We have no home in our own story

Our material bodies have a place in physics, subject to its laws.

Our biology has a place in our textbooks and the story of evolution.

Our behaviours receive attention in psychology.

Our habits garner coverage in self-help bestsellers.

But you as a conscious subject do not have a place in this story.

You as a living psyche do not have a place in this story.

Somehow, we have all but written ourselves out of our own story.
