False Truths

Feeling much better today, thanks. I got an okay night's sleep and woke up dehydrated but I definitely feel like I have improved since yesterday. For instance, this morning I woke up not worried, and I felt like practicing my viola. Now back to the title of this blog: False Truths. What exactly is a false truth? Other than being an oxymoron, False Truths are sometimes a generalization or opinon, like the common thought that the Violin is the best instrument. This is a false truth because all though the violin is a very nice and well known instrument, it may not be the best. I certainly don't think that it is, but some people do. Maybe I am not explaining this very well(?). Oh well. Something else:
A few years ago, when I was quite young, a woman at church took me and my sister into the church hall after mass and pointed up at the stained glass windows. She told us that when you see beams of light coming through that angels were watching.
Hmm. No, this is not true. But yet, it is. Angels always watch, but they do not come through stained glass windows,
Also, when people say that when you see a cloud(rosin) come off of an instrument, it means that it is magic.
But all music is magic! And the cloud is just rosin.
