From stories about our kings and
queens, to the ones about our festivals and traditions –experiences have been
shared orally for generations in the Indian society. The grandmother sitting
and talking about her childhood, or the grandfather narrating ever so joyously
about his good old days, words seem to encompass all that we feel.
In a country like ours where
after every ten miles, languages and customs change, and beliefs gain a new
understanding, stories and everyday conversations reflect our true communities/
society. There is a story behind every little thing you and I do, everyday!
Our stories are changing. You
just don’t hear stories nowadays under a beautiful big banyan tree but also in
a metropolitan city, in a coffee shop, at the bus stop, or while travelling in
the train. Stories which are unique in their own way, conversations which make
you talk about something to someone.
So, this is the time, this is the
place, record and share your story!
