We are creatures who live in time and place, therefore in a world of action and consequences.
Human action is only narratized action.
In order to act as conscious, intentional and responsible beings, that is, as humans, there are a number of things that narrative encompasses that we need. We need most fundamentally to have an imagination of ourselves in relation to actions and outcomes. Without narrative we are unmotivated non-actors in nowhere and notime. That's the story, folks. 2F50 Main Page Copyright John Lye 1996.
