Can u handle the truth

Are you a person who likes 2 hear the truth or are you the type of person who just want 2 hear what sounds good?

Are you the type of person who tells the truth or do you sugar code it in hope of making you look good?

The Truth
Look around you. What do you see?
Faces like you? Faces like me?
Every culture is beautiful and has stories and wisdom to give.
You can draw from the strengths of all of them, that is the best way to live.
The truth is this world is limitless in the customs and joys it brings
The truth is that there is more than one way to do just about everything!

Live your life with Truth!

I think I'm a very straight-talking person. Although it can give people the impression that I'm being abrasive, usually people who know me well appreciate my directness, honesty, and complete lack of tact smile

I don't like bullshit and I don't appreciate bullshittery smile

i am a firm believer in the truth, but far too many peoples' "truths" are based in no logic or provable method. they just decide it's the truth because it makes them happy

there is a tremndous difference in speaking the truth bluntly and just being abrasive. giving someone the finger is not classy at all, it's a sign of lack of intelligence when one has to resort to such things.

if someone doesn't like what you are saying, you should try to make them understand it. wrting them off in such a rude and dissmisive way gets nothing accomplished, and just makes you seem rude and unintelligent.

Well some people are just bull headed, and would not admit 2 seeing what you see even if you try 2 explain, some people are just stubborn 2 the point where even if they did understand where you coming from, they'll still just try 2 phuck with you just because...

So instead of carrying on and on with a pointless agrument, it's just best 2 flip them then go on about your marry ways, I'll bet you then they'll get the point even if they pretend as if they don't understand...

or perhaps the person who thinks they are speaking the truth is wrong, but they are so ridiculously stubborn and close minded that they are in fact, blind to the truths of the universe. flipping someone the finger rather than trying to understand their perspective seems to be a way of saying "i know everything, and have no reason to listen to anyone else" that's not truth that is close-minded ego problems.

Hey Speak 4 urself, I have no problem admiting when I'm wrong, unlike some of you guys, I don't go off on the whole male ego triping thing, as far as being narrow minded .. please, who's 2 judge, really? I'm young but I'm wise enough 2 know I don't know everything,I don't have a problem being corrected when i'm wrong if someone comes up 2 me in the proper manner, but what I do know is the truth best 2 my understanding. Even if everybody doesn't agree...

true or false,
Is blue the opposite of green?


this is my other alternative other then flipping somebody off .lol

first of all, i was not speaking of you, it was a hypothetical.

second, your statement "I don't go off on the whole male ego triping thing" is a very sexist statement. since when is ego organic only to men?

third, FALSE! if you look at a color wheel you will see that the opposite of blue is orange. green's opposite is violet.

Therapy

The truth at any point, is to be in realisation of ones true nature. And there are degrees of truth.

Being an authentic person is very hard, but I would rather live with that difficulty than be plagued with not sharing the truth with myself. The more one is authentic, the more one becomes a truth junkie and the less tolerant one is of self betrayal by being untruthful with one self or others.

Isn't that what life is about? Fulfilling the potential? That is where my love for self and others occurs, experiencing in myself and sharing with another our truths.

and i think that the truth can be egregiously abused. it is fine for one to have self-found truths, and to use those to make our life better, but i don't think it is acceptable to create "truths" about other people and use them to down others.

i agree with therapy, that the truth is relative. there are irrefutable truths - i hardly need give examples - but most "truths" in life are merely opinions, especially when someone is declaring a "truth" about a group of people of which you are not. I can only speak the truth of my life, therapy can only speak the truth of therapy's life, etc. everything i would declare as "truth" about therapy's life is merely opionion and conjecture

I prefer the TRUTH from ppl. It may hurt & it is just their opinion, but doesnt do U any good if someone lies 2 U. I also try 2 tell ppl the truth. However, I usually do it in a way that wont bring them "down" to the curb. It's all in the presentation. I really do not like lies of any kind.
May the BELLS ring 4 U even when ur not in love. hug kisses

I think I'm a very straight-talking person. Although it can give people the impression that I'm being abrasive, usually people who know me well appreciate my directness, honesty, and completel lack of tact smile

I don't like bullshit and I don't appreciate bullshittery smile

Ditto ... nod

You gotta be straigt ,even if it's not 2 anyone else but yourself. It's important 2 be true 2 who u are cuz you the only you you got lol. If somebody don't like how the I dress, what I believe in or the things I've got 2 say, you just gotta give them the finger sometimes and say :Fu:

lol Now that's 100% class

there is a tremndous difference in speaking the truth bluntly and just being abrasive. giving someone the finger is not classy at all, it's a sign of lack of intelligence when one has to resort to such things.

if someone doesn't like what you are saying, you should try to make them understand it. wrting them off in such a rude and dissmisive way gets nothing accomplished, and just makes you seem rude and unintelligent.


Well some people are just bull headed, and would not admit 2 seeing what you see even if you try 2 explain, some people are just stubborn 2 the point where even if they did understand where you coming from, they'll still just try 2 phuck with you just because...

So instead of carrying on and on with a pointless agrument, it's just best 2 flip them then go on about your marry ways, I'll bet you then they'll get the point even if they pretend as if they don't understand...

some people find it much easier to lie than tell the truth.
if you r a person who is so use to tellings lies first then you don't know how to tell the truth. no matter how long a lie will last it will one day come back to you. so don't think you r getting off easy because you r not. people need to remember a lie can be check out.like the saying goes

the truth will set you free

When it comes to telling the truth, I guess I sugar coat it to be polite, because if the truth hurts too much, I'd rather not hurt the person, if it's not nessessary.
