Understand Your Understanding

UNDERSTAND YOUR UNDERSTANDING 
Do your understand anything – yes anything 
Is your understanding based on someone else’s understanding
Maybe you perceive life through someone else’s perceptive
Or maybe you understand life based on your shallow understanding
Honestly is your understanding justifiable, verifiable and visible 
How do you understand life, love and light – true understanding?
Check and examine your understanding and orientation of your understanding

This is my definition of understanding 
It is not the shallowness of just knowing something but to stand on it
It is UNDER-STAND, meaning what you are standing on, yes under
How firm is your foundation of understanding, is it as the ROCK
I know you have been living on people’s philosophies and theories
It is time to get out of the shadows, find the true source of understanding
Check and examine your understanding and orientation of your understanding

Concepts, theories and philosophies are someone’s thoughts –understanding
Book of life says DO NOT LEAN ON YOUR OWN UNDERSTANDING – LIFE
Go back to the author of life, dig for the roots on understanding – wisdom
Shallowness in understanding anything starts in lack of understanding life’s purpose
All your understand about life is from your parents, pastors, professors and presidents
So you are the imitation and clone of someone’s ideas, concepts and philosophies
Check and examine your understanding and orientation of your understanding

People’s opinions can limit you
People’s philosophies can damage you
People’s understanding on who you be and what you should do can paralyze you
Check and examine your understanding and orientation of your understanding
Check in the life manual and consult the AUTHOR about understanding
