We perceive people and situations in two ways—sometimes the way they want us to see them, and sometimes the way we want to see them.
And somewhere between the two, truth can get lost.
Once we are emotionally biased towards or against someone, even facts begin to look different. Logic bends, righteousness becomes subjective, and we conveniently accept the version that supports what we already believe.
Perhaps the greatest challenge is not finding the truth—it is removing ourselves from it long enough to see it without prejudice.
Truth does not change with perception. Our version of it does.
