“If you see my truth as a sign of disrespect (because it conflicts with your truth), then nothing I can ever say can ever have an effect that isn't negative. Anything I say--voicing any other way of looking at things-- seems like defensiveness, entrenched obstinacy, disrespect. So I didn't contradict anything. Anything. I just took it all in.” — Shellen Lubin
If you see my truth as a sign of disrespect
(because it conflicts with your truth),
then nothing I can ever say
can ever have an effect that isn't negative.
Anything I say--voicing any other way of looking at things--
seems like defensiveness,
entrenched obstinacy,
disrespect.
So I didn't contradict anything.
Anything.
I just took it all in.
