    A story must be told in such a way that it constitutes help in itself. My grandfather was lame. Once they asked him to tell a story about his teacher. And he related how the holy Baal Shem used to hop and dance while he prayed.

That's how to tell a story.

That is why people sell synthetic rose and end up poisoning themselves. It shouldn't be that way.
