The Projector Screen

Metaphorical Narrative

You called her the truth teller.
But the truth wasn’t in her. She was only a screen. The real film was playing from your own projector — fear reels, betrayal reels, stitched together from the past.

Blaming the screen never changes the movie. You must turn to the projector.

Core Insight

Projection makes it seem like others are “revealing truth.” In reality, they mirror your stored fears. Recognizing the projector ends the illusion.

Saturday Experiment

• Next time you feel “they are the problem,” ask: “Is this my projector running?”
• List the fears you see on the screen.

Sunday Reflection

• Who in my life feels like a “truth teller”?
• What do they actually reflect back about me?
