Reflecting on many things, the way of knowing things, the nature of things the realization becomes ever more present that the characterization of things and the true nature of things are mostly far apart.
Enter the visionaries, the ones who have the dubious ability to see what is without filtration and spin. Vision in the literal sense.
Seeing the way of things.
Seeing the truth.
Visionaries also have an ability to see human potentials and likelihoods but here we are discussing the ability to see what is, what exists.
Looking about us we can see all the lonely people living under various illusions and allusions seasoned with delusion and listen to the blame game and allegations flying and be struck by the absolute incredible inability for the truth to be recognized, and then logically, respected.
When truth is recognized, it is ignored to serve a fraudulent desire to make reality in one’s own delusional model.
This is known as lying.
This is known as rationalization.
Lying to serve oneself.
Lying to deny and disrespect reality.
Lying for no reason other than habit and mimicry of those around us most.
The lies become so prevalent that humans begin to live under the apparition that truth is an opinion. Soon, the word gives way to meaning “one’s opinion” of events or facts.
Yet fact remains, and truth is fact, no matter our best efforts to obfuscate.
The paradigm of deceipt seems to be a permanent aspect of human nature, despite so many brilliant visionaries displaying a selfless ability to see the way of things as they are outside the human point of view and within the human condition as well.
So I am sitting here watching and listening and I am astounded but not surprised.
You’ve heard the saying that perception is 90 percent of reality, and that is true in terms of a society and culture, and is commonly present in its inhabitant’s actions, but the real truth is that perception is 100 percent false 99 percent of the time.
In the end, all I’ve got is the truth.
