“There is THAT within us that creates dreams. There is the playwright, the cinematographer. A part of us selects which 'shots' we will see. The plot and outcome of our dreams are determined. Therefore, in addition to our waking lives, we each create our personal story, our history. We connect events and experiences to form a coherent whole. A story of our lives goes on simultaneously with our waking life. We also constantly revise our story through recurrent feedback loops, for example, during a conversation between two people, as long as the communication system is maintained. A history is accumulated over time from the impact (sending and receiving) we have on each other.” — Laurence Galian
