Is their validity in everyone's own truth? As long as it aligns with the individuals belief and value system and doesn't encroach on the wellbeing of another? Or is there always a clearly defined right and wrong?

Compare and contrast.

I’m not 100% not sure what you mean.

But I’ll answer anyway because that’s what I do lol

I like to stay in the grey area

Nothing is right or wrong, thinking makes it so..

But what you feel truly defines your truth so then you can feel what is right and wrong.

But your feelings are a result of your conditioning, which is brought on by environment and cultural factors.

This is why I live in the grey area and its important for me to expose myself to different ways of thinking so I can develop my feels towards certain situation.

Kind of like the analogy of the fly caught in the spiders web, what is chaos to the fly is normal to the spider.

When you release a ball from your hand, does it fall to the ground, or fly off in a random direction?

Does 2+2=4 or some other number?

Does the sun rise in the East?

If you put your hand in a fire, will you get burned?

good thought provoking question

I believe there are definite truths such as the above - what is real according to the world as we know it is definite truth
