Module 1 Abstracting-Evaluating Discussion

You've finished the article that explains the Structural Differential and the abstracting-evaluating process. In that article, I use the example of Emily and her "somebody cut me off" story to illustrate how her statement that somebody cut me off did not accurately map the territory of her actual experience while driving. 

For 30 points, share a story from your own experiences, or make up a story, that could be used to illustrate the process by which we abstract from an event, to an experience, to a description, to inferences. Please keep your stories short, no more than 200 words.

After you've posted your story, feel free to comment on other stories.
