I met with my former academic adviser a couple weeks ago to discuss art and how to make a living. One thing he said to me, was that no issue is black and white, that multiple perspectives do not negate the validity of truth. I'm comforted by that notion, but reluctant to embrace it. I don't believe in people making up their own truth, and I think this idea is kind of a gateway drug that will lead a person in that direction. I believe that the validity of any perspective is dependent solely on its adherence to and pursuit of absolute truth. I feel like listening to Ground Up will help me resolve this mental battle I'm waging.
