A Stream of THOUGHT

Questions have answers, but there are no true answers. To find truth we need to know all sides, and the thing that is human within us cannot do this. The question remains as to what is reality and truth? What is the idea of self, that is so based on reality? Is who we are just what we think, and what is true? And if so can we therefor control what we are? Where do others fit into this reality? If we base our being on another, and find that person ripped away, do we become like a building without foundation, destined to fall? If we base our being on another, and then take it back, how do we affect the other? Are we both then destined to fall in a mutual hate? When we fall, can we get back up? If the mind of the self is lost, then what is there to push the lifeless body of being back up? When the mind leaves the realm of reality, and all that you were becomes question, how do you go about redefining yourself? The question over everything is where to draw the line between thought and reality... and if the mind can survive believing--knowing--that the reality is gone.

The truth is only what we see. Reality is what is. Without clarification, what we see--truth--becomes reality. And that is the great lie and flaw of humanity: taking what we see as reality, and believing that it is the only one.
