CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION

The incidents in a narrative tell something about how people feel, act, react, or think in a certain situation. The word experience may refer, somewhat ambiguously, both to mentally unprocessed immediately perceived events as well as to the purported wisdom gained in subsequent reflection on those events or interpretation of them.
