Matter of Perception

Isn't searching answer,
The way to spiritual journey?
Isn't religion basic goal
Is to bring peace to mind?

But what's God's voice?
Isn't it some consciences
That help me define what's right,
So when we do bad things,
Remorse will play his role
As a disciplinarian

Now when I think of
Life without guilt,
My mind goes wild.

Guilt is such a paradox.
It could train caution,
It could destroy hopes,
It could made excuses.

The bottom line is preception.

But how do we change preception?
How can I judge from this fantasy
That I am not deceiving myself?

Black and white are only 50%
Of the world portrait.
Another 50% are in between,
The spectrum of light!

Should we ponder what's told?
How else a baby know
What's truth other from her parents?
Yet what would be the growth
Of a life without questioning?

And which source of news is reliable?
Who doesn't use propaganda?
Yet there are some good
Insight from thoughtful producer.

Peers are from kindred hearted,
Yet human errors play joke with us.
Still yet some carry a smile their face,
Yet in their hands
There might be a rabbit,
There might be a snake.

So tell me what's truth
Why people care about next life,
When they couldn't fix
Problems in this life?
