Jack and the Beanstalk, Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, Adam and Eve, The Christmas Story, Brave New World, The Handmaids Tale.

Once upon a time there was you. There is still you. What has saved your life? What nearly destroyed you? What do you do to keep from falling into despair? What gives your life meaning? What concerns you right now, in this minute? Is it something that will be an issue in a hundred years?
