Injustices stew in the venom of immoderation
and toxins of intolerance. Justice snakes narrow trails
along steep cliffsides; civilizations that fail
these fragile ways annihilate their core.
When we understand our personalities by acknowledging
tendencies and impulses, we move toward balance.
Dwelling upon inner realities, facing our hidden prejudices,
we stride toward the honor of equanimity, the dawn of reason.
