Difficult Questions

Hello And Welcome Back To The Waffle-Free Storytelling Podcast! This week's story has a strange beginning... Last weekend I attended a storytelling workshop run by Dorian Haarhoff where thirteen people got together on Zoom to create stories out of memories. "Difficult Questions" was triggered by the prompt: Think of a childhood memory that shaped you... stands out... proved a turning point in life. It didn't have to be a big event - because the things that change our lives are often quite small. In this case, it was a question from a kid at school. I was around 7, I think, and a fellow 7-year-old asked me what my star sign was. Not only did I not know what my star sign was, but I also didn't know WHAT a star sign was!! I felt tiny, ignorant and stupid. I didn't take me long to find out all I could about star signs, but that didn't stop the awkward feeling every time I was asked a question I didn't know the answer to, particularly when it was assumed everyone should know! And that's how this story came about. So, put your feet up... pick up a mug of something delicious... and join me for this week's tale. When you're done, you're welcome to visit https://tinakonstant.com/ and enjoy more waffle-free storytelling. Tina P.S.... STAY IN TOUCH!
