TRUTH IS A COGNITIVE DISSONANCE

By PABATAI ζ™‚ι–“ Tony Searl

1. The weakest are often most cruel.
2. The dumbest talk the most.
3. The most miserable are the most jealous.
4. The most insignificant are the most arrogant.
5. The wisest remain calm.
6. The strongest are always kind.
7. The smartest often stay silent.
8. The happiest live quietly.
Everyone says they hate a liar…until the truth costs them something.

It’s easy to demand honesty when it flatters you. 

It’s easy to praise “realness” when it confirms what you already believe. 

But the moment truth disrupts comfort, challenges narratives, or exposes illusions… 

the room gets quiet. 

Or loud. 

Fast.

Truth tellers don’t usually get applause. 

They get questioned. 

Misunderstood. 

Sometimes attacked. 

Not because they’re wrong… but because truth has a way of shaking foundations people built their identities on.

And here’s the part most don’t talk about… 

telling the truth isn’t about being right.

Truth is about being willing to stand alone if necessary. 

It’s about integrity over approval. 

Clarity over comfort. 

Alignment over popularity.


Not every “truth” is pure, and not every loud voice is honest. 

But when you speak from conviction, grounded in your lived experience, without malice and without ego… that’s different. That’s costly. That’s courageous.


The world says it wants truth. 

What it often wants is reassurance.

If you’re choosing honesty anyway… 

I see you clearly, 

Considerate Human.

"On the Sea" Beach House Out on the sea we'd be forgiven Our bodies stopped the spirit leaving Wouldn't you like to know how far you've got left to go Somebody's child Nobody made you It's not what you stole, it's what they gave you In or out, you go In your silence, your soul Would you rather go unwilling? The heart is full and now it's spilling Barreling down the steps Only a moment left In hind of sight no peace of mind Where you begin and I'm defined Daughter of unconscious fate Time will tell, in spite of me In hind… In hind of sight no peace of mind Where it begins and we'll be fine Shadows bend and suddenly The world becomes And swallows me in, me in Whistle to a friend Gentle 'til the end Any way in a name She takes shape just the same Listening To The Thunderous Seas Tonight, I Love This Song, so much Song of the Sea by Rainer Maria Rilke Timeless sea breezes, sea-wind of the night: ...

Run With The Wolf.

By PABATAI ζ™‚ι–“ Tony Searl

"Some people mistake being loving for being a sap. Quite the contrary,  the most loving people are often the most fierce and the most acutely armed for battle... for they care about preserving and protecting poetry, symphonic song, ideas, the elements, creatures, inventions, hopes and dreams, dances and holiness... those goodly endeavours that cannot be allowed  to perish from this earth, else humanity itself would perish..." "Having a lover / friend who regards you as a living growing criatura, being, just as much as the tree from the ground, or a ficus in the house, or a rose garden out in the side yard... having a lover and friends who look at you as a true living breathing entity, one that is human but made of very fine and moist and magical things as well... a lover and friends who support the criatura in you... these are the people you are looking for. They will be the friends of your soul...

“Why I Wake Early  Hello, sun in my face. Hello, you who made the morning and spread it over the fields and into the faces of the tulips and the nodding morning glories, and into the windows of, even, the miserable and the crotchety –  best preacher that ever was, dear star, that just happens to be where you are in the universe to keep us from ever-darkness, to ease us with warm touching, to hold us in the great hands of light – good morning, good morning, good morning. Watch, now, how I start the day in happiness, in kindness.” Mary Oliver Efferent Sea  Your Magic Glowing, No challenge to a deeper ocean as river rapids receive. Same as A Worldly Morning Star peeks, not competes,  to kiss Us,  We thank and never tire. Silent Sunrise, No Surprise  Like Us,  Our Nature flows Smiling, Simple,  Risen. by Tony Searl #luceatluxvestra
