In Truth

“Think as if your every thought were to be etched
in fire upon the sky for everything and everyone to see;
for so, in truth, it is.

Speak as if the world entire were but a single ear,
intent on hearing what you say;
for so, in truth, it is.

Do as if your every deed
were to recoil upon your head;
for so, in truth, it does.

Wish as if you were the wish;
for so, in truth, you are.

Live as if your God himself
had need of you his life to live;
for so, in truth, He does.”
--- The Book of Mirdad
