Truth in

“Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less.”
Marie Curie

In our search for truth and understanding, we often face uncertainty and sudden fear. We worry about what lies ahead, a future we hadn’t planned for. We wonder: Do we truly know and understand ourselves? Can we discern right from wrong in the moment?

I used to believe that snap decisions were always right, even if they could easily lead to regret later on. But now, I see that dwelling on regrets only hurts. Every choice we make in life has consequences, and we must accept them without dwelling on the past.

Life is about embracing our choices without looking back, and if we do, not in anger. Mistakes teach us, helping us break free from old habits and grow. As we grow, so do our responsibilities, but we must take care of ourselves and others without causing harm.

I disagree that our inner struggles affect others unless they allow them to. That’s when we need to know ourselves enough to understand that the struggles of others are not ours to solve. Respect for self and others is key here.

Understanding ourselves means looking within, not projecting onto others. Our struggles are ours to overcome, and no one else’s! We must know where we come from, value our journey, and appreciate every experience that shaped us.

This journey is about taking back control, staying true to ourselves, and finding our own way to be empathic and kind human beings. It’s about resilience and recognizing the strength we gain from facing our past.

By embracing our truth and who we truly are, we honor our journey—the tough times, the victories, and the moments that changed us. With self-awareness, we navigate life, knowing each experience shapes who we are.
