– I hold my opinion loosely –
loosely in my hands and wait –
wait and watch for the truth –
the truth to filter through my fingers and fall –
fall to the ground,
where it can be kicked up and stirred –
stirred to settle; to settle into a foundation –
a foundation worthy to be built upon.
But
just as I begin to dream –
to dream of a grand building,
I see a crack –
a crack in the foundation.
I fall to my knees –
not in despair, but hope!
I look into the crack;
it takes time for my eyes to adjust to the new perspective…
and I see.
I see a vastness of particles –
particles of truth.
I focus all of who I am on just one particle –
knowing, with my new eyes; knowing – that this particle of truth,
is but a tiny aspect of the whole –
a whole far greater than my comprehension.
Such is why,
