Narasi tentang kehidupan

Setiap orang adalah pembuat cerita sekaligus pemeran utama dalam cerita hidup yang ia buat. Julie Beck menulis artikel, “Life's Stories”, yang memaparkan bagaimana cerita hidup yang dibuat oleh seseorang dapat mempengaruhi masa depannya.

"In the realm of narrative psychology, a person’s life story is not a Wikipedia biography of the facts and events of a life, but rather the way a person integrates those facts and events internally—picks them apart and weaves them back together to make meaning. This narrative becomes a form of identity, in which the things someone chooses to include in the story, and the way she tells it, can both reflect and shape who she is. A life story doesn’t just say what happened, it says why it was important, what it means for who the person is, for who they’ll become, and for what happens next."

Lewat cerita hidup yang dibuat, masing-masing orang sedang merangkai makna dan saling menghubungkan segala peristiwa yang dialami.
