Your grandpa’s got a whole lifetime of stories in his head.” CARLIE INGALIS ‘ow we live our lives determines what kind of story we can tell. Every day we choose to dive deep into life or watch it pass by. ‘We can live an epic life without visiting exotic places or having extray- agant experiences: we just need to engage in the epic-ness of our own, backyards and any where our feet might tread. When we live with this, attitude, stories emerge, stories we can't help but share. ‘When Caroline’s mother passes away, her grieving father loses the will tolive. He resolves to wait passively and watch his if end—until Albert asks about his childhood. A story erupts from his brittle soul, and he becomes a passionate storyteller of his past. Like Grandpa Holbrook, my grandmother lost her spouse after forty-seven years of marriage. Grandma Lou was a storyteller when ‘we were growing up. I remember the famous childhood tale of life on her family farm in Minnesota, hunting down a chicken with an axe— and then her expression when she told us how the headless chicken. chased her around the bamyard. She said killing Sunday dinner was the worst ofall chores. I must have heard that story a hundred times. Aftcr my grandfather died, Grandma Lou kept right on living. Her adventures and memories only became more epic, not because the experiences were grand, but because every day captivated her.
