Why we understand life better through stories?

Simplii Mrunalii by Mrunalii Jadhav

Episode notes

I’ve noticed something about the way I learn.

I don’t just remember facts.

I remember stories.

I remember the feeling of a moment, the way a character made a decision, the way something changed because of that decision.

And sometimes I wonder—

Why do stories stay with us so deeply?

Why do fairytales, something so simple, feel like they teach us more than direct advice ever could?
