Hel-lo Canadian Music

Totally hooked on to this song lately. They play it frequently on CBC Radio 2 (my favorite radio channel since I moved to Canada). I really enjoy listening to this one when I'm driving in my car listening to the radio.

The Truth

Despite its infinite potential, is our mind strong enough to create truth?

Take the matter of pain, for example. If you are experiencing pain, and for some reason (either a pain reducing medication, hypnosis or natural therapy) your pain eases out – is the pain gone, or is it still there but you don’t know? And if you believe the pain is gone, isn’t that the truth then?

What about love? Isn’t love a state of mind too? Love can only exist if you believe it does. But even if you do believe, does it really? Is the mind creating the truth, or following it?

And what is the measure of success? Who can weigh it except you yourself? You may reach the pinnacle of everything you aim for, but if you still feel insecure, are you really successful?

Time, life, death, happiness, God, change…do these truths exist, or are they created by us? Do we believe in them so strongly that they become?

Each of us is in search of the truth. But even if we find it, will it be real, or just something we want to believe in?

Is it ever possible to know what the truth really is? And if it’s us who are creating it, why are we even searching? Doesn’t a truth with more than one version become a lie? So do we all want to believe in lies, while we remain insatiable for the truth?
