If a tree falls in the forest and nobody hears it does it make a sound?
An age old philosophical question which has always bugged me. Of course it does. However I've friends who still insist that for something to happen it has to be observed. Why is it that us humans place so much value on ourselves that there are those of us who believe that things haven't happened unless they have seen it? |

Is Truth Subjective?

I'm not really sure where this thread is going however I'll answer the original question with my thoughts. (Or perhaps the thoughts of a past lecturer of mine from my uni days.)
Let me share a story with you. A man is walking down a street when he yells out at the top of his voice as he begins to have a heart attack and colapses to the ground. A passer by quickly leaps to action and begins to preform CPR. Another person looks out of their window as this occurs and sees the passer by attacking a man on the ground. The truth of the situation comes from your perspective. If you don't see everything then you don't really know what is going on. For each person our own truth is limited by what we observe and our past experiences, which combine to form a truth in our minds. So yes truth is subjective. |

It's been nearly 2 weeks since an Auzzie posted here so I thought I'd bring us back up to date.
So if you could live anywhere in this great country where would you go? Me. I'm currently in country Victoria however Perth seems like a nice quiet city to explore. |

The Journey

I've walked so many roads
I've carried those heavy loads. I've found a world of places I've seen sorrow in so many faces. I've travelled far and wide I've experienced pain inside. I've felt incomplete, not whole I've discovered the void, my soul. I've only come to be free Because you journey with me. |
