I spend much of my time critically evaluating the internet and our reaction as a culture existing in this new dimension.
I was worried about my friends and clients when I witnessed that they (and I) were starting to believe the one sided view that we get of others’ lives online.
It was time to tell my own small story of pain and misperception to demonstrate how easy it is to manipulate the truth and how devastating it can be when we believe those highly edited and filtered stories.
I’ve decided to tell my truth more and encourage others to do the same. We all feel the same.
