This is the truth

 

There's this quote that has been going around for years now that says, "this is my story, this is my truth". I get it. It makes you feel better being able to share your side of a story or an event. It may help to being you some sort of closure. It may clear your name from some of the people still talking about "what happened". But the truth of the matter is your story is not all truth. I know, that sounds harsh. But the truth is, we have this funny little thing called perspective. And our perspective is formed and changed by our life experiences. Somewhere along the way, our perspectives change and evolve or stay in that constant fight or flight mode. Your story will always be your story. But the truth will be somewhere in between two versions.
