Benton’s bits of advice

The only way to tell the truth is to let the truth tell you. In many ways, we are unaware of ourselves. We tell stories that we think get at the truth of our essence but actually don’t get close. We have a vested interest in ourselves, and that colors and camouflages us from ourselves. Therapy is the process of putting a different mirror in front of us so that we see a more realistic image. It is the process of letting the truth tell us. Benton Lutz is a licensed professional counselor and can be reached at 843-986-0569 or blutz@islc.net.
