The beauty of being Human
I have gotten away from my disclaimers. I used to pronounce often that I encourage you to go and do research yourself. As I am inviting you to do so. I do not look for you to agree with me. I want you to find the truth.
Keep others perspectives in mind as you research. The entire world is at your fingertips right now. And whilst listening to me is a start, do not rely on me as a source.
I am giving my broad view of the world that I see. I am not always right. I sometimes disagree with myself as I go back and listen to the things I have said. But I take that new inspiration into my venture. Highlighting the importance of not believing anything, never taking it for face value, always looking for another way. I am not so conceited as to think that I'm correct and should never question my own words. I, myself question them all the time. It is the evolution of thought, always being open to suggestion and information is the beauty of being human.
Relatively speaking the amount of information that satisfies you and makes you decide on something may not be enough for the next person. Or maybe overwhelming to them.
See how easy it is to change perspective and never be able to answer it for someone else.
The mother is not wrong, nor is the person without children. It's a matter of perspective. These truths are dynamic. Each and every statement invites more facts for consideration, more possibilities for pondering upon. Each development has infinite variables based on whom you ask and final variables. Considering anything you must remember that not only that event is still unfolding, but also every single person that learns of it, is interpreting it in a different way. So no matter whom you ask in the future, you might find a slightly different version of the story. In fact, the person that you ask may have had to believe in what they saw or heard changed over time into new input of information. And you will be the recipient of all inclusive little and numerous facts they have picked up along the way.
The only thing we can do with facts is to take them into consideration for future reference. And I can assure you that it does evolve very fast. In fact I feel like that is the only real truth out there. Truth is more than a virtue that a person can have, a search and a need for truth. Am I saying that we all search in vain? Hardly!
Because to resign yourself to believing anything is foolish. Believe is a powerful word, it means that you're search is over. That you have nothing else to learn. The truth is no longer relative for you can share it. And it is no longer abstract as you can see it. You aren't open for suggestion so it ceases to be dynamic.
Believe means that you can no longer learn. Even above the things, which you believe, for their nature is dynamic as well. Ever evolving, forever abstract and relative as it is your believe, as you see it.
Negating the possibility to share it because of its dynamic nature. Not even faith is powerful enough to overcome the nature of truth. Faith is inherently blind without question.
When you stop questioning reality, you cease to embrace free will. Though this is what makes you human, the search for truth is paramount, despite me, for I have told you the truth can't be obtained. But should you give up on it, the truth will escape you, as the search for truth is the true liberty afforded to you by god in the form of free will, no matter what you believe god to be.
I don't believe that I have an idea that god is true. Dynamics, abstraction and relativity. These are the things, I believe, the laws of truth. But that's just my opinion isn't it?
I want you to share this with someone and see what conversation it starts. Remember the importance of search for truth. For the survival of the human species as a whole. The importance of lying our differences aside and having a good conversation.

Hallway
I try to find the right thing to say, but the appropriate words seem lost to me.
She smiles sheepishly and gives excuses. "I'll talk to you later," she says.
I know it isn't true.

Dancing at work
And stand before each other. Too close for comfort. I try not to look into her eyes but still listen to what she says.
She steps back and forth again. Then to the left and to the right.
After a few tries and a few laughs I grab her hand and and pull her close to me, as I look into her eyes. She lets go and says she needs music to do this.
I know her better than that.
She spends 10 minutes looking for the right song.
She comes back and grabs my hand and we start to dance.
