Random Fact: Paul Revere never did a midnight ride.

We think he did because of a poem written years later.

What lie are you living as your truth?

Are you living a lie?

I’ve been reading a great book, which has confirmed many of the stories I heard growing up & several I’ve heard in recent years. The stories of our histories and how we learned them in school – were wrong. One of my favorites is the story of Paul Revere. He was actually arrested the night of his famous mid-night ride and didn’t warn anyone. The two people who did run the warnings were 1) a small mail carrier 2) a teenage female. It was a poet several years later who penned a rhyming poem and re-wrote our knowledge of what happened that fateful night.

We tell ourselves stories. Those stories become our truths. We will often do whatever it takes to keep that story alive. We’ll stay at the same job. Date the same people. We’ll surround ourselves with evidence that makes our story true. We’ll continue with habits that keep us believing and showing us, “see, my story is true”. What happens when we’re ready to change the story?

We lose weight. We find new friends. We build new relationships. We create healthier patterns in our lives.

Are you ready to stop living your lie? Ready to live your truth? It might be scary changing history, but the real story is more interesting.
