Tell Me The Truth ! 6/12/2004 8:49:53 AM
I went looking around for truth to see where it
was hiding
It immediately told me it was in plain view that people
had just stopped using it, but it was always available
Tell me if you know what truth is?
When people form different opinions of the same exact scenario, does that change the truth of a statement?
Or does it just change, because of the mind set of the way one perceives it?
How can you tell which one grasps the truth of a matter, when it is seen in a variety of ways.
We don't all see through the same lens, we each bring our own baggage, upbringing, environment,faith,bias,self-analysis, etc
Does all that have anything to do with truth of a statement?
It seems that people who protest, whatever the reason, pro/con whether its, war, abortion, gay marriage, prejudice,or any other issue, for the most part forget what truth is.
We blur the truth about abortion.
Who wants to believe aborting a baby is murder. oops is it?
What is the truth? Is it left to the individual to decide?
If a fetus(baby;) is feeding off the mother through the umbilical cord, wrapped in a sac of protective water in the womb, while growing all of its parts, and can move, have a heartbeat, etc
does that represent life?
To me it does, how about you?
Therefore if you destroy that life, isn't that the same as destroying any life?
What is the plain truth of that situation, seen through the eyes of reason, with no judge or jury, no guilt,just your own perception?
Even when starting out with a fact, discussing something, we seem to make up our own truths to get a point across, forgetting the fact we started out with.
If I say," Islamic terrorists from a group called Al Queda
are responsible for 9/11" it is a known fact.
Yet, that truth is argued every day by many saying the fault can be traced back to America, and the way leaders did things or didn't do them.
However, does any objection or reason you may come up
with, change the truth of the statement, that Al Queda
terrorists are responsible for 9/11?
People arguing cause and effect, Looking for others to blame, when they have an issue, distort and in some cases destroy the facts of situations, bent on diminishing or even abolishing the truth.
That's how, even our histroy books have been defiled!
How often we destroy the truth when it concerns matters of romance ,lust, and all things pertaining to what we put under the banner of "love"
It is almost impossible to chronicle the truth in matters of love. Most of us use the word love so nonchalantly, and have added so many wrong derivations of it, as to have almost destroyed its true meaning.We need to study what love is just like we do anything else we want to learn and do well!
The crux of the matter. Truth gets left by the wayside when people want to accomplish their goals at any cost!
Truth becomes an enemy to anyone who must rationalize
a situation in order to live with it. That's self-deception.
Isn't it a fact that we blur the truth to assuage our guilt?
Truth...almost imossible to live with, yet, we perish without it!
We are perishing in the world today as it heads towards destruction, having cast off the mantle of truth!
Truth shines like a beacon of light, always there ready to
