Lesson learned

I learned an awful lesson this morning. It was probably something that should've occurred to me before but didn't. I learned that even when you think you've been objective and you've retold things exactly as they occurred, each person will perceive things differently.

There's this great foreign movie my film lecturer made us watch, I think it was called The Woodsman. Anyway, long story short, it's about how all these different people witnessed and experienced the same thing but each retold their truth of the story differently to the others and each retelling was correct.

I learned a lesson but where to from here I don't know. Perhaps it means I need to stop doing the non-fiction writing, or less dramatic, maybe I need to stop sharing it.

Right now I don't know what the answer is...
