The Test

The Test

A Poem by MCS
"

“Don’t explain your philosophy. Embody it.” ~ Epictetus

"





Finding calm in the storm



Nature has a way of teaching



Looking inward



To find courage



To test wisdom



To embrace temperance



To practice justice



To grow an unshakable



Creed

Thomas, thank you for your visit and sharing.
I like this! I don't have anything unshakeable except my faith. But that's God and not me. I can't take credit for what I believe because it was proven to me over these many years again and again. I'm sort of slow but I caught on at last.
