Quote by Shannon L. Alder

“When we are wounded it's as if something is stolen from us. We adapt and accept a particular truth that sets us up to behave a certain way in the future when we are faced with a situation that reminds us of the past. What we know about ourselves becomes influenced by our perception of these events. We associate and project the qualities of those who hurt us onto others unfairly. Every situation may appear similar, but people are not. Look at the people that love you and not the reminder of ghosts.”

“The human mind registers a false perception of physical reality from the occurrences that make an impression upon the senses. Human consciousness is an orderly organization of human perceptions of the structure and ratio of physical reality, of which we attempt to share by communicating our perceptions and justifiable true beliefs with other people. The infinite fallibility of the human mind, along with the inability of any human being to know with certainty if anyone else shares an identical perception of reality, makes some personal truths forever elusive and uncommunicable.”
