About Truth
"True" is a value that relates information to the reality it purports to represent.
Truth (information with a value of "true") has no options.
It can only represent reality.
That makes truth inflexible because it can only be what it is.
Therefore, truth is very demanding.
If you know it, you have to
live by it...or lie.
You can't rationalize against it because when you're done it will still
be there.
Well, there is another choice...
You can deny it, but then you have to live with the consequences.
Truth is more easily attained by the simple than the skillful of mind. For the simple, it’s a haven, a place of safety that defines those acceptable limits beyond which danger lies. Anyone can find happiness within these comfortable confines. However, for the skillful and the adventurous, truth is more like a mountain range, a great unknown fraught with dangerous slopes and treacherous crags. Because they go there, it becomes the duty of the skillful to secure those slopes and crags with guardrails and warning signs, first for their own safety, and then for the safety of others so the whole realm of knowledge may become accessible to everyone.
