What of truth? It is gold

What of moral character? It is the biggest prize

Values though. Enables truth

Brings light to the dark. Enables the genuine

The enduring, true voice inside … among the multiple voices that could be

Whispers true all day long. The voice speaks inside.

In its domain we wander. Awake to it, or asleep. Refusing it or accepting it.

It is up to you.

No parent, partner, teacher, wise person, mentor can hear your voice

Nor choose for you. Your values base is yours to choose.

Chipped and honed over time – aspires, staying true north

As we grow, so shall we lead.

Delivering authentic spaces. Authentic engagement. Encouraging vulnerable responses. 

Softening the space

Allowing for a serving. The common good.

A coming together.

When the winds of justice grow

The despot turns. Tyrants fall. Falsehood blows.

The immoral crumbles. Liars defeated

The values-based pillar lasts. A pillar of truth. Of triumphant strength

Of purpose. Of hope. Of heart. Its place.

Transcends the limits of the carnal. Weathers the worst.

Stands. Your values base.
