When a man speaks the truth in the spirit of truth, his eye is as clear as the heavens. When he has base ends, and speaks falsely, the eye is muddy and sometimes asquint.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
(Japanese glass floats / Julie Cook / 2015)
Who to believe?
What to believe?
Pundit, cognoscente, critic. . .
Journalists have an angle
Politicians have a slant
Lawmakers have an advantage
Small truths, half truths, no truth
Cover ups, cover overs, cover it all
Integrity or corruption
Under the table or over the table
Secrets, closets, skeletons
Where is the. . .
Morality
Virtue
Honor
Is it a. . .
Mistake or pattern
Is it either. . .
Erroneous or sound
Who do you trust?
Everyone?
No one?
Do you dare go it alone?
Blind eye to that,
but hell to pay for this.
Waffling?
Balancing?
For how long?
No to having, as well as, eating cake
Either
Or
Too easy to opt out of decision making
No to choosing
No to deciding
Neither, either, or perhaps both
Sadly not a viable or lasting option
Do we no longer care?
Are we too jaded?
Have we all merely become lemmings?
Follow me?
Follow you?
Follow who?
Talking points
Turning points
Point of no return
Nothing matters but what is mine
My world
My corner
My way
or
no way
Wake up and smell the coffee
the roses
the truth
Topsy turvy
Spiraling
Spinning
Sliding
Time to get off
time to get on
Time to quit
Do not settle
You are better than this
WE are better than this
Life is better than this
Only one way
not my way
not your way
not their way
only His way. . .
Jesus answered,
“I am the way
and the truth
and the life.
No one comes to the Father
except through me.
John 14:6
