Greg’s View on the perception of truth
by Greg Arthur on Apr.28, 2009, under Greg's View on the World
As South Africans go to the polls to vote in a new government many are wondering what the truth is about the arms deal which has been causing such controversy. Is the soon to be new president really as innocent as he claims to be or is there really fire where there is smoke?
We all have many things in our lives that are a mystery and will never be solved and we feel that had we the answers then things would be different…we would be able to let it go. But this may not be the case because if we heard the truth we may still not believe it. We may dispute it and continue on our search for the truth; the truth that we hope for and want to hear.
So is it possible to ever discover the truth about your greatest questions? Who are you really? Why are you here? What is your purpose? If you received the answers to these questions in a dream would you believe them anyway…and so would they really then be the truth?
The truth is what you know it is; nothing more and nothing less. So if you know that you know nothing then that is the truth. Nothing is then the truth. If you are confused as to what your truth is then confusion is your truth. But there will always be truth even though you may surround yourself with lies – those lies are then the truth.
So, back to my original question about the arms deal and the soon to be South African president: what is your truth? Once you have that then it does not matter what stories you hear. So why not make the truth constructive? Make your truth about South Africa the most beneficial you can make it for you. Make it so brilliant that you influence the way that South Africa thinks and is. Be your truth.
