Human beings are story telling creatures. What this means is that we will seek to live out a unique life story in order to gain some sense of meaning. We will unconsciously live out that story even if it is painful to do so. This is because it would be more painful living with no story at all. Often these stories are handed down through the family line. Some stories are tragic, some sad, some about abandonment, some about courage and heroism, and some are liberating and about an expanding horizon of possibility.
Clues to your life story can be found in the stories that attract you. Do you have a favourite story, fairy tale, or myth that somehow will reflects issues in your life? What is the theme of this story, and who are the main characters. How does this story relate to your life?
Now then, what story would you prefer to live? A heroic story, a spiritual story, a love story, a magical story, a poetic story, a community story, or a success story?
You can re-write your life story. There is no-one else writing the script. Now you know this about yourself, what is stopping you?
