Why is the truth so elusive.

Stories have the power to change one's worldview and have the power to influence anyone who hears, reads or obtains knowledge of it.

The truth is a mighty source of information but can be hard to track or hard to understand. The reason for the truth being so elusive is that many people obscure the truth or bend it in a way that makes them right or at least what you see as incorrect. 

Sometimes lies get out of hand and may cause thing blow out of proportions and many theories and those are presented as fact which, even more confuse and dilute the truth.

Even though these lies are harmful and can cause bad things, good can also come out of this. It might sound far fetched but sometimes fiction is more effective than fact. Some give people hope, others create arguments or discourse.

In the end stories are just stories take everything with a grain of salt and do your research.

There are stories that are so well crafted that they spread like wildfire and grab all readers attention. A entising story can all be so great without some hard core facts, and sometimes these facts are so elusive that a story may take a longer time then hoped to be crafted. The power of a story can change the way the reader previously thought or once believed in. Obtaining the truth in anything can be difficult, but sometimes it's worth digging for and getting because at the end of the day the truth is more satisfying then a false statement. Getting the truth can be difficult due to the fact the people have bias or can alter the story to get a juicy one or a more dramatic one. Everyone likes a good story and wanting to get a truthful and a engaging story can be hard so the writer may modify the truth to get a better outcome and a better story. Overall though there is a lot of power that can come from a good story and it can really change the readers look on life. The truth may be elusive because of the way people work, they may have a guilty conscience and change it to seem like a less bad person or to get a better story out of the original one.

If someone were to write their own perspective on a story, they would try to make it so that people would want to read it, even though it may not be true. In "Thirty-Eight Who Saw Murder Didn't Call the Police", it talks about what the title clearly explains. But, when other people were to make an essay about it, they would close to completely change people's perspectives on. Someone might make an essay about the 38 witnesses and say that they saw the murder instead of heard it and did nothing. This example could change everything that readers think of the thirty-eight witnesses. Therefore, the truth can be elusive because there are dozens of perspectives from writers who would say that they story is different, or that they like or hate it.

Many times the truth is difficult to find. For example in my own life experiences when I was in Kingston  High School I meet very important person she was guidance counselor advisory bilingual for spanish community. She was those kind  person always willing give hand anyone who needs. She work many years at schools then she hear offered better position in work justice center because she was doing great job she accepted. In the beginning 2017 in the summer regrettably I hear the she was kill by her husband. Unbelievable how the happened the people the we love is taken away. Schools, work justice center people wonder Why? How? When? Where? Who? many questions. Is very difficult to define an answer. There is no words to describe how we feel. As you can see these is an example how the truth is elusive. There wasn't witness because her house was in the forest and there wasn’t neighbors around  the house. The truth is difficult to find because is only little evidence.
