Doubt


I wonder at times what I should truly believe. Ideas formed through life have been formed by whom? Opinions are preconcieved & lack of isolation leads me to doubt my own. Noninformation is the only reliable source, fact being we are over loaded with the contrary & unreliable sources.

I do believe that the sea moves as does the air. Apart from that I wonder if my ideas & opinions are influenced, & my mistrust of the powers that be warns me to doubt said opines.
