The Traveling Wizard

Welcome to The Apple Seed! Some time filled with stories for you and your family. Since 2013 we’ve been bringing you tall tales, personal tales, fairy tales, historical tales and more. All kinds of tales, from all kinds of tellers. Who are we? Are we the heroes of our own lives? Are we just lumps of DNA packaged and pre-coded to behave a certain way? Do we have a say in who we get to be? Is our identity something we find along the way, or is it something we get to build ourselves? In the words of the great George Bernard Shaw, “Life isn’t about finding oneself. Life is about creating oneself.” We have the boundless potential to be anyone and anything. In today’s stories, we’ll get to hear a lot about people discovering who they are, and making choices about who they are going to be.
