Truths

God divided the world from the firmament - this is true. The Universe started with a Big Bang - this is also true.

You became self-aware and the universe accrued about your awareness to accommodate the new point of view - this too is truth.

Some instantly forgettable, yet infinitely quotable person, once wrote: "there is my truth and your truth and the actual truth probably lies somewhere in between." There's always another way of looking at the facts - of interpreting different truths. No thing is absolute, no fundamental premise incontrovertible - our spherically flat planet taught us that. Something should only ever be considered, at most: true enough. For current understanding. For present circumstances. For prevailing conditions. What's true enough for you, is not my business. What is true enough for me, is not yours. A truth should only ever be offered and never forced upon another.

The indelible croûtons of absolute truth may exist, arbitrarily, throughout the ever expanding pea soup of human knowledge - but its only at the end of that illimitable dish that we can say, with any glimmer of certainty, where those crumbs may lie.

And even then - the soup is usually just the first course.

(it always comes back to the soup - i really don't know why)
