"This is my truth"

'This is my truth' is not an expression I would use, because the word 'truth' means something different to me.

But, I think that when people say, This is my truth, they are claiming their right to express their feelings, even in the face an audience that is disinterested in their deep feelings and concerns.

I do have a friend who believes that DNA is a triple helix; she is just about positively sure of this. <-- not the kind of personal meaning I usually expect
