When the true north compass is skewed,

one looks to the stars to find their way.

When the moral compass is skewed,

one looks to the heavens to find their way.

When directional compass is skewed, 

one looks to knowledge to find their way.

 

When misinformation becomes reality,

where does one find the truth?

When purpose for life itself becomes skewed 

where does one look, which path does one take?

    Heavy questions so very well constructed.
    'Wish I knew the answer, Suresh.
    And further, even if I got it right, what about everyone else?

      We must mend our ways, or there will be nothing left to mend. Thanks

      Clever words Suresh, we each need to walk our own path to lead to the absolute truth in our own lives.

      Oooo Suresh you have hit it on the head and this shines light on the awful state of the world today. The lies out there are so scary.....
