Summary/Abstract: In times of difficulty, people rely on their narrating self, not only to release what they are going through but, more importantly, to express an intention of how they want to live given the presence of a particular problem, thereby living accordingly upon that intention. The Narrating Self is not the problem solver. Instead, it is the living supporter.
