Truth!
What is truth to you?
We are always quick to want to know the truth. It's very common to hear words like "tell me the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth". Is there anything like the whole truth? Is truth divisible such that a part can be given an another part withheld? Truth is absolute. If it is diminished in anyway then it is no longer truth but something else.
Someone once said "tell me the truth and let me decide what to do with it".
Not all truth are pleasant. Infact whenever we ask for the truth, we have this fear within us, fear of how weighty that truth might be and how much it will affect the present situation. When the truth finally gets spilled, we break down and cry and some never recover from the shock.
Does this mean we should no longer ask for the truth? I dare not say so. Truth can also be the reason why a situation is salvaged.
Why ask for truth when truth should be a quality, a way of life and not mere words?
Humans are so unbelievable and will always do crazy things. Instead of asking for the truth, I would say, look for that someone who will never intentionally do anything to hurt you. Find that someone who will never intentionally do to you what you wouldn't do to them. Find that someone who will not intentionally do something that will need you asking them for the truth.
Did you notice I used the word "intentionally"? This is because someone who cares about you will never intentionally hurt you. Find that someone who will respect you so much, they think twice before making any decision. Someone who will never act inappropriately.
Yes, good people exist. Good people who will never cheat on you, take you for granted, get involved in one shady deal or the other or do something that will drag your name in the mud. If the kid they live contradicts your truth then they don't deserve you
Truth to me, is beyond spoken words. Truth is your personality, the way you act and the things you do. When you always act right, people will never doubt a word that comes from your mouth. Truth isn't "Yes I did it" when you know you aren't supposed to do it. That's a convenient response after you've been caught in a lie.
Show me your truth today.
What's truth to you?
Truth is also certainly subjective. What is one truth to you may not be to me. I suspect though you’re speaking about truth in the form of a person and their interactions with someone. I think it’s important to be truthful to an extent. If a girl asked me if she was fat I would say not at all! In reality she may be quite fat but I don’t want to hurt her with that truth so you make a small lie. This can certainly get complicated but I think the point is, with certain things you have to be subjective and look at a truth in a way that’s not so black and white.
Yes truth is very subjective but I believe truth can be black or white, plain and simple. A girl who asks if she is fat, did so because she needs to know the truth. It's not our position to determine what we feel the other person wishes to hear. It's our position to say the truth regardless of how it might make them feel. You just might be surprised, telling her that she is fat may not even make her feel bad but might make her see the need to watch her weight whereas the little or small lie might make her continue to indulge in the habits that makes her fat. You see? Our duty is to speak the truth and leave what happens to the receiver. They may not admit it but later on, they would come to appreciate the truth.
Thanks for stopping by.
Action speaks louder than words! So, truth to me would be judged by someone's way of doing things rather than what they say.
Why ask for the truth? Sometimes people just need something to hold onto, and spoken words would do justice to that.
There's obviously no fraction of a truth, but there can be many truths to a situation. This is where telling the whole truth may apply. 😂.
I hope my truth is being seen, because I'd like to exist as a good person.
Yes there can be many truths to a situation but this would be made easier if you as a person is a living truth. You'll never be doubted. That's truth to me, your personality, not your words.
And as for you my friend, exist as a good person and that will be your truth 🥰.
I'm sorry for the late reply. Thank you for stopping by and reading my gibberish. 😀
Yay! 🤗
