"Red Sky in the Morning"

I think that there were some good points and interpretations during class. From what I understand, people have an urge to share their experiences through stories, but whoever is hearing the story really can't fully understanding or experience from only listening to what happened. Not everything can be conveyed through words and the person listening to the story can take their own interpretation and create their own mental picture. The experience itself can't be duplicated or relived by words coming out of someone's mouth who was there. The sequence of events and thoughts or even emotions can be vocalized, but they can't be recreated in the exact same way. The person telling the story only has a mental picture or memory and may not even be able to convey the story accurately. Stories are the closest we can get, but they can't be the same as the experience.
