Nope, you may not like everything you hear but it's all just information right?
Whether it's right or wrong or we agree with it or not, it is up to us to make a decision on what feels right for us to either take on board, or leave it with all the other info that is out there.
Sometimes we have beliefs and ideas that are so ingrained in us that we don't realize how we actually perceive things.
We now live in a time where everything is literally out our fingertips.
I was just taking a moment today admiring at how the world is because of the internet. We have data at our fingertips. If we want to find a book we can order it online or head into a bookstore ourselves. It's all there, accessible like never before.
Perhaps there is too much information for us to get through. We are bombarded daily with media sites, subliminal advertising, news, human talk and everything we scroll through in our phones and laptops. System overload!
I don't blame you if you have no idea what is actually real and what is fiction...I am probably half way in that thought pattern myself. Truth has been blended with "alternative facts", reality is hidden through films and books, and journalists have lost their reputation as reputable sources.
If you believe in something say it. If you know something that another person doesn't, talk about it. Your friends may not agree with you on 99% of the things you say (if that is the case it might be time to get new friends), but that 1% may help them, it may be a seed that gets planted that grows when the time is right.
If you are adamant on your beliefs ask yourself:
Why is that? Where did my beliefs come from? Do they serve me? Do they reflect the person I am today?
It is OK to change your beliefs, in fact it is healthy to do so. It is OK to change your mind. (I didn't always like spicy food but now I do, the same goes for spinach). It's OK to grow and to want to know more, it's a part of life.
Learn, learn, and keep learning. As your mind expands with new knowledge you will find what feels right for you, you will see through the facade of false headlines, through panic and fear, and you will find truth in a world of charlatans, gossip and Chinese whispers. The heart is never wrong...follow it.
