picture an image whatever comes to your mind okay, now think about it: what does that image mean? yes, really. make an image in your mind. tell yourself what it means, saying it out loud if that helps. be specific. congratulations: you have created, or repeated, a story. a story of the meaning of what you see. we all do this all the time and usually unconsciously. you and me, all. we see something, whether in our mind, in the world around us, in a book, a movie, on a computer's screen, and we form a story about what we see. automatically. an example we see people/ things/ circumstances and we apply meaning to them. cannot help but do so. why? because. because we make sense of life by making stories of it. because stories give us order and keep us sane. because stories help us to know we are alive. and because we can share stories with others, in the hope and plan to agree. convince. even to create, confirm. a story can have just about any meaning, even the meaning that there is no meaning in particular, or in life as a whole.
