Here’s a piece of prose poetry, or poetic prose ….
My core belief is that there are no core beliefs. Everything is susceptible to change.
I craved for understanding and acceptance, and believed that it will emerge miraculously from somewhere, but it never did.
I believed that sadness will disappear at the other end of the rainbow. The rainbow is a mirage which never ends.
I asked for death yesterday, and the morning brings news of the premature demise of a fellow Leo, who searched for happiness all her life. Is Death a metaphor? Is destiny interchangeable? Are wishes permeable? What separates me from another soul with similar cravings?
At the fag end of life, I realize that I have got that understanding and acceptance – but only from myself. And I wonder, what made me want it to come from outside me…..

Yes we have no role play in Destiny chapter, very well expressed Reena.
And self realisation is utmost important aspect than letting outer world our perspective.

I must admit I have struggled with this post as I find am uncomfortable writing about myself in the way this prompt is asking but I did like your assertion that ‘everything is susceptible to change.’ I might now give it a go.

I wonder if instead of “core belief” it should be reworded as “core values” since it’s pretty hard to find a person who doesn’t have some sort of worldview?

I see them interlinked in some way. Beliefs drive values.

Everyone wants and searches for acceptance understanding and love from someone throughout their life. Not everyone gets it. I don’t think we will ever know how many do and how many do not. It is fortunate you have the ability to give it to yourself.
In this situation a religious person prays to God for acceptance and support in a time of suffering and despair. It’s all ponderous stuff.:)

There are black holes in the functioning of the universe. Total understanding and absolute truths are therefore, only myths.

Thought-provoking piece, Reena. I agree with the other commenter that the only constant is change. To question things in life and to question life itself are good mental exercises and lets us grow.

Very profound, gives me a lot to mule over. The only constant is change. I have never been a believer in absolute truths because in the end the questing and the questioning is probably a big part of what it is to be human. I don’t think there can be a truth that is true for everyone in every circumstance, I think truth is in the moment, in the just is (not the I wish), it’s personal and ultimately transient.
