“True light is that which radiates from within a man. It reveals the secrets of the soul to the soul and lets it rejoice in life, singing in the name of the Spirit. Truth is like the stars, which cannot be seen except beyond the darkness of night. Truth is like all beautiful things in existence: it does not reveal its beauties save to those who have felt the weight of falsehood. Truth is a hidden feeling which teaches us to rejoice in our days and wish to all mankind that rejoicing.”
~ Kahlil Gibran, Spirits Rebellious
What we often consider our truths are merely created by our beliefs. But then what happens when we change our beliefs?
Sometimes we don’t know what’s right until we’ve experienced what’s wrong, just as we need the contrast of the dark to see the light.
Be open to changing your beliefs, my friend. This is growth; this is the natural progression of life.
Just know that there is only one Truth that will never change. You are more than your body. Your essence was you before you were born and who you will be after you die. Nothing and no one can ever in any way destroy, harm or take that away from you. This is the Truth that you must always honor above all else.
