Letters Home: Section 1, Letter dated October 15

October 15
Katrina,



Truth is relative. What appears to be the truth to one may not be the truth of another. An interaction viewed by one as harmless or beneficial may to another be viewed as hurtful or inconsiderate. Truth is relative. Where one may feel pain, another may feel nothing; where one may see happiness, another may see something far more complex and ill at rest.



Truth is relative, the information written on the slates of our lives being filtered by the information already there, comparisons drawn for meaning and possibility, conclusions drawn for future reference. As humans live throughout their lives, from birth to death, the information from those interactions are written on the slates to serve as reminders of where we’ve been and the effect that it had, reminders that will effect future reactions. And, no information of life goes missing that has been written by the ghosts of the past, those ghosts of interaction and the ghost within our self.



Truth is relative, reason enough for humans to interact with goodness in their heart and the angels of hope about them; the angels are able to whisper kindness into the soul of the sender and the receiver and convince hopefulness and humanity to be written on the slates. The angels, like positive ghosts of possibility, can effect the sender, creating a messenger of peace by whispering in their ears words of the same, they can effect the message by helping words of wisdom to be sent, and they can effect the receiver by opening the heart and helping the message to be received in the light of hope.



But, take heed, for one must know the truth of their own slate before knowing the truth of the messages they send to others, for the ghosts who have written on the slate of the sender may disguise the truth of the message, and once a message is sent it cannot be erased from existence. One must take care in their interactions, for what one writes on the slate of another shall return and be written upon their own slate. For what ghosts are summoned and sent to haunt others, shall return to haunt the sender.



And, one must never claim to know another’s truth, for one cannot know the truth of another; a soul is unable to read the slate of another in totality, unable to grasp the context of the messages on the slate.



And, one must be careful to never judge another’s truth, for the truth is decided by the ghosts who have written upon the slate and the slate is the same for no two souls.



Forever Sisters,
Christina
