Stories.
It's at the Beginning of a tale when the very heart of what it is all about is revealed.
The Middle, the End... these also play a large role in unraveling the truth about the meaning of a tale, but nothing should say it so plainly as the very Beginning.
The Beginning draws the reader in. A writer can tell so much that the reader may guess the ending, but can also tell so little that one feels draw to discover how that end may come about.
What makes a story so special? Is it the characters, and how loveable they are? Is it the drama, the plot, the atmosphere, or the words? No.
A story goes far deeper than words. It goes far deeper than the skill with which the story is woven, or even the material the writer has chosen for his or her craft.

What makes a story special is the writer.
What goes into a story is not just ideas or dreams or words... it is the writer. Their thoughts, feelings, needs, and yes, even their very heart must be poured into a story to make it so very special.

It
seems to be quite proven that the stories which are close to us are the
ones we grew up with, the ones we treasured, the ones that became a
part of us.
Stories go beyond teaching us morals or guiding us on a path with a character to which we can relate, or through mysterious lands, or into curious circumstances in which we wish to partake. Stories tells us who we are when we least know what to think. They are our teachers, our friends... they flow through our beings like our own blood and are equally as essential.

Those
who live apart from stories lack the fervor, the excitement, the love
which we who cling to stories have in full. It is a dry, coarse world
which neglects to stop and pay attention to the little things, to
remember a childhood fantasy, a poem tied more firmly around their being
than their own name...
There is something inexplicably personal about stories because a story is made up of a person.
This is what makes a story believable.
