 +====== What is the difference between myths, legends and folk stories? ====== 
 +  
 A myth is a traditional story that endures over generations, or over centuries. It could be about an event; about a person or people; or a subtle guide on how to conduct oneself in life and the consequences of not following society’s rules. Myths are about good deeds and bad and about decisions that have disastrous consequences. There are some clear-cut ways to introduce the idea of what a myth is, but there are some grey areas too.  A myth is a traditional story that endures over generations, or over centuries.
