In our posturing and jockeying to project an image of ourselves to others, are facades and efforts are sometimes clearly perceived. In these moments, our authenticity is questioned and social conflicts can emerge. But what does this idea, captured in the remark “I can see right through you,” reflect about our nature? Are we so used to falsehoods that even truths unintentionally-revealed become a source of clashes? Are personal truths as meaningful, powerful or valuable when they’re brought to light involuntarily by others?
Forward. Thinking.
