Truth

     Truth is nothing. What you believe to be true is everything.

Are we really here to seek the truth or our perception of the truth. We could say that the sky is blue but maybe someone else things its azul (i like crayola its the kid in me) now their truth may be slightly altered from what our reality or perception is but ones truth is not the others truth. Instead of arguing with people who seek to see the aquamarine in life we should applaud the differences and thank the starts we have people out there who do not just accept what someone else says as the truth. If we did this America would still be young and the world would still be flat. It is the few people who seek their own truth or to be the opposition pushing for a new truth an addendum to the norm. After all truth is just the state of being the case. So lets argue the case...I say I need to lose a bit more weight, my husband thinks i look great the way I am well his truth is jaded by love, lust, marriage, etc. Or from a more philosophical stand point his nature and nurture as a child has altered his perception of the way he sees things. I perhaps was raised to enjoy skinny and raised outside of the box. Plate said, "And isn't it a bad thing to be deceived about the truth, and a good thing to know what the truth is? For I assume that by knowing the truth you mean knowing things as they really are." Maybe it is good to be deceived as clinically I should lose 10-15 more pounds but were he not deceived by the truth perhaps his love would not be as great, or his lust as strong. Truth is relative in the grand scheme of things, the loss of trying to find the truth for ourselves, politically, environmentally, etc. is sad. Although we may never all ascertain the same answer or reasonably deduce logic to the same end point change and truth demand that we keep doing so. Seek the truth even if what it come to be is not he answer you hypothesized. When in the Scientific Method we get a solution other than what was hypothesized we get the change to figure out how to change, how to grow, and how to reevaluate our stances.
