Contrarian Intuition
To Live, one must die;
To Control, one must yield;
To Trust, one must not ask why;
To Love, one must drop the shield.
Wisdom needs pain;
Joy needs receptivity;
Stability needs strain;
Confidence, needs humility.
True Wealth, is given to the simplistic;
True Freedom, is granted to the restrained;
True Health is given to the holistic;
True Knowledge is granted to the trained.
True happiness...True happiness?
True happiness remains unexplained...
