"THERE DO EXIST ENQUIRING MINDS, which long for the truth of the heart, seek it, strive to solve the problems set by life, try to penetrate to the essence of things and phenomena and to penetrate into themselves. If a man reasons and thinks soundly, no matter which path he follows in solving these problems, he must inevitably arrive back at himself, and begin with the solution of the problem of what he is himself and what his place is in the world around him. For without this knowledge, he will have no focal point in his search. Socrates’ words, “Know thyself” remain for all those who seek true knowledge and being."

Where Is My Friend?

Snagged and snagged again
On this and that
Things of consequence
and things of no consequence

She is lost
Wandering
Unknowing

Where is my friend?
She is gone too long;
I miss her company.

I sit quietly
Re membering

Ahh, here she is.

She slips in
Bringing the sun.

Peace,
