or email me directly at mystory@toolsofgrowth.com. I look forward to hearing from you!

Today I would like to share a story about a mother who’s two young boys regularly fight when home. Staying home, and having everyone home at the same time, was something that she dreaded when the Stay-At-Home order started. Although her story starts with fear and uncertainty, as a parent, you’ll soon find it moving you as it moved me.

Watch this video on instagram or facebook to like, share, or discuss the importance of this movement with me!
