As a forty year old woman who has lived some life, the thing that makes me most puzzled about humanity is our arrogance in thinking that our unique perceptions are true or truth and then deciding that our truths should be imposed onto others. We then start judging, condemning those who dont believe how we do and assume ourselves to be superior to others who dont share our beliefs. Regardless of what your truth is, or my truth is, its all a bunch of horse shit really because as humans we are all limited to our Earthly experiences. No matter how righteous you may be, or feel your cause is, I assure you there is someone with an opposite view who feels just as strongly as you do and just as you would dismiss them, they shall dismiss you. The paradox of morality is you can not decide it for others. And perhaps this is the ultimate cause of suffering on earth. Judgment of things as good and bad. Thinking we understand anything of what is happening here. We are each unique humans living our own unique dream of existence. We decide what is truth based on our limited experiences not ever being able to appreciate or understand a tiny bit of all that exists. How can we pretend to know what is right for someone else when often we are unsure of what is right for ourselves and find that our ideas of right change with our life experiences. Truth might just be the biggest lie of all.
