True or false

 There was a time when at an exam, a few lines of random topics were selected to be deciphered, if it was true or false.


Only those who had read the subjects well could pick if it was true, or false.

In an age of reality, with subjects being bombarded all around through the books, the billboards, editorials, on mini screen in the palm, larger screen on the wall, and still larger screen at a theater, getting to segregate between truth and false could be easy.

Mostly false is picked for the truth.

There is very little chance for the truth, to be noticed, no regalness, no glamour, no chance for a crowd, and knowledge about truth is a rarity, mostly hidden or in plain sight, but invisible.

Lessons for life offer no prizes, false claims give out packets of sweets, pictures, money, consolation prizes for others too, if they can understand the false as truth.

So how do we arrive at truths, be it science, art, person, subjective, any hints  ?

P. S.

This piece...... True or false?
