I thought I would write a little poem about the most important word to me today.
What is truth to you?
Truth is something that is personal and only you know what your own is.
Truth is something that sometimes hurts very badly but it is always for the best.
Truth is based on a belief that may or may not serve you.
Truth can be one of the hardest things to speak forth, yet when spoken feels like a winter coat being taken off in summer.
Truth lies in the depth of our being, but not necessarily always being in depth.
If Truth is hiding in the shadows, some light will illuminate that darkness.
Truth allows a space of openness once it’s realized.
Truth is something so coveted by the individual because once understood, that is all there is.
Truth is not always what we think, but usually how we feel.
Truth acts as our personal guide ushering us to ourselves…

Lovely Poem, and what an unexpected pleasant surprise!
Perfect Timing…I needed to hear that today!
It took a few times reading this for it to actually start sinking in. But now that it has, though I’m still searching for the truth within me, your writing has infused me with some hope and excitement on my journey to discover it.
One thing I got to realize about truth is that it is plural. One of the causes for feelings of anguish is not realizing that. My truth may not be your truth and vice versa; it may very well be the one you need and works with you and still not work for me. That’s why growing is a personal quest.
Enjoy them!
Truths are out there!
