If Everyone Believes A Lie, It Doesn't Make It The Truth

How can it be that the world is full of lies? This is a hard realization to come to. Finding out the world as we perceive it is based on lies is a rough experience. It’s similar to being a kid and finding out Santa Claus isn’t real. Well, finding out about Santa, for me, was very subtle. It wasn’t like my Mom just sat down and told me. It was preceeded by a bunch of doubt and others talking about him not being real. Eventually I put two and two together and realized Santa was totally make believe and never believed in him again.

This is similar to how many people will start to realize the lies we’ve been fed are real and are meant to deceive us. The world is very different from what they would like for us to think. The deep truths behind this world of lies are so overwhelming that if one is awakened to too much of it at a time they will likely be resistant to taking in the newfound information.

Learning that nothing in the world is as you see it can be shocking to most people. You have to take it in small doses. Ease into it. The brain can only open up so much at a time. Of course you’ll take giant leaps at times and some times you’ll be stuck in a certain paradigm for a while but the only thing that stays consistent through time is change. Things will always change. Even if it’s a slow gradual change, times will change things. Make sure these changes through time lead toward truth. Many people are on a train headed in the direction of being more lost and confused, all orchestrated by propaganda and popular belief. Be a truth seeker! Sometimes the truth hurts.

When I tell a person too much at one time, or get ahead of myself explaining this world of lies, often I hear people say things such as “they would never do that to us.” I don’t know how the powers that shouldn’t be has everyone believing that but there’s really no evidence to support that idea. Somehow the government has everyone convinced that they have our best interest at heart. I’m here to tell you that’s not how I feel.

You’re the only one responsible for looking out for yourself. It’s your main priority over any one else’s. To assume they have a conveniently created complete system designed to optimize our life experiences would be naïve. That’s the way it should be but it’s not the way it is.

The truth is people lie. And often times, other people believe those lies. Is it possible that the masses have been deceived? Of course! So where do the lies stop? That is the question. I’ve been traveling down the rabbit hole to answer that question full time for about 10 years now, and I’m still learning more about how we’ve all been duped.
Question everything and keep an open mind. Your mind should be constantly changing as you learn more. If your mind doesn’t change over time, you must not be learning anything new. Just like self-care is the best medical care, self-education is the best education.

Start a journey of continual education. It has never been a better time to learn on your own. We have an unlimited amount of information easily accessible at our fingertips. Learn something new everyday, and make at least one move forward towards achieving your dreams.

What is the greatest of all lies you have come to understand as truth?

I used to try to give little bits of information to lead people in the right direction. Sometimes I would give out websites for people to check out. It is a very slow process to get people to pay attention and care. Most of the time they have to get hit in the face by reality to even think about changing their way of looking at the government. You hit all the reasons. Bottom line to me is: who do you trust? Do you trust the government? Or not? I don't. They do not have your best interest at heart.
