The Truth is always now and My Story never is.
It takes time for my thoughts, beliefs and opinions about an event to develop, so every thought, belief or opinion I have is about an imagined past or a projected future. So all of my thoughts, beliefs and opinions are about an imagined “not now.”
So my story cannot be the same thing as the Truth. At best it’s an approximation or a guess.
And if it brings me any suffering at all, I can question it.
