The magic of metaphor
Share this article:
I am reading a book by Nick Owen called “The magic of metaphor”.
It is a collection of stories designed to engage, inspire and transform the listener and the reader. He looks at the whole idea of story-telling and pulls out the power of the story-teller when giving a story from memory rather than reading it out.
I found this great quote last night:
“When we begin to understand the patterns and structures of our thinking, we can start to liberate ourselves from enslavement to our limitations.”
It is one of those sentences that rattles around in your head if you let it. Give it a little time to set off sparks.
