Transcendental Cognition 2

So here I stand...naked before the universe...subject to judgment by those roundabout me. Though, who is to say...what is and what should be...for each mind has its own idealism. I believe what I think is true and so do you...your thoughts are no less nor greater... just a different set of circumstances. When stripped of material possessions... I have only myself to give. In this self...is a mind...constantly yearning for learning... striving to teach what has been taught. My subjective eye absorbs all it sees... attempting to avoid the traps of prejudice. I sense I am encompassed... infused with some super-electromagnetic force...tranquil and translucent...yet charged... drawing people and circumstances into my path...for reasons...not always apparent. Still...the signs all read...Opportunities For Growth Ahead...sometimes hard to take heed... trying to go around it...often leads right back. Can we assert our faith...build endurance... tap into the will of goodness...flowing from the nucleus of life...find the eternal body... of substantive LOVE...and LIVE IT?......................................Time will tell......................on us.
