Apparently our lives are not stories. Mind blown!

Adrian raised in this week’s symposium that there are zero narrative structure to our lives. The perception of this is only created through our psychological needs for structure of everyday routines, because simply, everyone’s doing it.

We all wake up when the sun rises, have our meals at certain times of the day and go to sleep to end the day. There you have the beginning, middle, and end which is essentially the structure of a narrative?

What about past events in our lives that we tell as stories to our friends, are they just a memory?
