nuance

Tristan Robert Lange

there is what was said
there is what was thought was heard
truth lies between
 
there is what’s written
there is what one thought was read
truth lies between
 
there is what one thinks
there’s what’s actually real
perceptions deceive

    • Tristan Robert Lange

      Hahaha! That's like a happy 100 years ago! LOL! Doh! Thanks, my friend! I am glad you stopped by and got a little confused! You're welcome! 🀣 All daftness aside, my friend, really appreciate your time and engagement! Well, I hope you don't mind but I have to get back to the future. Anyone see my DeLorean? 😜

            The truth is always between intention and interpretation, a powerful write about how we communicate. Enjoyed reading this!

              • TobaniNataiella

                A puzzle of how we decide what is true and what is not true, and each will have their own way of making that decision, or will they !!!, enjoyed the read.

                • Tristan Robert Lange

                    Truth generally does lie between. A most thought provoking writes. Very nicely done

                        there are many sides to every story, and the truth can never be accurately shared...full and complete the truth won't be until the ending

                        • Tristan Robert Lange

                          πŸ’― Which is what makes SΓΈren Kierkegaard, the foreparent (why genderize it? πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ) of Existentialism, one of my favorite philosophers. You totally hit the nail on the head my friend. Thank you so much for your time and engagement! πŸ™β€οΈ

                          • NinjaGirl

                            Always! I love his social critiques, anxiety and despair being important for human existence, and his thoughts on drawing near to Jesus.

                            • Tristan Robert Lange

                              Me too, my friend! He was quite the profound thinker…as are you! πŸ™β€οΈ He indeed was both a great philosopher and a great theologian.
