I don't think you can tell the objective truth about a person. That's why people write novels.

The single overriding objective in wellness is creating constant personal renewal where we recognize and act on the truth that each day is a miraculous gift, and our job is to untie the ribbons. That's the Law of Esprit: living life with joy.

Each person does see the world in a different way. There is not a single, unifying, objective truth. We're all limited by our perspective.

Looking back at it now, any objective account of my life is bound to read like a cross between 'The Wife of Bath's Tale' and a travel brochure.
