Truth is stranger than fiction.

“Truth is stranger than fiction”…. The first time I heard this phrase was in the Hindi cinema – “Aankhe”. I little believed this at the first hearing. As life moves on it has thought that all the conventional knowledge that we gain in every day life has not let us imagine every possibility. I think it biases us so that we don’t get going with an open mind, expect and accept all things that can come out.

The knowledge that we gain in sciences today doesn’t explain every thing that we see. Every time we try to explain the off mark understanding will put us in paradoxes. Solving this paradox gives us a different but a better understanding of life. We have got to be open-minded.

We expect something based on our previous experience and understanding, but we have some thing to learn when we get some thing that we have not expected. The unexpected may be a good one or a bad one; but it’s actually the lack of optimism or the prejudiced thought that stopped us expecting stating it as fictions.
