TRUTH

Truth. Everyone is talking about it, redefining it like a few foolish people sit trying to redefine marriage.


Truth is not the whim of some person's imagination. It's not popular throught, it's not a societal determination, most of the time truth is anything but popular. Truth is not the dictionary meaning which now allows one to determine thier own. It's not an "accepted" concept of reality, in fact it's usually very far from reality since reality has become one's interpretation of life situations.

If truth is not any of these things, then what is it? What is this thing that more people than should, say they possess? Truth is what changes people, times, concepts and reality. Truth is what is spoken by those not seeking to be popular, the ones seeking to be real. Truth is something that irreguardless of who it may offend, is. It's more than fact, yet it is not opinion. It's above laws, above leadership, and rank. Truth is what everyone, whether they know it or not, seek to find. Truth is not determined by questioning, like in a trial, for some times the truth is never found.

Truth is the determining and driving force for many laws we have. A person should not commit murder. Why? What reason os there for it? The truth of murder is that it is WRONG! There's no debate here, no question. If someone were to actually believe that it's okay to murder, they would have to be insane. Why do I say this? If a person said there's nothing wrong with murder, I guarantee you they would change thier mind as soon as it's them in the victim's role.

Truth determins what really is. Truth is undeniable. Many will reject truth and think then that something must not be true because they can "deny" whatever it is they are rejecting, but this just isn't so. Just like murder being wrong, many can reject the truth of it, but it doens't mean it's not true. Many can try to lie and thus "distort" the truth, but really what they are doing is distorting our view of the truth, not truth itself. truth will remain what it is...truth.

I may write more on this later. Please, if you are interested, leave a comment below. Thanks.
