Denial
Doesn't Make It So
by Susan Russo
 "Facts
do not cease to exist because they are ignored." -Aldous Huxley 1894-1963
There are times when we will rationalize anything to make things seem to be right. But, by not facing
the truth; doesn't make it go away. You may want so much to believe things can work that you choose to not look at reality.
Until you can be truthful with yourself about your circumstance; you will continue to live the same way.
By denying the truth; you keep yourself stuck in a situation that may be less than desirable. Even though
you want to believe things can be different, if you've tried everything in the past to make things right; and they still
aren't; then it's time to face reality.
Instead of looking at this reality as if you're losing something; look at it as an
opportunity to finally take decisive action to begin creating the life you desire. See it for what it is; and you free yourself
to decide to either remain the same or take the steps to change things.
Letting go of something that you've put your blood, sweat and tears into can feel like a defeat when the
outcome is such a disappointment. The real disappointment is holding onto something that clearly isn't working out for you.
By confronting what's real and not just a dream; you can make "right choices" to put yourself on the path to achieving
whatever it is you really want.
It may take you some time to come to terms with the fact that you aren't living the way you
thought you would; but once you admit the truth; you can then implement the necessary changes to begin to live up to your
potential.
Change isn't always easy. It comes down to the fact that you either choose to face reality and make a
difference; or you can turn your head the other way and accept things just the way they are without any way out.
The only
thing that's accomplished by denying something is that you remain living a self-imposed lie. It's your choice to face the
hard truths, to have enough courage to face facts and then to do something to take your life to the next level.
So when you choose to rationalize away a better future; remember one thing, "The truth will set you
free!"
Warm wishes…Susan
