The Chapter You Didn't Choose: Finding Meaning in the Pages You Never Wanted to Write
We imagine our lives as books we are writing, and in that imagining, we place ourselves as authors. We will choose the plot, we believe. We will decide when chapters end and new ones begin. We will shape the narrative into something coherent, meaningful, perhaps even beautiful. This belief sustains us through ordinary difficulties, through the expected transitions of growing up, leaving home, finding love, building work, raising children, growing old. These chapters we understand. They are the ones we signed up for.
