Neither and both. And I think it's the wrong question, anyway.
I've long held that the things about human nature -- especially my own nature -- that I am the most certain of are the very things I need to question.
That the righteous bastard in my head that tells me when I am right and when others are wrong has his head firmly up my ass and it doesn't feel all that good.
I've heard it said that charity begins at home. That may or may not be a valuable saying. But I think "question authority" is very valuable. Especially when applied to that internal generator of personal reality.
If there is nothing right nor wrong in the world, I must examine any area of life in which I am sure I know how it is, how it should be, and what we must do now.
What makes something important or unimportant to us? It is only the meaning we give it.
Meanings come and meanings go. What meaning do I want to create that gives my life pizazz?
