Finding the truth.

Seek the truth in all things.

“All credibility, all good conscience, all evidence of truth come only from the senses.” ~Friedrich Nietzsche

The source of information is, perhaps, more important than the information itself. We are constantly bombarded by a plethora of data every waking second. Within the modernized world, information is power, but not all information is accurate. Deriving the truth from the multitude of sources is often difficult.

Our own observation and analysis must be the true source of our knowledge. Self proclaimed experts are becoming more prominent, especially in the digital age. It is important to verify credible results with your own experiences, logic and senses.

Failing to do so we allow ourselves to be misled by individuals or ideas who have no true merit. Trust in your own judgement above all else and do all that is in your power to improve your critical analysis and deductive reasoning.

“We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory, stretching from every battle-field, and patriot grave, to every living heart and hearthstone, all over this broad land, will yet swell the chorus of the Union, when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature.” ~Abraham Lincoln
