RE: Facts and feelings

in #thoughts4 years ago

Oh yes, you mention something that is very underestimated thanks! Absolutely, a couple of years ago " facts" were exclusively scientific papers, whereas a 'fact' today can simply be something I found somewhere on the internet, or what my parents say.
Even with how mainstream media and the entertainment business evolved, some people take their authority so serious they take all the information they get there at face value.

I like what you said, we all shall find out what is true for us and what not. In the vibe of Sovereignty, I feel like now is also a great moment to think for ourselves how we would "define" a fact for ourselves. Just like creating your own user guide of like "at what point is something irrefutable for me" or "how do I usually need to be convinced to believe something is true"
Simple reflections like that invite us also to consider our flexibility towards 'hard facts' in general. Gives us a little scale to understand our 'necessity' of facts and in which contexts for example etc.

Cheers!! Happy Weekend!
