And he came up with this idea of redemptive versus contamination narratives, right?

So a contamination narrative is a narrative where you think, okay, everything was going right and then it all went to ruin, right?

Redemption is everything was going right, something bad happened and I learned from it and this is what I learned from it and I grew from it.

For a long time, I think my narrative was

you know, these things are, everything's going well and whatever, I'm just waiting for the other shoe to drop.

And whenever anything bad would happen, I could fall back on that narrative and say, well, see, what I think I've successfully done most of the time, at least anyway, is turn that into more of a redemptive narrative where I say, no, actually, yeah, that sucked.

Went through a lot of harrowing shit because of it and came out the other side.

And like,

I'd never want to go back to that, but I knew if, if something like that happened, I know it can go through those sorts of things.

That's a redemptive arc that I've narrative that I've reconstructed over.

It took again, probably a years, if not decade or more to, to really finish that narrative or to solidify it.

And who knows that narrative will probably fail me at someday too.

Right.

And, and that I hope I'm a little bit more.

um, prepared for, um, now that I know how this works.

I don't know.

That's how I'm kind of looking at it right now.

Like one of these, like the habits and the emotions and yeah.

So would you say too, before we get into that, sorry, would you say too, are we kind of like going down in depth with each one of these?

Do you think?
