"down in a hole" - alice in chains

"don't understand who they thought i was supposed to be. look at me now a man who won't let himself be"



it's a common misconception that there's no such thing as the truth. the trouble is that everyone has a different truth and they can be incompatible. like extreme said - the three sides to every story are yours, mine and the truth. in reality its more like that fable of the blind men and the elephant. there is an absolute truth but for the most part we don't have the ability to perceive enough of it at once to understand it. concentrating too hard on the bit of the truth you can see will stop you understanding that the bit someone else can see can still be the truth.

i think this is even more true about roles. nobody else's idea of who and what you should be is right, but in all honestly yours probably isn't either.
