RE: ADSactly Folklore: Campfire Stories
From this series, this posdt is my favorite, @ladyrebecca. I have been able to find myself in the story you tell. My family always used the night to get together to tell stories, we also did it around the table and when we went to sleep. Although I don't have children, I usually read stories to my nieces and nephews who get excited and enjoy the stories as I did as a child. The stories we tell not only serve to create memories, but also bonds with others. I have a niece who always tells me: Tell me the story you used to tell me when I was sad. That memory, my voice and the story, will always be in it even if I die. You found this post very beautiful, @ladyrebecca. Congratulations.
Indeed, we never lost the passion for stories. My kids used to do the same when their cousins came over... always stories till well past midnight. I don't why we still associate night with story-telling time... we don't gather to tell stories in the afternoon... it has to be dark.
