The text explores the philosophical concept of life as a narrative within the context of the postmodern rejection of grand narratives. The author argues that abandoning meta-narratives inevitably leads to the fragmentation of human existence into numerous isolated small stories. However, a human being cannot remain satisfied with this unintegrated plurality, as there is an inherent need for meaning and wholeness. This need for unification requires a primary life goal that integrates individual experiences into a perspective whole. A key assertion is that this goal cannot remain confined within the boundaries of individual existence. For a life to be truly fulfilled, its purpose must transcend the limits of the individual and point toward a greater whole or transcendence. The study focuses on the existential need for unity, showing how individual episodes become a coherent story through teleological focus. Human identity is thus presented not as a sum of random events, but as a dynamic process of seeking meaning that overcomes temporal limits. This perspective offers a way to understand the human condition as a meaningful whole in an era often characterized by fragmentation and the loss of overarching direction.
