Of all lies, art is the least untrue.

Anything made is a shaped version of the world, not the world itself. A song, a story, a photograph all leave out most of what happened, and yet they can land closer to how something actually felt than an accurate account would. The invention is what makes the truth portable. Honesty and literal fact are not the same thing.

Notice which made things keep telling you something real, and take them seriously as information about yourself. When you describe your own life this week, worry less about being complete and more about being faithful to what mattered in it.
