Do you crave the truth? Sure you do... so do I... so does he... so does she... but none of us are any closer to the
truth than a sinking ship is to land.
We float on waves of lies... ever changing... shifting beneath us... keeping us "safe" above the words flowing
around us. We see that harbor, so far away, but closer than we think.. just over the horizon... We aim for it,
casting off our lines... letting the sails out... full mast... Sometimes we make it... sometimes we don't. Usually we're
doing nothing but taking a temporary reprieve... setting out to sail that sea of lies a week, a day, perhaps a mere
hour later...
However, it need not be so. Sometimes we're forced to see the truth. Sometimes we fight for it... sometimes we
fight against it... It doesn't really matter. The truth is all that matters. It's never easy to get to the bottom of things.
Like the sinking ship... we make the greatest sacrifice to get to the real truth. Like that ship settling on the bottom,
we finally reach our final rest when we find the real truth. That land that we felt so safe on extends so far beneath
the waves... what we thought was miles away is just beneath lies... but we're afraid to make the sacrifice...
We're no closer than a sinking ship to land... but sometimes that's close enough. |
