The almost truth, Maybe.

When everything in life is unUsual then everything in life is almost truth.

"Apparently 90% of what you remember is fabricated, all based around the 20% that is true."
Paul Roberts 2012

This statement is set within that 90% as I have just made it up but it does make sense.  Everyone has a desire, however small, to have a more excitement and they can do this by fabricating it in their own memories.

I however, realise that everything I say is almost true, and here are some of the things that are almost true or totally true or even completely untrue.  Just about covers all scenarios ;¬)
