Hypocrisy


Hypocrisy is a funny thing.
A vast majority of the humans I know fiercely condemn hypocrisy, yet commit it nonetheless.

The interesting part is, they'll never acknowledge their own hypocrisy. They call it a misunderstanding or an understatement, or whatever excuse they see fit. Because if they admit it, they'll become those abominable creatures they despise so much.

That said, let's look at human nature. As humans grow, their environment change, and they experience new sensations at all moments. So, naturally, as time passes, their minds change. And things they said or did in the past might have been right at that time, but later became wrong.

Is this hypocrisy? Maybe so. But it's just another nuance of human nature. One of many.

Another interesting thing is how humans despise certain attitudes. And how the attitudes they despise usually are none other than the flaws they have themselves. But that's another subject, I'll get into it another day.

As long as there is life, there is change.

What is truth?


There are many things mankind has no knowledge of. This is something they know.
What they don't know is, that in their endless struggle for knowledge, they tirelessly search for complex answers, where simple truth lies.

Even when they're able to construct complicated structures and heal most of the known diseases, they still lack the ability to understand one another. Unable to understand each other, their differences turn to hate.

Since the beginning of what they call History, mankind has been waging war amongst themselves, generally because of divergent beliefs. And so in the name of God, they kill their very own kin, because they lack the ability to understand that their distant relatives believe in different things.

Both sides claim that they're right. That truth is in their side. Their god is the real God. And they just might continue on with such nonsense, until they bring their own doom upon themselves. They fail to understand that the very concept of reality isn't fixed.

Reality
is that what you perceive through your own experiences. That what you feel, you smell, you taste, you think. One might ask what's beyond that, what would be the absolute truth, something that's true, no matter what no one says.

It's my pleasure to let you know that, the absolute truth is a lie.

If there's no life, there's no truth.
