each person has it’s own set of opinions and beliefs and when he discuss about something with other people he has it’s own “absolute truth” which is based on this set
but the other people have their own set, and their own truth…
I’ll give an example regarding “truth” :
Person A believes : “you should focus on enjoining the little things in life each day”
Person B believes : ” life has a purpose, everything should have a meaning, and the focus is for long term to be able to fulfill destiny”
so who is right ? each one of them knows “the truth”…but it’s only the way they perceive life.
so in such matters I believe that each one should live his life according to his truth, and should NOT try to persuade other people that his truth is the absolute truth !!!
if someone else see the way you live, and appreciate the results you have achieved, and wants to know more…you might consider sharing your truth to him
but be very careful and gentle, because you might rock their whole world, remember that till now they lived under a set of believes that you are now actually say they were wrong for their entire life ( till now ) and it’s a very difficult thing to accept.
so start by asking what are they trying to improve, and ask yourself how are your life in this area really like.
