Over the years, I have developed a hunger for veracity, truth.
Anything wedged in my mind that is not truth, will only make me pretend I am sane.
I enjoy this site because I get truth through mindfulness and analytical thinking, something we all need these days.
Thank you. I agree we all need to hear the truth and the only way to get that as you have said is through mindfulness and analytical thinking.
Not everyone either understands how to be mindful or use analytical thinking, but without either, it isn't always easy to gage the truth.
The good thing is that it's not too difficult to learn, but we have to want to be truthful and continue to work with truth through these mediums.
