What is truth after all? Recently this battle has been fought on many fronts, the hunting grounds of the spin masters and politically inclined.

But here in the wilderness, the truth is far simpler, and in these hunting grounds, it needs to be.

When the dust has settled, those that dwell here know full well that there are only two real truths that matter.

Whether you are dead, or whether you survive.

These simple truths dictate life on the savanna, it is the 1 and 0 of nature, and the logic is irrefutable.

Because when the dust has, indeed, settled, it could be the terracotta red if the Mara, or the crimson sheen of blood spilled.

And when life is that binary, there’s not much room for alternatives.

About me: Citizen of the World. I love writing, photography, travelling, reading, learning and growing. Medium is another journey in my life, let’s see what sights we may see.
