seeing ourselves
for who we truly are
without glorifying
nor judging
is a lifelong
exercise
to be practiced
every day
opinions
birds are confirming
that spring is knocking on the door
reminding
how having strong opinions
does not necessarily mean
being able to stand upright
in one’s own belief
radiant
it is a waste of time
for someone who was born
radiant
trying to shine
dishonesty
dishonesty
does not necessarily mean
telling a lie
but it does create a considerable base
for profound misunderstandings
and unreliability
perseverance
facing reality
is not always the most gratifying experience
at first glance
but it might be
a liberating experience
when practiced regularly
and with perseverance
shortcut
measuring the righteousness of others
is indeed
the shortest way
to condemn ourselves
guilt
working through
massive layers of guilt
can indeed be considered
a waste of time
in times of war
but if the source of the war
is to be found
in the very same layers
of guilt
there might be a certain
sense to it
hypocrisy
defining the nuance between
denying oneself and
self-denial
might be an interesting exercise
to practice
until the nuance is clear as
a cutting edge
separating hypocrisy
from generosity
ruin
there are times
where it is better
to wait another moment
just to see
what was already there
before a whole world is being
ruined
wise
learning to be wise
can be a long journey
learning to reach the wisdom
we already carry within
as well
