We all have a story, sometimes it's easy to forget that everyone has one to tell.
We are used to hearing the stories of people who are famous, or have the largest following or are in the news or write biographies.
Because of this, we can lose sight of the fact that everyone has a story about where they came from and how they got to where they are, and within each of those stories is a lesson or something we can learn from, either about ourselves or the world we live in. Some people travel a path of wealth and privilege, while others struggle with only themselves to rely on, and both have great stories to tell.
From farmers to CEOs to homeless people to world travellers, there is no end to how much we can learn from each individual.
