Truth can sometimes be so painful. It can cut you, leaving scars that aren't easily forgotten or don't easily heal. Truth is so powerful in the way it engulfs everything. Truth has no emotion yet the emotions it generates leaves one with no choice but to let these emotions free. There's a saying I've heard 'what you don't know can't hurt you', in other words ignorance is bliss. But we always want to hear the truth no matter how painful it will be. We still desire to know the truth even though deep inside we know that it can hurt us more than we can imagine. Truth is not always bitter though, it can be sweet as well, for just as truth can hurt you, it can save you as well. The question is will you let the truth hurt you or save you. Truth can be both the blade that cuts you and the balm that heals you. Yes, truth is powerful and must be handled with care, for if not then we alone will bear the consequences of using it unwisely.
