I

think you can be open minded and still dismiss horse shit. 

I don't think you have to accept everything to be considered open-minded. 

The thing to me is, to take all the bits and pieces 

and string them together for yourself 

to form your own narrative of what works for you. 

And if somebody else's narrative is different from yours? 

Accept it as working for them, 

it doesn't mean it has to work for you as well. 

Isn't that still being open minded?
