find it for yourself

We all have to find our path for ourselves.

No matter to which religion we belong, we need to experience the truths of their teachings within our own life to truly have faith.

Many religious books or teachers will tell you things that may ring true within you, but they do not take hold until we have our own encounter with their meaning.

No matter how many people tell you that honey is sweet, this will never compare to actually putting it on your tongue.

You must obey your own code, even if you would like to follow the code of a specific tradion, you must follow your own until that tradition becomes one with your own.
Sincerely,
Thomas Herington

What can be done

When the one you love is in pain
And you don’t know how you can help them
There’s nowhere for you to place the blame
nothing for you to condemn

All you want is to make them smile
But you just cant seem to get through
You’ve tried everything, in your own style
It feels as if there’s nothing you can do

You just have to wait
With love in your heart
Knowing they will set themselves straight
Having faith in them, and playing your part

Cloudy days don’t last forever
Pretty soon the sun will shine
This poem wasn’t meant to be clever
It was made to relate to yours and mine

People are so different

People are so different it’s a wonder we can all get along. When I was younger I used to be confused as to why everyone didn’t like the same things I did, because it felt like that had to be the only way to think, how could someone not come to the same conclusion as me?

The older I get the more I realize that people are so different, you could go as far as to say they live in their own dimensions, their own little world, and very rarely do we truly get a glimpse into another’s mind.

We’re all out their hacking our way through the underbrush of life, trying to find our path, or we’ve been hackin away for so long we forget the reason and just learn to enjoy the act of wielding that machete.

Opening up to strangers when you don’t get any selfish reward is something to be cultivated. It brings humanity closer together, helps people relate and see just how many worlds there are out there. It is something that is desperately needed in this time when people are zoning out, checking out, isolating themselves in so many ways, with technology to drugs, to whatever you name it.

Your opinion may be different, but I’d like to think you agree with me.

Sincerely,
Thomas Sterling Herington
