  1. It may take a long time for human beings to be aligned with the truth, most people are starving for it.

    Sadly though, misinformation has proved to be a powerful weapon, it makes people believe that down is up and up is down.

    The CP Diary is not political, but it relays truth through a spiritual lens. I think that is the best way to see the light, to see the truth, unfiltered.

    1. Thanks Tim. Yes, I have always relayed the truth on and off my blog.

      I agree. It is the best and sticking my neck out here, the only way for us to see the truth. The truth must always be unfiltered, or it isn't truth.

      In Covid-19, it is what the world desperately needs right now. The universe is relying on us doing that for its and our survival.

  2. Nothing has any value until we put a value on it and the value of knowledge is subjective. What is objective, as Tim astutely says, is knowledge is of no value unless you understand and apply the truth behind that knowledge.

    Even then history has taught us, the truth is what someone can be made to believe, even when it is based on evil and prejudice.

    1. Thanks. I would go as far as to say that we're not done. In the 21st century politicians are repeating history. There is a difference between a person's truth and the universal truth.

      A person's truth is how he or she perceives it to be; the universal truth is the truth that applies to all the physical universe, truths that enlightens us, so that we may behave in ways that encourage, emotional and spiritual growth.

      It is clear from what is going on in the world, particularly in Covid-19 that is not happening. Putting your own spin on something doesn't make it true, however many times you try to convince others it is the absolute truth.
