H4l is the idea, in a nutshell, of finding something in your life, every day, to make a story out of. On the surface level you might think cool I guess, then you'd have a bunch of dumb stories about the crap that happens in your life, for whatever that's worth.
But what you really get from the practice is not only a bunch of stories, but a new way of seeing the world, an increased power to notice. If you've ever gotten really good at something like a musical instrument, or a sport, and then afterward you find that you can see the world in terms of that thing, or you can observe the thing and pick out elements that an untrained observer can't even detect? H4l sort of helps you do that with the actual world, and your actual life.
