What is the hidden story behind the simplest object in your home, like a wooden chair, that you use every day without a second thought?

An Example Story: The Wooden Chair’s Journey

Picture a wooden chair in your room.

It started as an acorn in a forest, sprouting into a strong oak tree, soaking up sun and rain for years.

High in its branches, a family of squirrels made their home, scampering along the bark, hiding acorns in cozy nooks, and chattering through sunny days.

Their nest, woven from twigs and leaves, swayed gently in the breeze, a safe haven for their playful leaps.

One day, a woodcutter’s axe brought it down, and its trunk was sliced into planks at a sawmill, each ring marking time.

A carpenter chose one plank, shaping and sanding it with care, turning it into a chair with sturdy legs and a smooth back.

Now it sits in your home, holding you through meals or moments of rest.

What’s its story whispering to you? What other objects around you have tales to tell?
