Are the story events, either plot or character

a big choice or dilemma.

12. This reminds me of…
With everything that has
happened to me during my
younger years (i.e., my foot
accident, stair falls and other
bumps) I was able to make a
storyline of my life alone and
identify those memories as plot,
rising action, falling action, and
denouement.

13. Usefulness in real situations
If in a situation and I see myself
struggling to know why such
thing is happening to me, I can
say to myself that it is just a part
of life story and that I will be
able to surpass it and move on
to the next level of my life or
storyline.
