- “Seeking truth and exposing fiction, since 1999”
Humanity has a habit of bending facts or history to fit our own reality.
What I mean is we like seeing things through our own eyes.
And very seldom look through another person’s perspective.
Say you say to yourself:
“If a good person”
What do you mean by that statement?
Would another person who knows you well, say the same thing?
Or would your co-workers or children or parents say the same thing?
We live in an age where it is getting harder and harder to know what is fact or fiction!
