Thirstless for Truth
Hmmm? What if the truth isn’t hidden from us, but rather, rejected by us?
This quote hits like a secret wrapped in thunder. It points to a peculiar aspect of the human condition: our unconscious inclination for comfort over clarity. Not because we’re lazy or dishonest, but because our minds have been wired and programmed to crave confirmation over confrontation. To obtain soothing over seeking.
Have we ever truly thirsted for truth, or have we been conditioned to cautiously sip only that which won’t disrupt our sense of identity or stability? How often do we turn away, not from lies, but from truths that challenge our concepts, our tribe, or the narratives we live by at any given time?
It’s not that the truth is too far out of reach, but too far outside our preferences.
What if we learn to see our resistance—not as a flaw—but as a signal? That our conditioning is speaking louder than our consciousness. That our sorting filter is rejecting truth, not because it isn’t true, but because it isn't comfortable.
Permit yourself to sit with this question:
What truth have you secretly known but silently ignored… simply because it doesn’t feel good to believe?
That… is some good shift.
