Fear Quote by Abby Covert
““True means without variation, but finding something that doesn't vary feels impossible. Instead, to establish the truth, we need to confront messes without the fear of unearthing inconsistencies, questions, and opportunities for improvement. We need to be open to the variations of truth that are bound to exist. Part of that includes agreeing on what things mean. Thats our subjective truth. And it takes courage to unravel our conflicts and assumptions to determine what's actually true.””
