The Truth of Life...

The Truth of Life

To he who lives by mortal soul,
I beg, take breath and gain control
of backward thinking – hardened ways;
and untamed viewpoints set ablaze.

Oh, how we sink within ourselves;
each in our way, we slowly delve
into a mindset – cast in stone.
No valid effort to atone...

In ancient times we sought to know
more of the world. What made life grow?
We saw disasters, shocking sights;
all lacking knowledge time invites.

We told our stories – wrote our laws;
(though some were skewed with harmful flaws.)
Most tried their best to recount facts;
while others staged suspicious acts.

By our accounting we’ve observed
what history has thus preserved
for generations yet to come; 
but not by expert rule of thumb.

Please pause and think and understand
that ancient man could not expand
on what he saw through bygone eyes;
some writings written – thus, surmise.

And now, in present state and mind
with such amazing tools to find;
we still persist to clash and brawl
within perspective facts recalled.

Some principles, by way of terms;
imprinted on our souls - confirms
we're lacking vision. Sight to see
just who it is we’re taught to be!

Some say that faith and facts can’t blend.
Yet science, faith’s immortal friend
confirms our past – uncovers truth;
and answers questions sought since youth.

Each of our cultures builds a shrine 
to miracles of The Divine. 
While also in each culture sits
a way of thought that never quits.

God’s energy fills all that is.
In His dimension – we are His
to be our best at what we do –
to think things out… to work things through.

And so, 'tis you I call upon
to shed your doubts – instead be drawn 
to see God’s light within all hearts –
discover answers He imparts.

All cultures have their hidden maps;
with countless ways to fill the gaps.
Though, in the end - there’s but one theme –
Allowing Truth To Reign Supreme…
