This is my truth and I won’t hear anything else!! I know what you said and that’s it! No, I didn’t misunderstand what you said even if that would give true peace. Yes, tone and volume can make a difference in how others might perceive things but not M-E!! You can say there is a whole different painting but mine is laser focused. It’s not important if it’s inconsistent in what you’d normally do because maybe it was all a trap! I won’t accept anything else even if this anger is slowly bringing me 6 feet under because in the end all I have is my truth! A truth I hold onto even if I’m the only ears hearing it!
FOOTNOTE- One’s truth is not the only painting in the room.
