life narrative

A life narrative is the story a person tells about their life, weaving together their experiences, choices, and feelings to create a coherent identity. It helps individuals make sense of who they are by connecting past events with present circumstances and future goals. This ongoing story shapes self-understanding, influences behavior, and provides meaning to life’s journey. Everyone's life narrative is unique, reflecting personal values, culture, and perspective, and it can evolve over time as new experiences and insights are integrated.
