Sounds like the essence of growth. Confront the truth and transform. You make me think of a walk taken many years ago in the woods. There were more fireflies than I had ever seen before or since. Your words are like that light. I am intrigued by the different ways you approach your subject matter. Peace.

Amen and Amen Simone. I loved the summation" the truth will fix your broken heart, and feed your soul, and all that is found in the essence of each of us, and transcend us to our ultimate goal." This is the truth that kills the ego, and raises the soul. Smile! Sincere, Agape, Moses
