We have found the ingredient
not to tell us our Truths are lies
but to show how expedients
how shortcut grabs at certainty
break mind and heart from the kind resolve
that lets all our Truths live through us all.

No one’s worldview means anything to anyone except to the degree that worldview helps them to feel/think/act aware, clear, honest, accurate, competent, compassionate, loving-kind and joyfully-together.

But none of those concepts mean anything to anyone except insofar as they are illuminated by a Love that is not just “a nice idea” or “one way of looking at things”, but that is a spiritual Reality, and that can thus serve as a reliable guide in our inner quest to discover what is really going on, what really matters / what the proper use of our love really is, and how to fit ourselves into what is really going on so as to move towards what’s truly better and away from what’s truly worse.

And so we see that no one’s worldview makes any sense to anyone except insofar as that worldview helps one abide by the universal values (aware … joyfully-together) and center one’s feeling/thinking/acting around a Love that shines through all things (including each conscious moment, hence our “in”) and that Knows that and in what way it is True to say, “We are all in this together.”

But the Truth is not our ideas and feelings about the Truth! The Truth is wider and deeper than our ideas and feelings. And so wisdom, goodness, holiness, and et cetera: these goods are not endpoints or victories, but gentle caring constant effort to better and better love ourselves, everyone else, and the boundless Love that binds us all.

And with this potion in our flask, we save ourselves and everyone else.
