Hello everyone, and a very good day to all. I'm back again with another intriguing topic to discuss. Today, I'll be navigating the landscape of the concept of truth, delving into a personal exploration of subjectivity and reality. This is profoundly intricate and a fascinating topic – the nature of truth and its subjective and objective dimensions. This exploration isn't just another intellectual exercise. It's a journey into understanding how different perceptions, experiences, and realities intertwine to shape our understanding of the world, life, or anything, for that matter.

A little context before diving into this realization I had: although two individuals might be on the same page about a topic, their perception or perspective, even if the inference they draw from the experiences is the same, the way each individual conveys, communicates, or even words it could be different. And these differing wordings could mean different things, right? That's the context for this discussion. So, the conversation, at least the conversation I'm leading today, will be along these lines, exploring how experiences, possibly challenging or unreasonable, shape our understanding and lead to what we might call subjective truths.
Stay with me as we explore these depths together, shedding light on our unique experiences and how they form the tapestry of our perceived realities.

Understanding Subjective and Objective Truth:

Now, let's start with the basics of the concept of truth, focusing on its two dimensions: objective and subjective truth. These are the two types of truths we encounter in our lives. Objective truths are universal facts, unaltered by personal feelings or opinions. They are consistent and verifiable. For instance, the boiling point of water at sea level is an objective truth – a universal fact that is testable and verifiable beyond doubt.

On the other hand, we have subjective truths. These are deeply personal and shaped by individual experiences and perceptions. They aren't universal but are equally real to the person experiencing them. A simple example is our taste preferences, which are subjective truths. What tastes delicious to one person might not appeal to another. I'm giving very layman examples here for our understanding right now.

The distinction between these two types of truths is essential in understanding how we perceive and interact with the world around us. Objective truths provide us with a common ground, a basis of reality that we all can agree on. Subjective truths, however, remind us of our individuality, the unique lenses through which we view and interpret our experiences. As we navigate through life, we constantly encounter and interact with both these types of truths, shaping our understanding of ourselves and the world.
