I want to write about Truth and Absurdity. I say… that for every “Truth,” there is an equal and opposite “Truth.” Of course I am not talking about the physical world but the world of a human, the one that is lived in his/her head. The human’s world that describes right and wrong, the way it is and the way it is not. The should and the shouldn’t.We are so not related to “The Truth” we don’t even get what it is. You know when you were born you were born into a language. You think today you use language, it is like a command of some sort. You describe and command with it. Well, language was here way before you. In early life it was very simple, you said “car”, “mommy” then it got a little more complicated. They said “Right,” “Wrong” and a bunch of other things. Those lived in the language you claim using before you got here. They made you. Language uses you, never the other way around. Philosophers talk about “Thrownness,” this captures the things you cannot change about yourself; where you were born, the date, the parents, your gender etc. Well one such way is the language you were thrown into. Do you realize overtime we think that those are our rights and wrongs, and shoulds and shouldn’ts. Consider we really never decided, it decided, we did not. The truths live in the language and we think we know them and that they are our truths.

So here are a couple of questions, there could be so many more: What would you be like if you were thrown in to the world in Afghanistan? What would you be like if you were thrown in to the world in China in a small peasant village? I can hear you saying, “but I was not,” well just go there in your thinking and see if you can see something else about “The Truth,” and if you are not willing to take your thoughts there then you got a bigger question you need to deal with about “The Truth,” why aren’t you even willing to go there in your thinking?

Bottom line; there is the physical world and then there is the one in your head, limited with the truths of the language you were thrown in to. Human-beings lie to themselves everyday, about everything. How will you expand? Should you? Why should you? Do you want to? Why do you?…. Why don’t you? I want to invite you to play a game. The game is the Master Game of life, you against your ass. Enjoy.

Thank you for reading.
