Even the smallest truth can change the simplest dynamic. It can make it change totally from one way of thinking to the complete opposite. A situation can appear one way then end up completely different, based upon a truth.
It’s the one thing we always believe we can handle, but really can we? Are we able to deal with the change that a truth can bring about? Will it actually make things different in a good way, once it is known?
Even good truth is hard to “handle” sometimes. Would it be easier to not know it, and allow the behaviors of the unknown to continue? If you don’t know it’s there, it’s sometimes easier to behave in unknowledge than to fix the behaviors when you know the truth.
Sometimes the truth doesn’t actually set you free. Instead it just changes the way you have to deal. You can’t just not deal with the truth if you’re being responsible, you must deal with it. It has to be recognized and addressed.
Do we really want it, the truth?
I believe the teen show Gossip Girl said it best, “Truth, it sets you free and binds you all at the same time.”
Are we ready for the binding? Do we really want it to set us free? Are we truly willing to be bound for this freedom? Can we really handle the truth?
