storyteller

Post by Doreen Peri » April 27th, 2015, 3:13 am

The poet is a storyteller, a truth seeker but
a speaker who knows not whether his
spiritual guesses and his word mix endeavors
even come close to the wisdom he knows.
The poet shows all sides of the issues from
the point of view of a brahman, twisting tales
like a shaman until every angle is revealed.
Truth is not sealed in an encasement without
variations. No, truth is alive and well, unable
to be quelled, always based on our relation
to it, perspective being the most viable value.
This is why your truth is different than mine
or hers or his. Truth cannot lie. It can only be
exactly what it is.

Truth does have its variations while at the same time being exactly what it is. Perspective plays a huge part in it too. Good and insightful.

truth is a glimmer in the eye of the beholder.....i'm glad we have a place here to share our collective truth....our observations.....it allows us to morph at times in directions we never imagined
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading
