28d • THE MIRROR
My Daughter
Really got to see the mirror held up in front of my face this morning. My daughter had a breakdown because she had told us that she had read a book without telling us she had read a book and lied about how everything happened. That makes the story a short version. Looking back at how I’ve operated. Rather than telling the truth I would make up a small lie that was not a lie to me in the moment. To allow time to try to figure out the problem on my own. Rather than telling the full truth and allow allowing the problem to be a small problem.. Then i would make up enough small lies to cover up the actual truth that then the small lies would turn into the bigger problem because my wife is very good and putting the puzzle together and calls me out everytime.
So my reflection for the morning is parts of me used to make up small lies to try to figure out the problem on my own. Going forward I want to create the part of me that is truthful. So that I can actually get the help that has beneficial. That then also lets the small problem be a small problem rather than a reactive problem.
