But in fact, just about everything is a portrait.
It’s our temporary understanding of the world as it is, not an actual experience of it.
We see things through our filters, match them to our expectations and live out our story of what we expect and why. We build a narrative around every interaction we have, and that narrative is rarely as accurate as we’d like to admit.
It gets easier to work our way through a situation if we preface our retelling with, “the way I experienced what she said…”
