Answer:

If something happens directly to you, and you share a story about it, you are a primary source for that story. If someone else takes your story and tells that to someone else, they are a secondary source. "Tells the story to someone else" can include interpretations, articles, and analyses.

I would word this differently, btw. My wording's not great.
