Truth is subject to so many different aggressions on its existence. Its true likeness is made palatable by those attempting to taste it by their buds; each flavors only the shadow of what once was, but never can we distort the purity of what truth really is; that is our misgiving. It is there, in its own nakedness, without shame, regret, or pride; it simply is, but never does it remain; only in our minds is this possible. Pure truth lives.
Why should this matter, how we see truth, then? The answer to this depends on what moves you. It rests solely in the richness of your spirit. Do we honor life in such a way as to respect its presence before us?
Will we put aside our bread and circuses, to realize what will not be there forever, for each of us?
Truth has many faces because of what we have made it, not because of what it is or has ever been; know this. It is because we have many faces that pure truth has been distorted. Therefore, it is really ourselves that we flavor, in order to be more tasteful, to others, and to ourselves; not knowing that our own purity is the most desirable, the most inviting, the most beautiful.
Do not be afraid to see life the way it is; nor should you be concerned about the way life will see you when you are sincere. The mystery of what is god lives in each of us; there is nothing more wonderful to behold. Find god in yourself and let go of everything that isn't; all else will be clear thereafter.
This is the purest truth, to be yourself, and to be true.
