True Dat

Every day is different no matter what I do. A multitude of variables keep me from the true. A flat tire, a loose wire, a new friend suddenly appears, and a favored pen disappears, an argument over nothing, and the postman brings you something, the lawn mower won't start, and, your child reveals her heart. Trivial to substantial, a randomness in all. What is the deeper hidden truth that thwarts the things I do. To not accept this deeper truth is my fatal flaw. The stubborn battle to impose my truth, keeps me from the true.

What an amazing inspirational write, Amusing yet so true. So many things to keep us from being and seeing the truth of who we are and what we want to do.
