Facts don’t seem to matter so much anymore

We believe what we want to believe

And make up stories to make ourselves feel better

To make ourselves feel safe

To make ourselves feel important. 

We make excuses,

And project blame onto other people or things

While we work very hard to absolve ourselves –

But it always remains a matter of fact.

The media are not the custodians of truth

They tell stories to make you believe what they want you to believe.

And others will try and convince you that “they know best”.

But the truth is like a lion,

You don’t have to defend it

Just let it loose.

It will defend itself.

Because getting it right, means being honest with yourself. It comes with the brutality of having to confront your own demons, And being able and willing to take the hits. So take your second chance. Don’t look back in anger, maintain the hope And be determined to do things a little different.

  • Communication Is Not a One Way Street
    Communication is not a one way street. It’s not about talking, it’s about listening. It’s not about reacting, it’s about responding. It’s not about knowing, It’s about understanding. It’s not about judgement or pretense It’s about connection.
  • Leaving It All Behind
    Some things are certainly worth holding onto -  Others we just hold onto because we are too afraid to say goodbye.  Not because we can’t But because doing so means facing our own mortality
