Truths
I've decided to list the ones that I've found so far.
1.) It is far easier to find lies than truths.
2.) There are many truths, but many more lies.
3.) Lies can be disproven, and most truths can never be proven.
4.) Everyone will inevitably disappoint you at some point.
5.) Disappointment is neither good nor bad in and of itself.
6.) There is no unifying truth, no ultimate purpose.
7.) Truth differs subjectively between perspectives as it bends, contorts, and is sometimes shattered beyond all recognition.
8.) Few people are entirely truthful, especially not those who never tell a lie; their faces are painted skillfully, and often it is nearly impossible to know what they really look like.
9.) True love is a vicious myth, visiting pain and broken expectations among those who believe it.
10.) Love grows from friendship, warmth, trust, caring, empathy, and devotion.
11.) Love also grows from hate, frustration, disgust, loathing, miscommunication, and inconsistency.
12.) Careful observation reveals more than conversation; seeing how people juggle others is a much better lens through which to view character than looking directly at them.
13.) Everyone manipulates others to a certain degree, even those they love with all their hearts.
14.) Luck is the favorable result of several decisions made with varying degrees of arbitrariness, not the force behind those decisions; there is no such thing as this definition of luck.
15.) There is never a reason to deprive yourself from something pleasurable, save that it will harm another.
16.) No one else has any license to drive your life. You're born with that, it came in your baby-sized shrinkwrapped box, and it is inseparable from you.
17.) Worrying is useless. Stop it.
18.) Guilt is useless. Learn, and then let it go.
19.) There's no wrong way to eat a Reese's.
20.) Good people think bad thoughts.
21.) Bad people act on bad thoughts.
So that's what I got so far. I may add to this list sometime... I think it'd be a fun daily list to keep up with. Just one thing a day, write it in my notebook, and keep track of it. Never know what I could come up with... it could be kind of cool.
