Peaks & Planes

When we are climbing one peak
We should never delude ourselves
That once we have reached that peak
Easy planes will lie ahead;
Beyond every peak lie peaks and peaks
That we will need to climb and climb.

Complexity & Simplicity

Turmoil comes of complexity
As joy comes of simplicity
As anguish comes of guilt
As thrills come of wealth
As happiness comes of acceptance.

Trust & Trustworthy

To trust everyone is foolish
To trust no one is foolish and cruel
To trust only the trustworthy is impossible
Because one can never know who they really are
Until they have been repeatedly tested with one’s trust.

Bureaucracy & Enlightenment

Enlightenment is always
Inversely proportional to bureaucracy;
When bureaucracy increases in complexity
Enlightenment and joie de vivre decline.

Mistakes & Discoveries

More discoveries have been made
Through unintentional mistakes
Than through dedicated searches.

Humility & Show

False humility
Is what we show
And real humility
Is what we feel.

Worth & Self

Most of us derive our self worth
From what other people think of us
Instead of what we think of ourselves.
