Nothing but the Truth

I wonder whether the truth is a single entity, whereas the number of realities may be infinite...?

Conflict can ensue when one person seeks to assert their reality over another’s.  Disagreement is common, as to versions of the ‘truth’.  There is something comforting to find a common ‘truth’, but perhaps great beauty lies in the complexity of reality. 

Recovery is often associated with finding our ‘truth’ and becoming comfortable with our ‘true self’ – so deceptively simple sounding.  Uncovering who we might be, or might like to be represents a challenging and often frightening prospect: after all, it is often this very person we have avoided for so long, and sought to escape in the most radical ways possible.  I like to think more in terms of aspiring towards our highest selves and our limitless potential.  It implies a less finite, gradual and ongoing process of continual growth, as we emerge, like the lotus flower out of muddy waters.
