At minimum, consider the reasoning that informs the various narratives of cultural events. Clearly, some perspectives are realistic, others predicated upon the emotional desire for particular outcomes.

Set aside those frames of reference outside one's individual approaches and interpretations of ideas and events, and reflect upon the significance of personal experience.
Listen, and hear the original imagination.
