The butterfly of truth lands on the lips of those who speak with integrity as character rises to the occasion. Though truth may be locked away, it shines like a diamond on display. Ida |

Yo dear Ida, I don't understand this one at all. I saw the movie once, and kinda forgot it. Love Bobby |

Yes, yes, the truth is so important. It can't stay hidden because it's the truth......That word integrity is an important quality all should display. The world would be a much better place. Sometimes one has to work on the good things in life and develop them fully. Eric |

Truth is indeed like a brilliant diamond on display, Ida, and when it shines we must not resist and be blinded by it; that's when the darkness reigns, and we fail to see things the way they are, especially ourselves. art |

Great work Ida, I love the imagery. Never sigh for a better world, it's already composed, played and told. |
