"El arte de contar historias está llegando a su fin porque el lado épico de la verdad, la sabiduría, se está extinguiendo"
— Walter Benjamin

Simplified Meaning:
People are losing the skill of telling stories because the deep truths and important lessons from those stories are disappearing. Imagine a grandparent who used to share fascinating tales full of life lessons. Nowadays, less and less of this wisdom is being passed on, and as a result, storytelling feels less meaningful. For example, think about how ancient cultures had myths and legends that taught important values like bravery, kindness, and honesty. If we stop sharing these stories or forget their deeper messages, we also lose the wisdom hidden in them. To apply this to your life, try to listen carefully to stories or experiences from older generations and learn from them so you can tell them to others, keeping that wisdom alive.
