I couldn't find a thread like this, so I figure I'll start one. Here's how it works: Post your own riddles, or answer ones already posted. If someone else solves your riddle(s), edit your post adding the solution, and name of the first person to get it.


I'll start


One of us in the past you've met


Another in the present I'd bet


A third spends life time within


The fourth is first in original sin


and the fifth, should you pursue


Will always be a part of you.


What are we?


Vowels A, E, I, O, and U, are correct, congratulations to BendBarsLiftGates. Good luck on solving the next one.


                                              


I am the truth and the truth in me


cannot be found, or felt, or seen


All have me, and yet none know


Because knowledge contradicts me so.


What am I?


Guest543655710 guessed Faith, and it is correct. Faith or Belief are both acceptable answers.


__________________________


Those should be good for starters, have fun, and let the game begin.

Sneaky, sneaky, sneaky.


The first riddle...


One of us in the past you've met


Another in the present I'd bet


A third spends life time within


The fourth is first in original sin


and the fifth, should you pursue


Will always be a part of you.


What are we?


Is "the vowels a, e, i, o, u."


If it helps, the cues that tipped me off were "There are five of them" and "The fourth is first in..." When a riddle says that something "can be found in..." it usually means that the word or item is hidden within the word.

Ok, looks like we need more riddles. Anyone can throw one out there, please feel free. I've got a few more to keep things going though, lets try them.


I am Diamonds and Emeralds lost by the moon


Found by the sun and picked up so soon


What am I?


_____________________________________


I am lost and found and lost again


In a cave I sleep with my many friends


We live long and strong if you take care


and if you speak the truth, we must be there.

Have fun with those!!
