Narrative allows people to keep and re-tell their life stories not only describes the experience of the past, but also create the future. When we are realizing and thinking about our life experience, in fact, we are exploring the meaning of life. As works of art, narrative inquiry expresses one’s inner meaning, belief, and value of life. This paper is to analyze the nature of narrative, discusses the aesthetic nature of life experience through narrative inquiry; it also brings up the controversy on reality and fiction over narrative to express life experience, and stress the narrative inquiry as a research method which must be highlighted on research ethics to avoid revealing the figures and bringing unnecessary harm in the narrative inquiry. The power of story comes from the authenticity that people feel about the meaning of life. The value of the narrative inquiry is to be able to show the meaning of life behind story. Narrative inquiry should be able to create possibility in educational insights by appropriately using the fictional nature of narrative and strictly observing the requirements of research ethics. 一、前言 敘說探究（narrative inquiry）作為一種闡明情境脈絡與分析事件經驗的研究方法，早已被運用在許多學科領域中。例如人類長久以來就利用說故事的方式，將生命經驗所累積的智慧一代一代的傳下去，於是口耳相傳的故事也因此成為歷史學家重要的研究資料。藉由
