Spirit tells me that

We are, He and I,

As the two sides of one coin,

With the only difference being

That my side is heavier, so that,

With any given toss, or dispute,

The chances of my winning over

His ideas are slimmer than slim.

But, He tells me, I should never

Not challenge Him, but just try

To put less wasted energy

Into the process.

Believe what I must, but only

As long as I must, and then

Let go without regret, for

The possibly lifetimes of energy

That I have poured into

Its defence.

Release it gently, He tells me,

And live today’s truth, that may,

Tomorrow, also be,

Yesterday’s truth.
