Re-Evaluating the So-Called Truth
Posted 10.29.2005, at 08:06:28 PM
Part of the "Re-evaluating the So-Called Truth" series. For a long time now, I have always found myself fascinated by the lives of
everyone else around me. Yet, at the same time, I have always simply accepted
the story of my life as how I have always perceived it and never really have I
looked back on it in-depth to clear up the misconceptions of my own life.
Children cannot possibly remember details of their history completely
accurately, and this holds true for adults; however, as an adult you can look
back at details you know to have happened and re-examine them with a new
point-of-view.
For years now, I have been a very happy person. I make people laugh, I excite
people, and I make people feel good. I like that. I am optimistic and very
secure with my views on life, moral, religion, politics, and everything else.
Yet I still am cast with two shadows in my life. Of these shadows, one is
natural and the other is a shadow from my past which has loomed over me since I
was very young. It makes my vision blurry to the truth, and it holds me back to
some degree with how I act.
The shadow is cast from the long and deep history that is me. I have accepted
it as a fact of life and have lived with it as my consequence. But now I am
tired of this shadow, and now I want it gone.
To cast it away, I must re-evaluate my life and the roles of every single person
to ever leave an impact on me. Sometimes the accepted truth isn't actually the
truth. So here I set forth on my journey to re-evaluate the truth of my life.
