" Narrative writing about the self is a chiral process, not a symmetrical, achiral process. An object or a system is chiral if a person cannot superpose the object upon its exhibited mirror image. Although narrative writing is an embodiment of the self, human beings’ predilection to simplify data through imposition of a narrative arc over complex sets of data typically leads to an imprecise replication. The only way to avoid the narrative fallacy is by examining the clarity of the story and methodically assessing the narrator’s reliability in collecting, analyzing, presenting facts and the validity of the narrative including the objective aspect, the emotional aspect, social aspect, and moral aspect.
