We create ourselves out of the stories we tell about our lives, stories that impose purpose and meaning on experiences that often seem random and discontinuous. As we scrutinize our own past in the effort to explain ourselves to ourselves, we discover - or invent - consistent motivations, characteristic patterns, fundamental values, a sense of self. Fashioned out of memories, our stories become our identities - Paul Ricoeur

 Self is a perpetually rewritten story. We are all constantly engaged in self-making narrative and in the end we become the autobiographical narratives by which we 'tell about' our lives - Jerry Bruner

Do you know YOUR own story, YOUR personal myth? You may not be aware of your particular storyline, but you can identify your life's characters, plots, and motivations, which change from scene to scene. It's up to each of us to decide whether the storybook of our life is a drama or a tragedy, a comedy or a romance - Lee Lukehart

In the telling of my story, I share what is most precious to me. As often as I need to, I will tell my story - Martha Whitmore Hickman

A man is always a teller of tales, he lives surrounded by his stories and the stories of others, he sees everything that happens to him through them and he tries to live his life as if you were telling a story - Jean Paul Sartre

If one is put here, in the midst of this incomprehensible immensity, it is necessary to serenade it somehow, by some, by any means. Go out on a limb and sing - Lilla Kalman

If one knows how to read ones self, the story of ones self, which is very complex, and requires a great deal of attention - an attentive sensitive awareness, which is easy to cultivate, then one can read about ones self. Who you are - Krishnamurti

Lots going on

"Thane of My Existence" was teched and then performed at CBC Studio 700 on January 6 at 8:00 pm as a fundraiser for Chris McGregor's Theater Bagger Arts Society. The show is now ready to go. Thanks Chris for making it happen and thanks CBC for providing the space. It was all absolutely perfect. Wow.  

The Storymyne project referred to in the video Self-knowledge - The Ignored field of knowledge, is now underway.

The storymyne system is being prepared to begin preliminary testing.

Thane of My Existence, premiered at the Dorothy Somerset Studio Theater, at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver on Oct 22, 2011. Thank you UBC for sponsoring the show, and thanks to everyone who contributed to its development and successful debut.
