Life Story

     How often do we tell our own life story? How often do
     we adjust, embellish, make sly cuts? And the longer life
     goes on, the fewer are those around to challenge our
     account, to remind us that our life is not our life, merely
     the story we have told about our life. Told to others, but
     - mainly - to ourselves.

       Julian Barnes, The Sense of an Ending
