What Is True

A lot of people confused the thoughts between thinking that they know something is true and if that thought is actually true. I think that the way for people to actually know if something is really true or not that they have to actually experience it in person themselves.  If they actually witness the thing that they believed to be true happening then they will actually know that the thought they thought was true is actually true.  I think that more people need to realize this and it would help a lot of things out.  If people realized this then there would not be as much false information going around.  People believe the word from another person too easily and this actually causes problems.  They think just because they heard it was true from somebody that it really is true.  But if people would actually not take peoples words so seriously and learn from their own experiences it would make it better.

        Something that I believe that I know and is true is that you need to follow and obey laws or you will face consequences.  I know that this is true in many ways.  First off, you see it in everyday life how people obey or disobey laws and the consequences they may have to face.  It’s all over television shows and movies as well.  I’ve also learned from experience.  I disobeyed the law before while I was driving by not obeying the speed limit and sure enough I had to pay the consequences.  That is just a minor example since all I really received was a traffic citation but there is a lot more serious laws that you will definitely have to face consequences for.  A negative thing with my argument is that not everyone gets caught and has to pay consequences for breaking the law but even those people who get away with crimes still know themselves that if they would get caught breaking the law that they will have to pay consequences.  So they even know for a fact that breaking the law will make you have to pay consequences.  Its kind of more of a common sense kind of thing that actually it having to be known as a fact.  

        In conclusion regarding my previous two paragraphs I think that people should base the facts that they think they know on stuff that they have actually experienced in their lives.  That way they won’t think they know something as a fact but they will actually know something as a fact.  I think that experiencing breaking the law and having to face consequences was a good example for this because a lot of people including myself have found this out from experience.  It’s kind of unfortunate to learn this as a fact from experience but it has happened to a lot of us.
