Random Thought 106 - Seeker of Truth

In every story, there are always different perspectives.  The perspective that we are seeing or made to see depends on who is telling the story.  When a story is self-serving, there are always loopholes in it and one may find logic and reasoning in order to provide a clearer picture of the perspective of that story.

When telling their story, there are people who are emotionally gifted.  They can move and persuade others with all their emotions and dramas.  They tend to project an image that only they can speak of the truth.  Before you know it, you've been blackmailed emotionally.

Some people does not easily embraces the tall tales of the story teller.  They tend to consider the logic behind it and reason with all plausible scenarios and evidences.  They are not gullible to simply embrace the story and believing it right away.

When a story is being told, especially if the setting is something outrageous and intriguing, we tend to seek for the truth.  There is no guarantee that the story teller is telling the truth and we also don't know his agenda behind it. Thus, we have to be extra careful about the promising tales of the story teller.
The seeker of truth is not governed by emotions nor embraces the sweet talks of deceiving tongues.  The seeker of truth explores all avenues and follows the righteous path no matter how hard and tiring it is.  He would even embrace the abyss of darkness in order to see the light of truth.  How can one becomes a seeker of truth when the path that he chooses to follow makes him set aside the established proper procedures and rules?  How can he proclaim the truth with conviction when he knows in his heart that the truth that he seeks started with deceits and lies?
