What is a personal narrative? Is it important? What enters your mind when you think about it?

I think a personal narrative is a story told about yourself. Like an autobiography. A biography is a story told about an actual person. Autobiographies are stories told by YOU. I think A personal narrative is important because, it helps to get a first person point of view when listening to a story about another person. Its one thing to hear a story about someone else but another thing when that someone else Is telling you a story about themselves.
