Cleaning my psyche.

The truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.



When I discovered that I was going to die from cancer I decided I wanted to die happy. I started a long process of introspection trying to clear out of my head things that I was unhappy about. I looked at issues, losses, regrets, and eventually came to terms with all of them as far as I could tell. But I knew I hadn't done the whole job. There was still something but I didn’t know what it was.


And then, perhaps because of my constant attention on what I didn’t know, constantly asking myself what was I missing, an unknown popped into my mind. It was something I actually had never known about.


Even though I hadn’t known about it, it completed the picture of an unresolved issue. Suddenly I knew the whole truth and cleared it totally away.


I realized, as you already know, that not just the truth but the whole truth is necessary to solve any problem. WT When the whole truth is not known you have to find it. So the unknown whole truth became my fixation.


I started writing about myself and my life concentrating on truth. I constantly checked, "Is that the truth? Is what I wrote really the truth?" If not, scratch it out. And I just kept on writing.


How do you look for something when you don't even know what it is? Well, you just keep on looking. When you find it, it will tell you what it is. QB


I just kept on writing, for days, for weeks, and months, concentrating on truth - and the revelations started showing up. That's it. That's how I did it.
