Simple answer, sorefingers, is yes! Complicated answer is sometimes...

Look to when you were back at Primary school and all the crap they used to tell you was the truth then. We belived them because they were adults and figures in authority. Then we grew up into angry young people and began to doubt the validity of anything that anyone had ever told us. Then we get to mid life and we began to doubt what we once knew ourselves! Heaven only knows what I have in store when I am older still...;-)

In a fit of philosophy I once followed this train of thought. I still don't know where it is leading;-)

When I was young I was told that rain was angels crying. I knew the truth but wondered why the angels wept.

Then as I grew older I saw rain for what it was. I knew the truth for there were no angels.

Now I am grown I see tears in the rain once more. I know the truth. Because I know why the angels cry...

*Shiver* Blimey! Don't know what came over me then. Perhaps it is the memories of the day?
