Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact.
Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth.
— Marcus Aurelius
Apparently, we process what we see and hear through the lenses of our past experiences, upbringing, beliefs and values. Research is clear that “eyewitness identification is vulnerable to distortion even without the witness’s awareness.” I know my memory is anything but photographic, Lol. So maybe we could afford to leave a little breathing room for our less than perfect memories and honest misunderstandings. (Ps. I’ll try to remember to calm my emotions first and then consider both sides, or three sides of every story, ha ha). Just sayin’ ;) Hugs. XO
Blessings,
