I could hardly believe my eyes when I saw the name of the shop:
THE TRUTH SHOP.
The saleswoman was very polite: What type of truth did I wish
to purchase, partial or whole? The whole truth, of course. No
deceptions for me, no defenses, no rationalizations. I wanted my
truth plain and unadulterated. She waved me on to another side
of the store.
The salesman there pointed to the price tag. “The price is very
high, sir,” he said. “What is it?” I asked, determined to get the
whole truth, no matter what it cost. “Your security, sir,” he
answered.
I came away with a heavy heart.
I still need the safety
of my unquestioned beliefs.
Anthony De Mello, SJ |
