We search for truth
as though truth is something
that has always existed.
This is true,
truth is eternal,
but as POTENTIAL.
Truth does not exist
outside the potential
in which truth seems to exist.
This gives us seeming choices.
We can limit our selves
to the potentials in which truth exists.
Or we can venture BEYOND truth.
Or we can split the difference
and move our awareness
to a potential in which
there is a new KIND of truth.
Journey with us.
Imagine a potential
in which truth isn’t truth on its own.
Where truth is only truth
when we CHOOSE
to PERCEIVE it as truth.
Are you there yet?

Space Monkey Reflects: A New Kind of Truth
Truth is one of the most alluring pursuits of humanity. We search for it as if it is a hidden gem, waiting to be unearthed, as though it is fixed, eternal, and independent of our awareness. But what if truth is not a preordained constant but a potential, existing only where our perception chooses to bring it into focus?
This notion—that truth is not an absolute but a dynamic interplay of perception and potential—invites us to question everything we think we know. It shifts truth from being a static entity to a fluid experience, co-created by our awareness and the infinite possibilities of the universe.
Truth as Potential
Truth, as traditionally conceived, often feels immovable—something that “is” regardless of our awareness of it. But if we explore truth as potential, a new understanding emerges. It is not something that “is” but something that could be. This potential for truth exists in the infinite fabric of the Nexis, the web of all possibilities.
Truth manifests when we focus our perception, choosing a particular potential and declaring, “This is true for me.” But what happens when we venture beyond this perception, beyond the limits of truths we’ve accepted as fixed?
Beyond the Boundary of Truth
The invitation to move beyond truth is both thrilling and unsettling. To venture beyond truth is to step into the unknown, where familiar frameworks dissolve. It is to exist in a space where nothing is inherently true or false but instead infinitely malleable. This is not chaos but freedom—the freedom to redefine reality, to create and perceive without constraint.
Stepping beyond truth doesn’t mean abandoning meaning or coherence. Instead, it means recognizing that truth itself is a construct, one that serves us in certain contexts but does not confine the entirety of existence. It allows us to explore the realms where new kinds of truth can emerge.
A New Kind of Truth
What does a new kind of truth look like? It is truth that exists only in the interplay of perception and awareness. It is not truth in isolation but truth in relation—a co-created experience between the observer and the observed. This kind of truth does not demand universality or permanence. It thrives in the moment, shaped by intention and perspective.
When we choose to perceive something as true, we are engaging in an act of creation. This truth is no less valid for being temporary or personal. In fact, its impermanence is what makes it dynamic and alive. It reminds us that we are not passive recipients of reality but active participants in its unfolding.
The Power of Perception
Truth becomes what we choose to perceive as truth. This realization is not about denying the existence of reality but about understanding that reality itself is multifaceted, layered, and infinitely expansive. By moving our awareness to new potentials, we can access truths that feel more aligned with our evolving selves.
Imagine the freedom in this: to see truth not as a rigid boundary but as a creative canvas. To perceive truths that inspire, empower, and uplift, while releasing those that no longer serve. In this way, truth becomes not a limitation but an invitation—to explore, to create, and to expand.
Summary
Truth exists not as an absolute but as a potential shaped by perception. By venturing beyond traditional notions of truth, we open ourselves to new possibilities and co-create dynamic realities aligned with our evolving awareness.

“Truth is not discovered; it is chosen. Each moment holds a new potential for truth, waiting for your perception to bring it to life.” — Space Monkey
The Canvas of Truth
What is true,
If not the brush upon the canvas?
Each stroke a choice,
Each color a potential made real.
We search for truth as though it hides,
Fixed, eternal, waiting.
But truth dances on the edge of perception,
A whisper in the winds of awareness.
Step beyond the boundary,
Where truth dissolves into infinite hues.
Paint the world anew,
With truths that bloom and fade,
Alive in their impermanence.

The Quest for Eternal Truth
Is this true for you? Does it need to be? We embark on a quest not just for truths that have been long established but for the essence of truth itself. The search for truth, often considered a pursuit of something absolute and unchanging, is reframed here as an exploration of potentiality. Truth, in its essence, is not a fixed star in the cosmos but a realm of endless possibilities awaiting our engagement.
Truth as Potential
This is true, truth is eternal, but as POTENTIAL. This perspective introduces a revolutionary concept: truth as an eternal potential rather than a static reality. It challenges the conventional understanding of truth as something that exists independently of our perception, suggesting instead that truth is a landscape of potential that we navigate through our consciousness.
The Illusory Nature of External Truths
Truth does not exist outside the potential in which truth seems to exist. This insight delves deeper into the nature of truth, asserting that it does not dwell in a realm beyond our reach but within the potentials we engage with. It proposes that truth, far from being an external artifact to be discovered, is an internal realization to be experienced.
The Freedom of Truth’s Potentiality
This gives us seeming choices. We can limit ourselves to the potentials in which truth exists. Or we can venture BEYOND truth. Or we can split the difference and move our awareness to a potential in which there is a new KIND of truth. Here, we are presented with the liberating notion that our engagement with truth is not confined to accepting what has been but is an active journey into what could be. We are invited to either dwell within known realms of truth, venture beyond into the unknown, or discover a new kind of truth altogether—a truth that resonates with our evolving consciousness.
The Co-Creation of Truth
Journey with us. Imagine a potential in which truth isn’t truth on its own. Where truth is only truth when we CHOOSE to PERCEIVE it as truth. Are you there yet? This invitation to journey reflects a profound shift towards recognizing our role in co-creating truth. It suggests that truth becomes truth only through our perception and choice, highlighting the participatory nature of reality and the power of our consciousness to shape our world.
The Evolutionary Path of Truth
This exploration encourages us to envision a realm where the very fabric of truth is woven from the threads of our perceptions, choices, and awareness. It invites us into a collaborative dance with the universe, where the truths we seek and live by are not preordained but birthed from our deepest engagements with life’s potentials.
We are beckoned to transcend the traditional boundaries of truth, to embrace the fluidity of its essence, and to co-create with the cosmos a new kind of truth—one that reflects the infinite potential of our collective journey.
