There's a social and human necessity for some kind of continuity, but it's not axiomatic and not something you're born into; it's something you have to work at. and one of the ways to work at it - perhaps the best - is storytelling: telling stories about yourself to others, telling stories about yourself to yourself, telling stories about others to others.
Telling Stories Way Kind
I learned about the strength you can get from a close family life. i learned to keep going, even in bad times. i learned not to despair, even when my world was falling apart. i learned that there are no free lunches. and i learned the value of hard work.

Trying Lucky Warning
When you feel good, everything around you is good, when everything around you is great, everything makes you happy. you are loving everything that is around you, because you are loving yourself. because you like the way you are. because you are happy with your life. you are happy with the movie that you are producing, happy with your agreements with life. you are at peace, and you are happy. you live in that state of bliss where everything is so wonderful, and everything is so beautiful. in that state of bliss you are making love all the time with everything that you perceive.
