I have a rule at home that goes something like this. I don’t care what you tell them out there in the world, but here at home; you tell me the truth.
If I find out that I’ve been lied to, then I usually react in a frothy emotional outburst.
I have noticed that my reactions have neither slowed down the rate of the lies or changed anything.
Therefore, I am beginning to believe that truth is a myth we tell ourselves. Clearly, I don’t know the answers for certain. However, since I used to be physically beaten as a child in an attempt to stop me from not telling the truth; I see this development as steps in the right direction.
Hence, the frothy emotional outbursts have ceased…
