There are countless philosophies, leaders in different scientific fields, sociology and psychology and various groups of people that speak different truths. It is in an individualistic and Postmodernist social paradigm that we can say our truths are true even in the face of contradictory information. This can create a sense of groundlessness and uncertainty when we are seeking clarity.

Sometimes when we are feeling vulnerable and searching for solid ground we can look outside of ourselves for answers.

Sometimes it feels easier to climb in the backseat and ask someone else to be the driver of our lives.

The truth about ‘the truth’ when it comes to our personal struggles is that there isn’t an ultimate ‘truth’ to give us the answers to the complex human experience. The concept of ‘the truth’ is a fluctuating variable.

We all have our individual and subjective experiences that inform the way we understand and construct our reality. What is true for us isn’t always going to be true for someone else and in that we have the opportunity to empower ourselves by being the drivers of our own lives.

We are social creatures and connecting with others and our surroundings provides us with a platform to observe the different truths and explore what is true for us. Connection can highlight the ways we can thrive within the sometimes seemingly contradictory and uncertain human experience whilst simultaneously staying connected to ourselves and our sovereignty.
