Understanding is not reasoning of the mind,

Which only leads to conflict and judgment;

taking up roots in the heart,

much firmer than those of scientific or man-made rationality.

 

Over time, these become immovable mountains,

fixed in place, so others have to go round them,

Or recognize, “do you see that mountain up ahead?”

 

Let my understanding become of the heart.

 

Where positions and events are just that.

Waypoints on a soul’s journey through life.
