Truth

What does truth mean?

Does it come in colours, flavours, styles, shapes?

Does it come it add-ons or is it a case of it is what it is?

Universally, the word means the same. That must mean that a lie means the same too then, right?

So why do people claim to be honest yet distort the truth to what works for them? Opinion is opinion and fact is fact.

I've read profiles on here and then came across some people in chat/blog/forum and seen the opposite of what the profile says....so even though life or people aren't black and white, the truth is the truth right?

I for one am seriuosly put off by profiles, they are bog standard words to describe a good day or hype something up more than it really needs.

Be human people, real, true and honest!!

Sp4rkle, I so agree with you!

People tend to say what they think others want to hear from them. They rarely ever say what they truly mean and I think that most of us (myself included) dont even know what we truly want to say. LOL.. It can become annoying though when you read something about someone and then they turn out to be the total opposite of what they claim to be! Sad!
basically truth is a big word.....and sometimes people doesn't like it, or sometimes people just think in a different way...is like the glass...is half empty or half full....so probably that's why you find some discrepancies in people's profiles, or also because our mirror or our souls are not completely clean...
i always use to say that i hate lies....i'm probably wrong just because i said that?
and also i have a question for you:
do you think that we humans are without sins?
anyway...i agree with you...i wrote a similar blog....hug
Thats a good way of putting it...its not possible for anyone to be without sin...which i think is a good thing really...but its how we portray ourselves, such as communication which helps to define us in a truer light!

Thanks for your comments guys...I enjoy reading other peoples thoughts/opinions :)

Hi Sp4rk1e
Yes truth should be black and white but it never is.
In profiles I guess people can blow it up out of proportion to make it or them 100% better or cry it down to make it seem feasable.
As the saying is" Read the profile" digest it and take it with a grain of salt.
Dont think you can know anyone by a profile.
Its only words whether they be true or false.
Humans arent all real,true and honeast.

Ever heard of truth in advertising? Dating profiles are advertising...also people sometimes don't know the full truth about themselves. There are those who try to hurt others with their version of "truth" - run far far away when someone tries to tell you your truth. It is hard enough to find their own...how audacious to think they know yours?

I remember a man I knew long ago who kept telling me with words how kind he was. But his actions were that of a very cruel man. The sad thing is he believed the opposite about himself, even when he was threatening to hit me over the head with a broken bottle when he was angry.
The truth, universal honesty comes down to your interpretation of colour/color, flavour/flavor.

Loaded questions as such are about you. What is your reality and says who?
Kind of. So many things in life don't have an absolute answer, and what is true and what is false is often down to interpretation.

Generally, as long as people have a reason to, they will tell you what you want to hear, be it true or false.

To me dishonesty is a cross between a necessary evil and cowardice.
Truth ? it comes from the Heart. If not, it's a lie.

It means you respect yourself.
It means you respect the others.

Truth can hurt. Badly. But it frees and gives the opportunity
to grow.

well, that's what it means for me
If it doesn't come from the heart, it's a lie? confused
