For the people who fail these challenges, there is no story. They lose their story, in some sense, unless they reframe it around something different. The author is able to be aware of this state of affairs despite remaining subject to it on some level.</text><parent_chain><item><author>tayo42</author><text>People keep saying this is beautify written and stuff, but I feel like I just read a research paper in a topic I don&amp;#x27;t know about.
