Truth

Truth...when, where, how, and why?

Interesting concept...should truth always be used? Note all this shit be my opinion only.

Why not truth, well I found some reasons from others...One, as not to hurt someone unless it is myself, wow...to believe this seems like a fallacy in and of itself.

I understand the concept of not hurting someone with knowledge that changes nothing but inflicts pain, however this seems to be false. The pain by not giving the truth in this case inflicts pain on yourself, are you worth nothing? Pain to our on mind is in some ways more damaging then someone else’s. We store all of that up and it creates a big shed, where our confidence and resentment live. These items need there own places but when put with our own sense or worth and pain, it changes our viewpoint. This is not so good.

It may not get us know, but it created layers that we don't see but will make us react and choose things from a blurred perspective that we do not even realize that we have.

The second part of that which makes it wrong, is we are denying the ability to allow others there feelings and reactions. Not that anyone wants to cause pain, but it does allow us to grow and learn from situations and good or bad, it is necessary in life. When someone hurts us we look at that situation, or we should. We learn something about them and about ourselves and if the relationship is a good one then that communication can only make us stronger.

So to me, the "I don't want to hurt someone with useless pain" seems to be a fallacy onto it’s self, you do cause a different pain by denying truth...you deny the strength of a really good relationship.

I got another person telling me they do the same thing ie..small little lies that have no bearing on stuff, but to them. They do this though with self protection in mind...now this reason is harder to understand, but actually makes the most sense...LOL.

We as humans have the instinct to self protect, but I still think by not sharing things truthfully we deny ourselves and others the ability to connect completely. Truth is the most basic item in every relationship we have. Trust, dependence, confidence and many other items all rely on the basic nature of truth within that situation, so by denying that we deny a completion of many other things. However, this type of truth is much harder to get past. We need to see and learn why we self protect...maybe evaluate our reasoning a bit more, who knows.

So many questions in life, so many answers, see but if we had all the truths, how fun would that be? Live your life to the best of your knowledge. Listen, learn, analyze and you will grow, my true believe. Thinking is good..not bah! like I was recently told...LOL!

Knowledge is a path and truth leads the way.

Good luck finding your way, I struggle daily, but it is all worth it in the end. Live, find joy, and don't forget to share it with those around you.

Later

ah self-protection, i know it well!

Just my two cents but i think the main thing about truth is that we are honest with ourselves. Without that how can you be honest with others.
