Ho hum. I suppose it's time to really make an effort on things. To [i]do[/i] something. I find myself feeling as if I stand upon the edge of an infinitely deep precipice. Anywhere I jump, the fall will be endless. Life could go almost anywhere, and I find myself dawdling at the edge of a jump. I have projects right left and centre and little or no motivation to go anywhere.

And yet I learn. I'm always learning, in everything I do, I'm learning, searching for the truth.

If there's one thing I've learned, it's that people will twist the truth to suit their needs, like bending the rules of a computer system.

They are deluding themselves. The truth is the truth regardless of what you or I think. Whether we even know it exists. It doesn't matter. It is simply the truth. People once considered the earth flat. You know what?

They were wrong.

The truth in this situation was that the earth is like a flattened ball. Yes, that's right, it's not completely round either.

We, in our arrogance will twist it because we don't like it. This does not change the truth, only our perception of truth. One of my favourite stories that circulates around the fantasy realm is that of the warrior who is confronted by a king or leader.

"This is a lovely cat is it not?" Said the king.
"My lord," Said the warrior, "I can find a thousand mangy tom's like that on the street."
The king was pleased, "Well done, all others before you praised it, saying how exotic it was. How wonderous was the hole in it's ear. How lovely the lines of its body."
The end was that this was a test and that the warrior was rewarded fittingly.

The simple matter of it was to see past the layers, to ignore the trappings and see the truth of things. But even more importantly. To [b]state[/b] the truth of things.

Yeah, of topic, but who cares. Nobody follows this thing anyway.
