Reality with a big R is what Is, regardless of one’s opinion
or what one can perceive with their finite senses.
reality with a little r is all the ways we say it is, for all our reasons,
even when we’re hypocrites.
Truth, like Reality, comes in Big and little versions.
There are big T Truths, which are Realities that are true for everyone, without exception, and are impersonal.
There are little t truths which are realities that are true for you,
but are not true for the rest of us, because they’re personal.
No amount of little ts and little rs can ever be greater
than Our shared Truth and Reality.
To take Civilization to the next level, Humanity must recognize
how the personal life (You) exists within the greater life (Us)
and that the governance of a global civilized people
must take place not at the little t level but
foremostly through big T Truths.
To the degree that human life is discordant and dis-eased,
to that degree do little ts punk big Ts. To that degree do
we have closed what should be open and have made
chronically imbalanced what must be balanced.
Big T Truths and little t truths are real for each of us,
but only in Big T Truths do We all connect.
