So yesterday I get an
email notifying me that 'The
Truth' wants to be friends on MySpace. I was startled, to
say the least, because I thought I already knew The Truth.
Maybe not.
It's
a Zen kind of thing, knowing The Truth
is out there... and on MySpace of all places.
I thought I'd found The Truth
on ActiveRain a time or two, but it just turned out to be posts from
Lenn Harley or Ken Cook - true enough but not The Truth
apparently.
I haven't found The Truth
on FaceBook or Twitter, although there's some funny stuff on there and
I think some of it's true.
No
Truth
on YouTube or LinkedIn or Plaxo.
Certainly no Truth
in Sacramento or Washington DC.
There are over
124,000,000 Google hits for The Truth,
including one that lays claim to The Truth.com,
but they're just an anti-smoking website that runs those edgy
commercials. True maybe, but not The Truth.
I
used to discover what
I thought was The Truth
with my friend Jack Daniels but I'd always
forget it by the next morning - so it may have been an illusory truth,
not
The
Truth after all.
Carlos Castaneda clamed
to have found The Truth
using mescaline & peyote. I tried that route once and got
sicker than a dog and that's The Truth.
Since
it was just spelled The Truth
I don't know if it's The
Cosmic Truth or The
Truth and nothing but The Truth (so help me God). I
suspect that The Truth
would have a bolder signature - THE
TRUTH - with trumpets and a drumroll when you
click the link. I don't know.
I suppose I should just
click over there and find out what the hell's going on with The Truth.
But to be honest - I
don't know if I can handle The Truth.
I'm a little afraid of The Truth.
Will it be The
Honest Truth, The Ugly
Truth, The Undisputed Truth, The Naked Truth?
Thank heaven it's the
weekend - it gives me time to uncover The Truth,
deal with The
Truth and see if I can twist The Truth
to my own purposes.
I'll let you know...

Very True!
