1 AM in my bed. I opened my phone, went to Facebook, a regular habit before bed time. My finger led me to an account that support the President Joko Widodo, Ni Luh Djelantik. I read some of the status and some comments below, majority supports her, few disagree. Her account led me to another account, Jonru. He is famous with his post that 'some people believe' spreading hatred and contra the government. I did the same on Jonru account, checked the comments section and found what exactly I saw on Ni Luh Djelantik's account. My head was full of thoughts, thinking which one right is right. Headache hit me, I decided to close my Facebook.
Now I am having a trouble in my head. Reading those comments from two different account that have different point of view on seeing things, torture my mind. I am starting to believe (again) that there is no absolute truth in life. We can certain in something, but that doesn't guarantee that other can see the sama value on it.
The majority can create a tyranny majority. We can't conclude the truth by the number of people that believe in it. For me truth is not an absolute thing. Because truth is about believing something. When you believe something, your mind telling you what you believe is right.
You can prove that you are right but you can't change (easily) people's perception that believe that is wrong. Because when we do force our truth to be general, to be accepted by everyone, that's where a conflict possibly appear.
Enough for today. I am going to sleep. 1.41 AM.
