Seeing the reality from the past to the present, the truth is always trying to be claimed by various parties as their own.
Acclaimed truths are based on many things that have taken many lives; life, cost, nature damage and time wasted on thinking, doing, fighting over the time needed to fix the situation after the struggle, though the outcome remains the same, no one wins or loses, which is proved true and false absolute, except about obsolescence and novelty.
Then can and/or more truth collide with each other? or is there a more genuine truth that has been fussed for? Or is there misread, misheard, misunderstanding or misunderstood of the truth messages due to human limitations? or each truth has its own territory? or is everything the truth itself? or all those points of truth from all forms, grade surfaces or depth merely parts of unlimited one? or a billion questions this secret that should not be answered so that the world always has a story?

It doesn’t matter if you are right, think you are right or trying to be right. All of us have a right to be heard!
You are so right and I agree, as long as we don’t impose our righteousness to be the only truth.
yes, well put. We are the stewards of our world, both within ourselves and between ourselves and others!
In my view, our transactional world is a childlike world, so being wise to face it is often like being a kindergarten school teacher. hahaha…
This is an interesting thought, and as a former kindergarten teacher there is much truth in your words!
And that’s why I use that analogy for I know that you are formerly a teacher. Hehe…
Ah yes, I was a teacher once upon a time. Nicely played Albert, nicely played!
Sorry I missed this one Albert. Much food for thought here.
Thank you for your visit, LaJenna
In our daily lives, I feel that sometimes we put too much effort to defend our truth. Sometimes a different point of view gives another reasonable perspective, but we feel like we know it all.
You are wise and quite open, Elie. I think defending the truth is natural but acting as if our truth is absolute makes us fanatical as it has been shown through the various attitudes of ego; individual or group.
That’s true! Thank you so much for always serving us food for thought!
Again, thank you very much, Ellie.
A lot of people think that they are right. I saw that in Jerusalem and in Israel. So many people thought that they were right.
I went to look for a particular church on the recommendation on some one else. A Person answered me and told me that there were 360 different mosques, synagogues and churches. Take your pick.
From that point on, I saw our human mistake.
While I still believe in a personal God. I know that Im often wrong.
All I know that as human beings we must conduct ourselves in the way that is helpful, and kind. We must be fair and just. Never try to make ourselves either greater or lesser than what we are and accept ourselves as that.
And love mercy.
Wow… I totally admire your point of view, Pamela. I can understand that people have the truth or part of the truth is also on their side but the claim of truth is absolutely theirs is naive. How can an absolute truth only foster a group or personal ego?
If there is one saying that hits the nail on the head, it comes from the movie that starred Jack Nicholson called “A Few Good Men.” the line during the trial was “You cannot handle the truth.”
Yes, You are right, Dee. Indeed we can’t handle the truth with our existing way of life…. Every plane need a different stroke, right?
We are unique persons who walk in the light that we see.
That’s a great point of view, Dee
That is true by making errors we learn how to do things correctly the next time.
Apparently, my friend, Dee is a humble and wise person.
Thank you since I like to learn new things every day.
Pleasure is mine, Dee…
In the words of the late pro wrestling announcer Gordon Solie “Fair enough.”
That was the best response of the century! Hahaha….
Gordon was one of the best wrestling announcers since he kept his language clean and simple for the fan to understand.
I do not believe some claims because I know they are untrue. They are just manipulation. I trust myself and my real friends. They have not betrayed me for 38 years, and they have a brand of time.
You are right, Elenka. There are many “truths” that are presented to us manipulative, or shifting a truth into a pseudonym for a particular interest.
I’m told and pretty convinced that some truth are “chosen” and “created” to unite and or hide things (maybe too scary to be told)…
but of course, sometimes its what makes people happy… as long as they doesn’t hurt anything…
For the world as a theatrical stage of a masterpiece performance, your point of view is correct.
About what makes people happy, if it were a reality, it would be very happy, but indeed, we must again refer to the reality that the world is a stage play. Hehe…
I know we all have our own belief and differences and that is ok. We are all unique. However that does not mean I believe in those doing evil or breaking the law or things just because they think they are the only ones in the right. I have room for two sides. What is frustrating is when you have those who cannot see any way except theirs. I happens way to often. Open your mind! ok- I am done my friend. 🙂
I wish you a very happy weekend.
Great pov, Carol. Only those who are wise like you can stand on both sides and see the difference as a natural and good thing.
Have a great weekend too…
Well you know in life you learn everything has at least two sides. Thank goodness I am not a narrow minded person. Both of us Albert.
You’re right, Carol. Unfortunately, indeed, so many people shouted the struggle for freedom while on the other side has narrowed their own thoughts and even imprisoned their self in it.
Absolutely agree with you. Have a great day my friend.
