Seek the Truth But Remember - It May Not Be What You Think

"Seek the truth, but remember - it may not be what you think." This cautionary statement underscores the complexity of truth and the importance of critical thinking. In a world saturated with information, it is easy to be swayed by preconceived notions or biased sources. Proper understanding requires humility, openness, and a willingness to challenge our beliefs. By acknowledging the limitations of our knowledge and embracing diverse perspectives, we can approach the search for truth with integrity and discernment. We can only uncover the nuanced realities beneath the surface by remaining vigilant against misinformation and embracing intellectual curiosity.

Lots of actors, good and bad, have an axe to grind. Many deal in misinformation and disinformation to manipulate us. Work to be objective and seek additional points of view.

Generally speaking, the old adage of not trusting someone who says you can only believe them is a good first step. A great question to ask when someone tells you something they want you to believe is simply, "How do you know that?" If they say they have many theories but no evidence, that should be a red flag.
