Am a sucker for quotes and in spite of there being the internet with tons of sites with quotes, I still save my fav quotes to my notepad. And sometimes even write them down in my BuJo. 🙂
But I am going to try to tell the truth. Except for the parts I’m leaving out because
A. I’m still processing them
B. I don’t understand them
C. I Forgot them
D. I think they interrupt my narrative
E. They’re Boring!
F. I don’t want to tell you those…get used to it.
Truth be told, it’s hard sometimes to figure out which part of the truth to hide and which to reveal. I suppose it depends on convenience. Should be a theme for a nice little story.
I’ve told just about all my secrets, but not all of them to one person. And yeah, truth is so hard to convey. Most peoples’ perspectives get in the way of seeing the truth I know. And most often, I don’t think people have the patience for the truth because it requires so much context. It’s often better to stay silent than be misunderstood.
haha, that’s fabulous! Coz there’s just stuff they don’t need to know :). I might have to heist that one for the “You’re a Damned Liar!” post. thanks for visiting.
Impressive blogging, also people comments. Nice Elena. Also, this one is a catching quote for success 📈 half a light of truth, half a mystery, cool stuff.
Love this!

Can truth be subjective? Should there be standards for truth?
How about:
“It’s not a lie if you believe it.” :o)

Well, it can be subjective… Sometimes the truth is not that obvious and only parts of it can be seen. Different parts forom different people…

We live in a “post-truth” world, where my primordial biases often overwhelm facts and evidence. (e.g., recent political/election debates).
