Principals According to Socrates

Socrates was a very wise man, no doubt,
who knew what life was really all about.
Here is a glimpse of principals that he lived by,
falsely accused, he drank hemlock to willingly die.

But his teachings proved that his integrity is still intact,
for he set the standards showing the rest of us how to act,
Know thyself is the effective key that he sends,
know how you tick and listen to your inner voice if you can.

To access your inner voice, you must spend time alone,
then listen, trust and criticize the answers that you’re shown.
If you must, buck authority, to get to the truth,
ask great questions, but listen to the answers like a sleuth.

Always be honest, speak your truth and have courage,
there are risks to endure, so don’t become discouraged.
Try to grow with friends by spending quality time,
understand, give respect and your friendship will surely shine.

Challenge conventional wisdom; “What is unique about us to learn?”
“What are we here for?” or “What are we here to discern?”
Think for yourself and stay true to your principals,
because impact is greatest when you remain invincible.

And strengthen your soul, but always check to see,
if what you’re doing is what you are really meant to be.
“Are you living your authentic life?” your inner voice may chatter,
because following your path, in this life, is what truly matters.
