Experiment: Refracting

Nothing under the sun is new. Energy is not gained or lost, it merely changes shape.
Choose a fairy tale. Rewrite the tale, actively incorporating elements of your own history, dreams, reflections, etc. Make it at least half a page long.
It may depart drastically from the original story line. In fact it may be completely unrecognizable. Your objective is to process the essence of that old tale through your modern light processing machinery. The essence of the tale should be refracted through you as a sun beam through a kaleidoscope. Give it a new shape. Make it be new and completely transformed through the power of your attention.
