ON POINT

I can tell you what you want to hear
I can tell you the truth
Or
I can tell you what you want to be the truth

Ultimately
You decide
Convince yourself
In your mind
In your heart
In your soul
What you believe

Ultimately
You decide
What you are willing
Indefinitely
To live with

    Well said, we all must direct and face our own truths.

  • Hopefully we direct them correctly!

    I also believe what it comes down, as you say, is to feel comfortable in one’s own skin. God understands this, and having given us a blueprint for success, He then allows one to find his or her own way. They can be tough lessons, but the only ones truly learned. Nobody sees the thing-in-itself anyway, seeing only the outward reflection of what we have already acquired (truth and falsehood) in the journey of consciousness. Great read, chef; I will think on this one a long time, understanding more each occasion.

  • Thank you! You speak the truth here! This is another of the choices God faces us with! I’m glad this one will keep you thinking!
