Truth

Truth is something we all hope to find, think we know, and love to share. But one thing I've learned is that it's different for every single person. I do believe some greater truths overlap between all of us, but on the whole, it's nearly impossible to convince another person of your own personal truth. We've all been there, trying to help out a friend or family member---spelling it out as clearly as we can. Yet it seems it makes no difference. We may exhaust ourselves and blame ourselves for their fumble of what we see clearly as the truth, but in the end the responsibility of the epitome rests on them. We can guide each other and offer personal incite, but in the end, we each must choose what we will believe, what we will reject, what we will hold onto, and what we will forfeit. It's a personal journey, and it shouldn't be rushed.

But the folly of all follies is to leave it undone. To simply float through life without a pursuit of purpose or understanding, is to commit spiritual, even humane, suicide. It's forfeiting the knowledge of good and evil and being swallowed by the serpent. It's silently standing by injustice. It's invalidating your life. So, in all you do, seek your personal truth, find the you in you.
