While floating down the River of Life,
Do not allow yourself to be forever drawn
Along with the current of popular thought,
For it is not necessarily Truth.
Occasionally search the eddies and backwaters,
Sifting through the mud, sand and stone.
Rest often, alone, on its sun drenched bank,
Viewing the turbulent flow as one removed.
Constantly search for Truth within yourself;
Affirm it,
Question it,
Reaffirm it,
Requestion it,
Feel it and Know.
