Izvērtējot notikušo

Stāsts par notikušo (visdažādākie žanri) ir kā glezna, kuru tu zīmē un vairāk vai mazāk paskaidro tās skatītājam - lasītājam - DOMĀTĀJAM.

Vēstures "izkropļošana" - nepatīkamas atšķirības zināmo vēstures faktu, notikumu izvērtēšanā.

Tāpat ir atšķirības netveramo parādību izvērtējumā. Piem., ko domāja, kāpēc domāja tas vai cits cilvēks tajā momentā, dienā; kādas alternatīvas viņš izskatīja, pārdomāja un kādēļ viņš/viņa pieņēma to vai citu lēmumu savām un citu darbībām. Atšķirības izvērtējumos par to, kas noritēja "toreiz" cilvēka/u prātos.


Kāpēc ir atšķirības, pie tam ļoti bieži - milzīgas atšķirības izvērtējumos, par to ir jārunā īpaši.
