Reader,

The older I get the more grateful I’ve become for the stories people share about the experiences that shaped their lives.

It’s not so much what we learn about others from these stories, as it is what we learn about ourselves in listening to them. Today’s podcast episode illustrates this relational principle you may want to consider for yourself.

I tell the story in today’s show of an accidental breakfast I had with an older man from another country, and how it lifted me out of myself when I was in an especially bad mood.

Until Next week, I wish you all the joy that you can wish.*
