Meaning-is-constructed-not-found pattern
the structural reality that meaning does not pre-exist in events waiting to be discovered, but is actively built through interpretation, framing, and narrative — making meaning-making a skill that can be developed rather than a gift that is received
Why This Is a Pattern
Exemplifies The mind actively constructs understanding through schemas… (schemas construct understanding). Recurs in existential philosophy, narrative therapy, post-traumatic growth, career transitions.
