Truth Is

If you had to ask, you're probably thinking it, too.

If I refused to answer, it's practically an admission.
If I answered 'yes', then what? So what?
If I answered 'no', would you have been convinced?

For me, trusting means not having to ask. For most of the time, that is. But then, we only want the truth of the matter, right?

If there's one thing I learned from "The Good Wife" (a CBS legal drama whose Season 1 I marathoned last week, haha), it's that truth can be over-rated. One can always lie -- many people are good at it. One can always spin the truth to one's advantage -- most of us do this all the time anyway. Heck, the 'official' truth can even be negotiated or bargained for!

Some truths shouldn't matter. They wouldn't and shouldn't affect how you look at things or at other people. If you had to insist on knowing, then it would probably matter. Or that you're just too nosy for your own good.

Apparently, there's some sort of elephant in the room. And I don't care, that's why I don't see it.
