A Story Is A Story Is A Story Is A Story

What if my story is the fact that I want a story? 

A character.
A character who wants something.
A character who wants something and overcomes conflict.
A character who wants something and overcomes conflict to get it.

I want a story.
I want a beautiful and meaningful story. A memorable story.
I want a purpose.
I want to be different at the end of my story than I was at the beginning. 

It sounds so complicated, and yet...and yet I feel calmer. I feel a little more hopeful. But I stress a little. I just hope I'm not tricking myself into thinking I'm living a story when I'm really not.

See what I mean about lies and truth. I can barely tell the difference anymore, if at all.
