“THE PATIENT’S SECRET” by Loreth Anne White

Recently, I accepted and integrated the idea that there is no ONE TRUTH.
People tell each other their personal opinions, and they deliver them as if they are THE TRUTH. Hence, multiple conflicts happen all the time between humans.

I recently discovered the writer Loretta Anne White and I am fascinated by her writings.
In her novel “The Patient’s Secret,” she wrote beautifully about my above comment:

“People don’t live in nicely painted heritage homes in pretty neighborhoods. They don’t live in modern high-rise condos, or rustic cabins in the woods, or homeless shelters under concrete bridges.

People live in the six inches of real estate between their ears–in that three pounds of fat and protein that is the human brain.

They live inside their heads. That’s where reality resides.

That’s where every single human constructs an individual narrative of their life.

That’s where they tell themselves who they are, and what they can and can’t be.

And no person’s reality can ever be the same as anyone else’s.

The notion that there is one objective truth out there–that’s the biggest illusion of all.”
