Lenses Quote by Gwen Juvenal
““Truth” is a form of this honoring that we speak of and is a part of what may be known as integrity of the soul. As one may come to see, when there is any identity, there will always be a subjective viewpoint. “Truth,” in a sense, may only be experienced through this subjective viewpoint. And as we become nimble and honor each view, a more complete picture may be known of “truth”. In a sense, we all operate in “truth,” but what is the truth that we are operating through? This is a question which can be gold to each of us.””
