Truth endures

Often the truth is difficult. But when the truth is difficult, all the other options are even more difficult.

If there are no easy answers, you must go with the best answer. And the best answer is the truthful one.

You can face the truth by your own choice, on your own terms. Or you can evade and pretend and deny, and eventually the truth will hunt you down anyway.

Either way, the truth persists. No one has to support or maintain truth for it to remain true.

Even with the most difficult truth, your best option is to keep yourself on its side. Though that can involve pain and sacrifice, truth is ultimately worth the cost.

Truth matters, and truth endures. It’s always good to keep that in mind.

— Ralph Marston
