Seek not the truth... simply surrender your opinions. Truth will arrive in its own good time! |

Secondhanddreampoet, Nice little poem. I don't agree with it though. Bobby |

very philosophical. It is our opinion that blocked us to see the truth. I shall think about this!! Thank you for sharing, dear Bruce. |

I have to think about this one. I always enjoy a poem that makes me think. Ida |

If you should not seek truth, means all you want is to be lied too. I'd rather have truth in all its forms then one ounce of falsehood. Wisdom comes with truth, pride comes with lies |

Dear Z: << If you should not seek truth, means all you want is to be lied too. I'd rather have truth in all its forms then one ounce of falsehood. Wisdom comes with truth, pride comes with lies>> Perhaps what the poet means is that there may be more than one truth, or that the truth may not be immediately known to us. Sometimes those who believe they know "The Truth" may be mistaken. What is true often reveals itself in time. |

How could there be more then one truth? The truth is singular(1+1=2) no debating that. Wouldn't want to live in a world where I pick between truths |

But more importanly who really has the time to wait for truth to come, for my Bible says to "seek ye the truth" |

There may be only one truth but there have always been people who put there own spin on it and other people who won't accept "their spin" as truth. Ida |

Dear Bruce, your words about Truth are thought provoking. I agree with you, the Sublime Truth will reveal in its own time. Who can TRULY affirm to know the TRUTH? We think Truth is what we believe in, but then there are an unlimited number of truths ... “All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to discover them.” by Galileo Galilei ... in time we shall know! Perfect little wisdom gem. Margherita |
