If you want to find out about someone’s character you ask them how do they gauge truth, or how do they know something is true?

Most will say because so and so said so, some variant of outsourced knowledge. Some "Religion." Some "Scientist." Some "Dr." Some "Guru." Some "Parent." Some "Mother." Some "Father." Some "Thought triggered by someone else." Some “Theory.”

Rare people will say they don’t know, they’re a bit more evolved because they see the conditioning. They see the confusion.

The rarer people will say they know because they’ve observed for themselves, not blindly, but with purity enough to observe correctly.

Heaven knows of the wishes you make in the dark.
In fact, the light is a bit jealous.
Glimpses of tiny paradoxes,
Peaking through pin like openings.
Ones the naked eye may mistake for mirages.
The darkness is so vast,
it is almost as if you are visually impaired and...
Better days unimaginable.
Every twinge or hope promises solar flares,
But instead, it presents sparks,
Quickly extinguished by,
Ominous woes and epic eruptions in the balance.
It is absence,
Humming,
Surfing on the air,
So you only manage to overhear scraps of,
The only means of your redemption
But cannot actually grab onto to it.
How are you making it through the day,
When you hate every bit of it?
Shadows laugh at your despair but I beg you,
Stop feeding the darkness because it will only grow thicker.

Heaven knows the wishes you make in the dark,
But it begs you to stop searching..
Stop searching for the light.
You will never find it in front of you.
Because it is inside of you.
But you are too preoccupied in your own misfortunes
To see just how equipped you are to handle the silence.
Because you have refused to listen to anything but sorrow.
Too blind to see that your own heart,
Radiates like a lantern.
To worried to see that you don't need fire,
You are the flame.
Darkness is carved like caverns to make you lose your mind.
Don't rob yourself the opportunity to be freed of night.
Force yourself to see beauty and Beauty will cling to you,
Overshadowing all else,
And light will illuminate.
no matter what you do.....
Know that,
Sunrise is only a breath away.
Breathe will you?
Let it fill every nook,
Let it  occupy every space of every cranny..
Let enlighten you..
Let it lift you up.
Let it set you free.
Let it keep you calm.
Let it motivate you to smile.
Smile your troubles away,
..... Will you?

Because it will be the most beautiful ...
You are beautiful.

To see without those darkened eyes, fresh
Believing in yourself, without strings
Look at the seas and find yourself
Building, creating, and doing
This is life

You can do what you believe
Not stay back, barely holding on
Feel the wind fill your sails
The fresh salt spray on your face
Taste that freedom on your lips

The allure of the sea, of flying
To go where you wish, defy the winds
All your needs met in a moment
The adrenalin of the wind in your face
Tossing your hair, chance belief

Being who you are
No one can say you are not
Either a hunter of men
Or the artist of beauty
Be that, that no one steal away

Theirs are not the wind, never to fly
To taste the sea, sail beyond the horizon
Tread not lightly on this earth
Rely on yourself, unlike minded
Laugh, with abandon, they'll see you mad

And you laugh that much harder
You'll step forth over that cliff
They shy back from
Open your wings
Glide

happy peacemakers, piece us back together,
unity is a precious gem, worth all the tea in China
happy peacemakers, keep on believing,
we need you now, more than ever
