Going through the social media just yesterday, a particular tweet got my attention and i couldn't shake of this weird feeling, i wanted to read more, i wanted to know more. i was intrigued by the barrage of comments that trolled the post some negative and some positive but what's more shocking is the content in itself.
@montycashmusic noted in his article titled Are humans dependent on conflict?
I have come to the realisation of truth. I have seen enough behaviour in many different forms while in a state of controlled observation to arrive at decided conclusions on things. Conclusions that are repeatable and that stick and that are often not what the average Joe considers to be 'reality'.
Apparently, the world has so much turned upside down that the concept of relationships, marriage, trust and truth is gradually eroding or should i say has been lost to time because what we see today is only a glimmer of what once existed.
The tweet was a combination of tweets by anonymous people who wanted to share their sexcapades and what intrigued me was that they were all lying to their spouses even as they engaged in such demeaning acts but still found a way to exonerate themselves. Now this brings me to the question, of what essence is it when truth has become a forbidden fruit in relationships.
when i talk about relationships, i ain't just talking about spousal relationships, but i am talking about all kinds of relationship, whether by marriage, by blood, by relation, by friendship, by commitment or by connection.
Let me give a breakdown on the concept truth. The English dictionary defined truth as
that which is true or in accordance with fact or reality
This simply means for something to be considered as a truth it has to be factual and in accordance to reality. there is no truth without verifiable facts and backed up reality. and oftentimes practicing the religion of speaking the truth always earns us the trust. Trust is a resultant effect of truth and without truth trust wouldn't exist.
In as much truth is factual and a reality, it can oftentimes be misconstrued and adulterated to the perspective of the teller. Have you ever wondered why relationships in the 21st century no longer last as they should, even the institution of marriage has failed woefully, together forever and forever after is now forever never after and there is little or no happy ending nor is there a silver lining.
The world has transcended from what it was to what it is because humans no longer value the concept of truth but instead our ideologies and action and reactions are fueled and controlled by our selfishness in the guise of survival instincts. the realities of today is so appalling that married individuals derive so much joy from lying to their spouse, and cheating because our moral compasses has been destroyed beyond repair.
This is so much worse to the extent that saying the truth all the time is seen as been boring, old fashioned or seen as a wimp but the truth should be what drives us as humans.
We got to this level because of the constant quest and inquisition into the knowledge of all things. we keep on evolving as humans in our quest to know the ultimate truth about the whole existence of the world, universe and the galaxies. in our search for light we continue to go deeper into the darkness and here we are today, corrupted by the very knowledge we try to seek.
make no mistake, oftentimes we know this truth, we are conscious of the truth but we decide not to tell it as it is not convenient for us. we delve deeper into a whole chocolate candy of lies just to cover up an act when the truth would have sufficed.
I am an advocate for speaking the truth always but then sometime we are stuck in a quagmire of whether to speak the truth or tell a lie or remain silent oftentimes because of the expected reaction on the third party or the ripple effect of letting the cat out of the bag.
I have realized as well that we oftentimes know the truth but don't want to hear it because the truth in most cases aren't pleasant and hard to digest but lies are easier and soothing to our ears. As we go about our daily activities of relating with people let's advocate to tell the truth most of the time if not all the time.

What’s your Greatest Fear?
Al revisar las redes sociales ayer, un tweet en particular llamó mi atención y no pude evitar este extraño sentimiento, quería leer más, quería saber más. Estaba intrigado por el aluvión de comentarios que arrastraron la publicación, algunos negativos y otros positivos, pero lo que es más impactante es el contenido en sí mismo.
@montycashmusic señaló en su artículo titulado [¿Los humanos dependen del conflicto?] (https://hive.blog/hive-174578/@montycashmusic/are-humans-dependent-on-conflict)
He llegado a la realización de la verdad. He visto suficiente comportamiento en muchas formas diferentes mientras estaba en un estado de observación controlada para llegar a conclusiones decididas sobre las cosas. Conclusiones que son repetibles y que se adhieren y que a menudo no son lo que el ciudadano medio considera "realidad".
Aparentemente, el mundo ha cambiado tanto que el concepto de relaciones, matrimonio, confianza y verdad se está erosionando gradualmente o debería decir que se ha perdido en el tiempo porque lo que vemos hoy es solo un destello de lo que alguna vez existió.
El tweet fue una combinación de tweets de personas anónimas que querían compartir sus aventuras sexuales y lo que me intrigó fue que todos estaban mintiendo a sus cónyuges, incluso cuando participaron en actos tan degradantes, pero aún así encontraron una manera de exonerarse. Ahora bien, esto me lleva a la pregunta, de qué esencia es cuando la verdad se ha convertido en un fruto prohibido en las relaciones.
cuando hablo de relaciones, no me refiero solo a relaciones conyugales, sino a todo tipo de relación, ya sea por matrimonio, por sangre, por parentesco, por amistad, por compromiso o por conexión.
Permítanme desglosar el concepto de verdad. El diccionario de inglés definió la verdad como
lo que es verdadero o de acuerdo con el hecho o la realidad
Esto simplemente significa que para que algo sea considerado como una verdad tiene que ser fáctico y acorde con la realidad. No hay verdad sin hechos comprobables y realidad respaldada. y muchas veces practicar la religión de decir la verdad siempre nos gana la confianza. La confianza es un efecto resultante de la verdad y sin la verdad la confianza no existiría.
En la medida en que la verdad es fáctica y una realidad, a menudo se puede malinterpretar y adulterar desde la perspectiva del narrador. ¿Alguna vez te has preguntado por qué las relaciones en el siglo XXI ya no duran como deberían, incluso la institución del matrimonio ha fracasado lamentablemente, juntos para siempre y para siempre es ahora para siempre nunca después y hay poco o ningún final feliz ni hay un lado positivo? .
El mundo ha trascendido de lo que era a lo que es porque los humanos ya no valoran el concepto de verdad, sino que nuestras ideologías, acciones y reacciones son alimentadas y controladas por nuestro egoísmo disfrazado de instintos de supervivencia. La realidad de hoy es tan espantosa que las personas casadas se alegran tanto de mentirle a su cónyuge y de hacer trampa porque nuestra brújula moral se ha destruido sin remedio.
Esto es mucho peor en la medida en que decir la verdad todo el tiempo se considera aburrido, pasado de moda o como un cobarde, pero la verdad debería ser lo que nos impulsa como seres humanos.
Llegamos a este nivel debido a la constante búsqueda e inquisición del conocimiento de todas las cosas. Seguimos evolucionando como humanos en nuestra búsqueda por conocer la verdad última sobre la existencia total del mundo, el universo y las galaxias. en nuestra búsqueda de la luz seguimos adentrándonos más en la oscuridad y aquí estamos hoy, corrompidos por el conocimiento mismo que tratamos de buscar.
No nos engañemos, muchas veces conocemos esta verdad, somos conscientes de la verdad pero decidimos no contarla porque no nos conviene. profundizamos en todo un bombón de mentiras solo para encubrir un acto cuando la verdad hubiera sido suficiente.
Soy un defensor de decir la verdad siempre, pero en algún momento estamos atrapados en un atolladero de si decir la verdad o decir una mentira o permanecer en silencio a menudo debido a la reacción esperada en el tercero o el efecto dominó de dejar salir al gato. de la bolsa.
También me he dado cuenta de que muchas veces sabemos la verdad, pero no queremos escucharla porque, en la mayoría de los casos, la verdad no es agradable ni difícil de digerir, pero las mentiras son más fáciles y tranquilizadoras para nuestros oídos. A medida que avanzamos en nuestras actividades diarias de relacionarnos con la gente, aboguemos por decir la verdad la mayor parte del tiempo, si no todo el tiempo.

¿Cuál es tu mayor miedo?
To be honest I don't believe in marriage and love till eternity. I do believe people make mistakes, wrong choices, some need more freedom, excitement and it's clear most people lie. We live in a fake world where liars are appreciated and those who speak the truth are killed. We love to believe our world is perfect and prefer to hide the truth because we can not deal with failures, disappointments, disasters, misery. No one prepared us for that. It would help if we had a backup plan next to life experience and the will to open our eyes!
