Vernon Witmer Poet Narrative

Notes About The Poem

Source

All thought walks behind you. Whether you look at one or you look at all, you may say “this is me, too.” For if there is a place, you are there before it is conceived and if there is a thing, you are there to witness it’s birth. Although you may ascribe the creation of things that enter your life to others, the others to which you ascribe their birth are creations of your own. all things are extensions of yourself. Therefore when you view the stars and the galaxies of Heaven you may say: “This is me also.”
     It is for you alone to interpret the stimulation of your perceptions.
Nothing happens without you interpreting its meaning. All of the
controversy you encounter in your life is borne of your own self-doubt. 
Do not hesitate to decide in your favor even if your favor is in the
elevation of others. For your life lies in their being also and to
elevate one is to elevate all, for the source of all is in each.
