While reading Till We Have Faces I was struck by O's actions as she seeks council from Bardia and the Fox. When recounting her story of her first encounter with Psyche she leaves out bits and pieces that she doesn't want to tell. Then later after her second encounter with Psyche she begins to think on her way back what parts of the story she would tell. Seeing the negative effects telling these 'half truths' have on O and the decisions she makes really hit home with me because it is something that I am often guilty of. Furthermore it is something that we are all guilty of, sometime or another, when we seek God's guidance. How often do we try to skirt around saying to God what we are really guilty of even when he knows more fully than we do.
