Know Thyself

Know thyself Confusing – maybe? The reality - we are all we’ll ever have Personal awareness is of utmost importance - indeed Evolutionary dialectical battle Vociferous the subconscious mind Perpetual synaptic reactions Unexamined – troubled - unkind Awareness precedes Transformation Transformation – Holy Grail - life’s key Rise above the ancient biological chatter Peace of mind – pure ecstasy Discard the externals Internals – it’s all we can change Situations will certainly challenge Challenge self by knowing – knowing self minimizes the pain Nothing in life really changes Therefore we are challenged each day Knowing thyself is imperative Awareness of self enlightens our way
