Those Truth That Were Lies
In a world where the lines between truth and falsehood blur with each repetition, stories and doctrines are passed from one person to the next, leaving us lost in a web of conflicting narratives. The very essence of reality becomes enshrouded in the tales that both entertain and confound us.
Often, we find ourselves questioning the rules we're told to live by, wondering whose expectations truly matter. Is it our own, the dictates of society, or the constraints placed upon us by our families? Who decided that these expectations should mark the pinnacle of our aspirations?
This is for the girl whose smile conceals a daily battle, for those who refuse to let life dictate the terms of their personal validation, no matter how daunting the journey becomes. To those who continually strive, though their best efforts seem perpetually inadequate – this is dedicated to you.
Believe me when I say, I've walked that path too, experienced the searing pain, and shed tears until even they seemed to betray me. I've tasted the bitterness of defeat and endured the test of faith from every source imaginable, even from the depths of my own self-doubt.
I understand the yearning to finally breathe, to reclaim a life that is wholly your own. This is a tribute to you, to us, and to those truths that, in their own twisted way, became our lies.
