Finding the Truth

The saying is overused, but definitely has meaning. “There are 3 sides to every story: yours, theirs and the truth.”

One thing I’ve always done is try to see every side of every situation. I try not to be so consumed in my own feelings that I can’t see someone else’s reasoning for their actions. This has helped countless times where it’s allowed me to step out and take an objective view of what‘s occurring.

Only when you step out of your emotions and start to see everything for what it is, not what it FEELS like it is, can you heal and grow from it. That’s what I’m doing at the moment. A lot of my life recently has been filled with stepping away. Looking at things from above or outside. I’m constantly thanking God for the gift and seeing that this gives me the chance to let go. I can easily get over things because I see the fault in myself as well as the fault in others. Not often do people take that time.

Already, TRUTH is being revealed. Nothing short of amazing. My advice to anyone else going through a tough time is that sometimes you have to stop and search. Look for the facts. Evaluate the situation fully and make sure you don’t do it alone. Yes, sometimes it’s good to ask for help. Others can provide an outlook that maybe you just can’t.

If anything, stay true to yourself and if you sleep at night free of worry or turmoil you’re good. If not…there’s some work to be done! But everything comes with time and evaluation. You’ll begin to see the light or darkness in everything and you’ll be able to decipher the next move with ease. Sometimes it hurts a little, but it’s for the best.

Stay open. Stay honest.
