The Truth!

 Really, what is it?

Is it a sunrise or a sunset?

Isn't this a common picture? So common yet, you are unsure whether it is a sunset or a sunrise. Let us say, even when we pick a side, the probability of being right is fifty percent. 

Now think about all the times we have argued knowing only fifty percent or less truth. Humans tend to have biases, it is natural. But when we use our assumptions to form prejudice, it gets risky.

So what happens? Being the generation who has internet access at tip of the finger and technology under feet, it takes us no time to share these biased opinions on social media. 

When these biased opinions instead of truth make way to different platforms, it creates a panic. Which is used against us by people who are smart. They are smart to ignite the fire and wear fire resistant bodysuits. On the other hand we are the people who are targeted and we are the ones exploited. 

So, shall we not share or express our opinions? We have the right to express ourselves I know. Right and duty are two sides of a coin. It is our duty to verify the news before making a statement, taking a stand, having prejudices and most importantly reacting to it. 

Believe it or not everyone of us has influence may it be on a four year old kid or forty year old adult. Let us use the accessibility of internet to find the truth and make everyone around us aware. let us try?

 It is a sunrise picture, or is it?

"Truth could be ugly but it brings awareness."
