Dear ninibee:

I appreciate you being honest with me. I know what you mean, I am still, this very day, believing a little more myself that my childhood reality was this or that. When we as children close our eyes to the ugly reality of our childhood (and all children with ugly childhoods do that), it is very difficult to open our eyes and see it as it was. We may see something, believe it for a moment, and then forget it as if we didn’t see it at all.

To really know something we have to feel it. We don’t want to feel pain so we stay hovering over knowledge we don’t want to have.
