But we can all agree that a story doesn't have to be literal to be about something authentic.
like how Little Red Riding Hood isn't exactly factual, but it teaches us about the danger of talking to strangers, or how the tortoise and the hare has never once been about racing.
It's about patience, how slow and steady always crosses the finish line first.
Ancient myths also have deep meanings, like how Medusa's story isn't really about a monster at all.
It's about a woman who had something taken from her, who was transformed by her trauma and then punished for surviving it.
who became a cautionary tale when really she was the one who deserved the warning.
So perhaps the question was never whether Medusa really ever existed, because a part of her always has.
She lives inside everyone who was ever wronged then blamed for it, and everyone who was transformed by something they didn't choose, and yet had to find a way to carry it all.
I'm sure a lot of inventors throughout history felt the same way.
Like Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Edison, Hedy Lamarr, and Steve Jobs.
They created life-changing new technology during their lifetimes.
But one of the most fascinating and mysterious of them all was Nikola Tesla.
He's famous for building one of the world's first and most efficient electric generators, for designing automatic motors and lots of the equipment we use in power plants and factories.
But he also made some other miraculous discoveries.
Ones that never really hit the mainstream.
Things that were said to be so game-changing, so ahead of their time, that Tesla might have been killed because of them.
That was the world Nikola Tesla was born into on July 9th, 1856.
He took his first breath at precisely the stroke of midnight, meaning that from the very beginning, Nikola existed in a liminal space.
He was born right on the boundary between one day and the next.
And this may have influenced the way he saw himself and the world around him.
