I once believed there would always be an underlying truth in everything. Well that was a long time ago...Now days I think there is only what we make of the world. I mean no matter what, we just cant escape subjectivity. There are no unbiased, objective viewers of a matter. Everyone is human, and thats not a bad thing, but it is definitely not something that is impartial. People make the truth for themselves; people see what they want to see.
Personally i think this is what allows some people to over come extreme situations, they just dont see it as something hopeless like a 'normal' person would. Our outlooks on life determine how we act. they say the greatest illusion of all is 'free will'. To a certain extent, i believe it is true, there are so many things in our past which mold us to what we are now, that our responses to situations 'force' us into the paths we 'choose'. So even if we do have a choice, the way we have lived our lives make us lose our free will, makes us slaves to ourselves. We do what we would always do, preferences and favourites make us lose much of our unpredictibility. which is where i think the line is drawn, because in the end if we do something unpredictable perhaps that is a sign we still retain some of our freedom after all.
