If we are to maintain our liveliness and sense of adventure at all, we’d better be sure to keep listening in on storytellers and manufacturing plenty of good yarns ourselves. Living some great yarns is the best option, since then the story hour emerges naturally from merely answering “how was your day?” or having an ordinary session of reminiscence with friends. However it flies, keep finding the next installment of your serial epic whether by living it or by inventing it or by having it spoon-fed to you by experts. Here are a few mini episodes just to get you started. I’m helpful that way.

Be prepared! Wherever the adventures take you, you might as well be ready for them . . .

If you happen to get bumped off, it's especially important to present yourself in your best light--someone will comment!

No matter how nutty you are, the world will remember you as The One with the Great Stories. Gotta like that!
