Patterns of Truth

Truth is multi-faceted, one stubborn and unyielding perspective can scarcely perceive it.

Flexibility, the way of water so espoused by the Tao Te Ching, seems more appropriate. The branches that bend and sway in the breeze are not the ones that get knocked off. Through bending, they not only survive, they also survive intact.

To do so is to remain in tune with the flow of ever-changing reality.

This is why the material on this blog seems to vary so much, reflecting the cycles of my mind. What may seem to be contradictions may more likely be attempts to grasp a subtle truth that nay-swaying approaches may altogether miss- may fail to even perceive. Such is the aim,

The ever-inwards spiral,

Of those that seek understanding to balance their faith.
