In our daily lives time (consciousness) is usually at the back of our consciousness. However, it comes to the fore and appears in one's narratives when a mental crisis occurs. Modernization had assisted in the growth of the consciousness of time within an individual. The narration one's story endlessly signifies to him/herself, that he/she was restrained from creating a life story in his/her own way. Clients told (retold) their hopeless and miserable stories in order to reconstruct and conclude their life story. Having worked with a therapist, they displayed their abilities to remake stories and operate the rigid passage of time. Such abilities are considered to be very important for them to live a sufficient life and receive the Last Judgment without fear. Some cases of female clients show that a dominant story based on an idea of progress intends to push female time and stories aside from the main stream of their stories. This point should be considered and analyzed in a future research.
