Poem: The philosophy of philosophies

The greatest philosophy lies not in the faculty of human intelligence

The greatest philosophy is buried in the heart of man or woman

It’s not the complex stories of religious dogma

Or the meticulously calculated stage of politics and economics

It’s not the technological savvy platform of science

Or the academically enriched school of education

It’s the spirit within

The philosophy of philosophies is to value life

Regardless of its vulnerabilities or weaknesses

Life is sacred beyond imagination

It’s only the foolish men or women

Who will recklessly put a knife to the cord of life

It’s true that life comes in many shades of colours

It’s colourful and happy in spring

And greyish and cold in winter

But life stands at the pedestal of existence

Not to broadcast its success or evolutionary victories

But to define the very existence of existence

It’s common for men or women to differ

Sometimes delving into the pit of wickedness

To manufacture a brand new philosophy

But it’s known

That the greatest philosophy of them all

Has been unveiled

“Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind, and love your neighbor as yourself.” Luke 10:27

This is the philosophy of philosophies
