The old stories and narratives - I am trying to clarify my posting from above - is what&#039;s keeping up stuck and in the past, not helping our nation to adapt to the contemporary times, to the new realities. Our old stories are keeping us back from advancing as a nation. 

In the absence of new stories and narrative, in the absence of a context that applies to Armenia and Armenians as a whole,  our new generation, who are getting educated in western ways and ideas, are not able to help advance the nation of Armenia but instead  have no choice but to apply themselves to the context and narrative, to the way of being and thinking that their resident countries and societies offer their people. These people may be Americans or French or Canadians or Argentinians or Lebanese.

We need to get away from our old stories, not deny them but knowing that they exist, come up with new stories, new narratives where global, inclusive ideas of Armenians are considered. Narratives which will help explain the position, the identity, the tasks and duties of Armenians everywhere, both in Armenia and the Diaspora.
