How Do You Find TRUTH?

Would you know TRUTH when you see it?  Hear it?  Feel it?

Is TRUTH something that sneaks up on you unaware …then slaps the back of your head to get your attention?

At one time or another I’ve questioned nearly every aspect of my life as to why I was experiencing whatever was occurring then.  And I still do.

Throughout my life I’ve questioned most people I’ve ever known about LIFE itself; questioned many self-proclaimed authorities for every subject I’ve studied or encountered, and probably questioned every religious doctrine ever perused for answers to my deepest, most perplexing questions—only to find those sources nearly as ‘clueless’ as I myself was at the time or may still be to that extent.  

Sure they all had ANSWERS, but they weren’t MY answers or ones that felt right for me.

In essence, one of the few things I DO now know is that much of what we experience while in this plane of existence is meant purely for EFFECT; meaning that it is meant to be a catalyst to increasing your awareness of yourself and your abilities to create change around you; and it is meant to expand your overall consciousness of yourself as a thinking, feeling being who has control over her thoughts, emotions and actions.

Therefore when we simply buy into everything that we are told to think and feel about the world around us, we lose our ability to make those observations and accurate assessments for ourselves, which counters the primary reason for our being here.

So to me, one of the highest and most intelligent questions you can ever ask anyone or even to ask yourself is “WHY?” because it signifies the very reason for your existence here.

I will warn that people around you do get a little sick of hearing that 3-letter word so frequently—a little annoyed at being asked to question their own motivations and behaviors, but if it gives them just a moment’s pause to assess their options before acting automatically toward one direction or another, then it is well worth the aggravation incurred for them.

The problem is they just may not realize it yet, nor appreciate your bringing it to their attention.

But hey, that’s okay.

TRUTH isn’t always comfortable or easy to swallow.

But it IS always TRUTH—in whatever form it chooses to adopt.

And that’s what this LIFE is all about, isn’t it—about finding your own TRUTH.
