Dear Humans,

Despite what adults probably tell you all the time about the “real world,” we all spend a lot of time in imaginary worlds. When we think about what we’ve done in the past or worry about what we’ll do in the future, we’re living in an imaginary world.

Humans are storytellers. So much of our “reality” is the story that we tell about ourselves and our world. And here’s the important thing about the story you tell about yourself: you get to be your own hero!

Life is not something that happens to us. No matter our situation, we get to tell our own story. And if we get good enough at telling that story, then it just might become “reality.”

Sincerely,

Mr. Heimbuck
