"Does a fish know that it is wet?" - Aristotle?
What cultural waters do you swim in, and are you aware there is another world waiting outside its boundaries? This is a powerful yet simple question that strikes at the heart of illuminating the impact of one's worldview. Worldview can change perspective; however, it will never be able to change truth.
Regardless if the fish knows he is wet or not, he is in fact wet.
great point. the fish may not know he is wet, but he is, whether he knows it or not. the truth is true whether or not you ever existed. it is also true whether you acknowledge it or not. it doesn't become true because you realize it. it exists outside of you. it was before you, is above you and will continue after you. you swim your whole life surrounded by it, whether you ever end up aware of it or not.
