Everyone who spoke was affected in a different way by a different story, and all of us as listeners also connected in an unique way. From personal stories to Bible stories that everyone knows, every story has a meaning.

Many times, we go through things that we really don't want to go through. We wonder why anything like that would have to happen. But everything happens for a reason, and if we share our story and the meaning behind it, people around us will be able to take something from it and learn something about us. Although it may make us feel vulnerable, sharing our expierences with others really does help both ourselves and the listener. People can get advice, wisdom, encouragement, or a feeling of love just from listening to one story. And when no one has to hide anything, we can experience freedom like we never have before--because we know that we are accepted for who we are.
