TRUTH
Rose seeds become the rose, is truth;
A constant for all living things.
And when we hear a song bird's song
It's what that song bird always sings.
Don't search in 'bones' of men long dead.
Their truths invented are all dust.
The truth that God wrote in our genes
Can be the only truth we trust.
We must "reach out..."; become our 'rose'.
Our being less is falsity.
The truth we search for we will find,
Becoming what we each can be.

Every line adds to the clarity that grows in time of ourselves and our individual existences, the last line summing up all. The truth that God wrote in our genes can be the only truth we trust.
Classic music.

"Truth" is a presentation of facts. Doug.E.barr
The truth lays within yourself and your soul. Not in what you are told or you have learnt but in how you feel.

Indeed. The truth is within us. Doug.E.Barr
The truth is in every individual,living, breathing unique one of us.Do you not think we all get it eventually at some point in our lives? Believing that I can not understand why so few choice to acknowledge it and embrace it. Maybe too many get it too late.What an amazing,incredable world I can see in my mind.Sadly that is the only place it will ever exist.Maybe not the only place,its in your mind too.Nice to not be alone.

No. I think too few people have gotten "it", not even "eventually". My sense is that if most of us don't soon "get it", it will be too late. Doug.E.Barr
