RE: The stories we tell

in OCD4 years ago

Fair or unfair is always connected with expectations. And expectations are rooted in what people think they deserve. Can this inner vision be far away from the truth? Of course. Not many individuals will see the fault in what they do. Blaming the system is always easy. Blaming others is just what is convenient.
Changing yourself will always lead to a change in the environment, but many do, as you underlined, the reverse.
I like stories too. I like the ones that are untold and yet seen. There is also a whole story behind what is not said. And that says usually much more. I think that we are all like books. It takes time to read through the pages and turn them around. The narrative will always change in the eyes of the reader. In the end, people believe that the only story that matters is the one that they are telling to themselves. It is not. Self deception is not a long road, many will have to turn around eventually and look for the real story down the road.

I reckon a lot of people don't realize that what they aren't willing to do, is what is keeping their conditions the same, even though they want different. They see their result separate from the environment.

I think that some people walk away from the book, believing that their perspective is correct, without turning around to realize their errors.

It takes a lot of self awareness to be able to see where you do wrong. Not many have that
