Sitting here watching the first Harry Potter movie. I read the book a few years ago. Enjoy a good story.
What is harder – to tell the truth or to hear the truth?
Using my new hearing aids to listen to this movie. I struggle a little bit with the accent and the higher pitch of the children actors’ voices – but what an incredible imagination to write this story. Sometimes I will read a book like The Night Circus and I just sit in amazement at the author’s imagination. How do they think up this stuff?
I think hearing the truth is harder.
The movie is over. I liked it. I adjusted the treble on my hearing aid and I could hear the dialogue much better.
I wonder if the truth is like accents – everyone has one but can’t hear their own?
In the end, the movie was about love.
I read somewhere once that there is really only two true emotions; one emotion is fear and the other is love and that you can break down every one of your reactions into one of those categories. I wonder if that is true?
I personally think that telling the truth is harder because it’s within your control and so you have to decide whether to tell the truth or not, whereas hearing the truth is beyond your control, though willing to accept the truth after hearing it is another matter entirely……so maybe……now I’m second-guessing my comments. Loved the Harry Potter books and movies. I bought the entire 8 DVD boxed set as a Christmas gift for my grandson a number of years ago and gave my Harry Potter books to my grandkids. Thoughtful post, Gary. Summer is passing too quickly.

Definitely agree with Len. Its a lot easier to tell the truth than hear the truth. That can be quite painful at times and hard to digest.
