《Collection of Short Stories?》[Perception]
Advertisement
When looking at a sculpture you must walk around it viewing it at different angles to be able to see the work of art in its entirety. Truth just like the sculpture has different interpretations depending on how it is being perceived and who it is being perceived by. And all these different interpretations of truth cannot be defined by a flat overarching statement just like how a sculpture cannot be depicted by a single photo. When trying to make an overarching statement you might get something paradoxical, contradictory, or both. For example, a good person follows the law, a good person breaks the law. This statement tries to pull together two different contexts that individually make each statement true, but creates something contradictory in the end. A sculpture by nature is three dimensional making it impossible to be fully viewed in something two dimensional like a photo without heavily distorting the sculpture. Truth is also multidimensional and cannot be fully defined through just one point of view without heavily distorting its original meaning or completely changing the meaning itself. Truth is not meant to be viewed all at one, but to be taken in piecemeal.
When writing this I understand that in trying to define a truth about perception I am also trying to make a complete statement about truth, but that statement is definitely incomplete.
