Logic: a rant.

 'Life is about storytelling,' said a titled lady recently, 'about the stories we tell ourselves, the stories we're told, and what we buy into.'

Right...

...but what happens when the stories of different people clash? As another titled lady has said, recollections may vary.

Whom do we believe?

Should it be the person who is most like you? The person who speaks her story loudest? The person who appears to be most upset? The person who claims the right to most sympathy? The person who claims to be kind? The person who has the longest track-record of truthfulness? The person with the biggest gang? The person who doesn't claim the right to most sympathy?

Or might there be some other criterion?

Word To Use Today: story. This word comes from the Anglo-French estorie, from the Latin historia, which means history.
