WHO I AM AND MY FOUNDATION. FROM THESE SPRING I. |
YOU DON’T HAVE TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE CONSTRUCTION COMPANY TO REALIZE IT IS A VERY FINE ROAD. VIOLENCE FOR CHANGE IS THE CHILD OF THAT IT RESISTS. AS SUCH IT IS DESTINED TO CONCATENATE AND BEGET THE GRANDCHILD. A CHAIN ENDLESSLY FORGED IN FIRE. SELF--HERE LAY THE INGREDIENT UPON WHICH THE ENTIRE MEASURE OF A SOCIETY IS DETERMINED. YOU KNOW YOURSELF BETTER THAN ANYONE DOES. THEREFORE IF YOU DON’T LOVE YOURSELF WHY SHOULD ANYBODY ELSE? OH WE OF TATTERED PLUMAGE THROUGH NO FAULT OF OUR OWN. FALLEN INTO HADES AS THOUGH SUNDERED BY A STONE, THE LEADERS THAT WE FOLLOWED BEHAVED OF LOWEST RANK. WHILE THE PATH WE HOPED FOR UPWARD TO THE DEPTHS NOW WE HAVE SANK. TIS NOT THE GRASP OF ANKLES PULLING WITH THE WEIGHT OF BOULDERS, NAY MY FRIENDS TIS FECKLESS LEADERS STANDING ON OUR SHOULDERS. THE DOOR OF A BUILDING IS NOT AN EXIT. IT IS LIKE A TWO HEADED COIN. ONE SIDE IS THE ENTRANCE TO THE BUILDING. THE OTHER SIDE IS THE ENTRANCE TO THE WORLD. I DO NOT WANT TO OWN YOU. I DO NOT WANT TO BE OWNED. I JUST WANT TO KNOW YOU AND BE A LITTLE KNOWN. IT DOES NOT HELP TO FOCUS ON THE LENGTH OR DIFFICULTY OF A TASK. IT IS FAR MORE PRODUCTIVE TO FOCUS ON GETTING IT DONE. THE NUMBER OF WORDS IS UNIMPORTANT IF THEY ACCOMPLISH THE GOAL OF MAKING THE THOUGHT CLEAR. IT IS NOT THE PEOPLE AT YOUR FEET HOLDING YOU DOWN. IT IS THE ONES STANDING ON YOUR SHOULDERS. THE TIME HAS COME BUT IT DOES NOT LAST AND EVEN TOMORROW IS SOON OUR PAST. WE TWIST WE TURN IN THE UNSEEN BREEZE, IT DOES NOT FULFILL NOR DOES IT PLEASE. THE COUNTLESS DAYS SOON FINITE AND WE SLIP CONFUSED INTO THE NIGHT. IGNORANCE IS A COMFORT ZONE GUARDED ZEALOUSLY BY DENIAL OF THE TRUTH. WHEN YOU TELL A LIE, WHETHER IT IS BELIEVED OR NOT, YOU HAVE REVEALED TWO THINGS. ONE, YOU DID SOMETHING YOU BELIEVE WAS WRONG AND TWO YOU ARE A LIAR. DON’T LIVE DOWN TO SOMEBODY ELSE’S EXPECTATION OF YOU, LIVE UP TO YOURS. YOU SAY SAND THROUGH AN HOUR GLASS TELLS TIME. I SAY IT DEMONSTRATES GRAVITY. AH PERSPECTIVE! YOU SAY SURELY BOTH ARE TRUE, I SAY WE BOTH PORTRAY THE FOOL. BECAUSE WE BELIEVE DOESN’T GUARANTEE RIGHT. ANOTHER ANSWER, THERE JUST MIGHT!!! TIME ONLY HAS MEANING WHEN IN RELATIONSHIP TO MAN. WHAT TIME IS IT IN A SOLAR SYSTEM WHERE THE INHABITED PLANET TAKES 33HR. 24 MIN. 19 SEC. TO COMPLETE A REVOLUTION? I CAN ONLY ASSUME, AS THE EARTH IS ROUND, IF YOU FOLLOW THE SUN, EVERYWHERE IS WEST. THAT IS UNTIL YOU PASS IT, THEN IT IS THE EAST. IS NOTHING CARVED IN STONE? HOW PECULIAR!! WHEN YOU ARGUE WITH A FOOL, YOU DO A FOOLISH THING. I AM ALWAYS ALIVE. BUT THERE ARE THOSE WHO SEEK MY DEMISE. HOWEVER I CANNOT ABIDE THEIR PREFERENCE. LIFE FLOWS FROM ME WITH EACH EXHALATION OF BREATH AND TEARS WATER THE ARID DESERT OF MY SOUL. THE WIND HOWLS THRU THE SKELETAL REMAINS OF MY BEING AND DUST, DUST, DUST PORTRAYS ME. A SNEEZE, THE LAVING OF HANDS, SHAKING OF SHEETS AND I AM NO MORE. THE RED OF SUNSET SHOWS SO MANY SOULS. ONE OF THE GREAT LIES IS RACE DIFFERENCE. I PROMISE YOU ONE THING, I DO NOT BELONG TO THE WHITE, BLACK, BROWN, RED OR YELLOW CULTURE. FOR BY NOT CLAIMING ANY OF THESE DESIGNATIONS I SECURE MY PLACE IN THE HUMAN RACE. WHO AM I TO JUDGE GOD’S CREATIONS? FEAR IS CRIPPLING. THEY WHO STARE AT THEIR PAST STUMBLE IN THEIR FUTURE. IT IS IMPORTNT TO REMEMBER WHEN YOU ARE LOOKING AT YOURSELF IN THE MIRROR, THE LIGHT REFLECTED FROM YOUR BACK AND SIDES REPRESENT YOUR IMAGE ALSO. NO TWO PEOPLE MAY OBSERVE THE SAME EVENT. THE NUMBER OF TRUE VERSIONS OF AN EVENT IS EXACTLY EQUAL TO THE NUMBER OF OBSERVERS OF SAID EVENT. THE PARADOX COMES FROM THE FACT THAT THE NUMBER OF DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF AN EVENT IS ALSO EXACTLY EQUAL TO THE NUMBER OF OBSERVERS OF SAID EVENT. YOU CANNOT PAY SOMEBODY ELSE TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR LIFE. IF YOU ARE A STALK OF CORN IT IS EASY TO HIDE IN A CORN FIELD. ALL THINGS ARE MEANT TO EXIST. BUT IN AN UNBALANCED WORLD THEY EXIST IN DISPROPORTIONATE PERCENTAGES. I ENJOY LOOKING FORWARD TO MY DEATH, FOR IT IS BUT ANOTHER OF LIFE’S EXPERIENCES, INTERESTING ENOUGH I HOPE, THAT I SHALL ENJOY LOOKING BACKWARD UPON IT AS WELL. DO NOT CONSIDER VERBOSITY, CONSIDER COMPREHENSIBILITY. OH YOU OSTRICHES MY FELLOW MAN. THEY LED US HERE AND POINTED, SAYING THIS IS SAND. NOW LEST BY CHANCE A FOOL WE HAP TO BE. THE TRUTH IS PLAIN FOR ALL TO SEE. TIME FOR US TO STRUGGLE AND THROW A FIT. YUCK, PHOOEY AND OUT WE SPIT. THAT’S NOT SAND IT’S BULLSHIT. WHEN SHALL WE GROW TIRED OF HAVING WOOL IN OUR EYES. NO LAKE IS PURE IF ITS DROPS ARE POLLUTED. IF IT WAS YOUR COUNTRY THAT WAS INVADED WOULD YOU EVER QUIT FIGHTING? NEITHER WILL THEY BEWARE YOUR FOE--A MAN WHO HAS NOTHING TO LOSE--CANNOT LOSE. IF YOU WAR WITH A COUNTRY THAT WILL NOT QUIT--YOU CANNOT WIN. DOES ANYONE REMEMBER VIET NAM? LIFE IS THE ULTIMATE UNIVERSITY. TIME IS A MAN MADE CONSTRUCT, WHOSE SOLE PURPOSE IS TO BRING AN ORDERED FORM TO THE EVENTS OF OUR LIVES. IT HAS NO PLACE IN THE OVERALL PICTURE, WHERE WHAT IS--IS AND WHAT ISN’T MIGHT BE BUT REMAINS TO BE SEEN. WHEN YOU HAVE JUST SLIPED AND CUT OFF YOUR FOOT WITH AN AXE, THAT IS NOT THE TIME TO WORRY IF YOU DAMAGED ITS CUTTING EDGE. TO FEAR DEATH IS TO FEAR LIFE, NEITHER ONE DID WE GET A VOTE IN AND BOTH WILL OCCUR WHETHER WE LIKE IT OR NOT. BETWEEN BLACK AND WHITE ARE COUNTLESS SHADES OF GREY. IF THESE SHADES OF GREY ARE NOT CONSIDERED, FACTORED AND APPLICABLE, THE INDIVIDUAL NATURE OF THINGS IS FOR ALL PURPOSES DENIED. IT IS IMPORTANT TO ACCEPT THAT WE DO NOT HAVE TO WIND OUR WATCHES AT THE SAME TIME IN ORDER FOR US ALL TO KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS. ALL THAT IS OWED AND DUE NOW COMES. THE GRASS IS ALWAYS GREENER ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE FENCE. IF NOT PASS A LAW THAT SAYS IT MUST BE. IF A MAN PULLS ONTO A ROAD AND DRIVES LONG ENOUGH WITHOUT EXITING, HE IS ASSURED IN ARRIVING EXACTLY WHERE IT LEADS. WHEN SOMEONE ELSE HOLDS THE REINS OF YOUR MOUNT, DO NOT EXPECT A PLEASANT RIDE. VOTE COUNTS; THE ONLY WAY TO INSURE YOUR VOTE DOES NOT COUNT IS TO NOT USE IT. JUST BECAUSE YOU CHOOSE NOT TO ACCEPT OR BELIEVE, DOES NOT MEAN IT IS NOT TRUE. HAVE AN OPINION ON EVERYTHING, BUT BE WILLING TO CHANGE ONE OR TWO EVERYDAY. BE CAREFUL OF TRYING TO PROJECT YOUR BELIEFS ON ANY SITUATION. BECAUSE AT THE BOTTOM LINE, THE TRUTH IS--AND BELIEF IS MERELY THAT, BELIEF. TAKE YOUR TIME AND SEEK THE TRUTH. THIS IS NOT SAND WE ARE BURYING OUR HEAD IN, ITS BULLSHIT. IT IS RIDICULOUS TO CLAIM ANYBODY DIED BEFORE THEIR TIME. EVERY PERSON IS GUARANTEED BY BIRTH EXACTLY THE AMOUNT OF TIME THEY NEED. IF CAUGHT IN AN AVALANCHE A WISE MAN DOES NOT PLACE HIS TRUST IN AN UMBRELLA. IT IS NOT COWARDICE IF YOU ARE MERELY CHOOSING YOUR FIELD OF BATTLE. IF YOUR GOAL IS VICTORY, REMEMBER IT DOES NOT HAVE TO HAPPEN TODAY. A WISE MAN TAKES HIS TIME AND WINS, A FOOL RUSHES TO HIS DEFEAT. OVER TIME LITTLE DROPS OF WATER WILL DISSOLVE THE LARGEST STONE. THERE ARE NO ACCIDENTS; EVERYTHING IS FOUNDED IN CAUSE AND EFFECT. THE GREATEST IMPEDIMENT TO THE TRUTH IS BELIEF. THE JOURNEY OF SELF DISCOVERY IS BUT ETERNITY IN LENGTH. NO PERSON EVER HAS LESS VALUE THAN WHEN THEY SEEK TO EXALT THEMSELVES AT THE EXPENSE OF OTHERS STATURE. YOU DO NOT RAISE YOURSELF BY PUTTING ANOTHER DOWN. DO CABALS AND CONSPIRACIES EXIST? THE FACT SO MUCH IS CONJECTURED AND WRITTEN ABOUT THIS SUBJECT INSURES ITS VERACITY. WHAT MAN CAN CONCEIVE MAN WILL TRY TO ACHIEVE. WHEN IT IS YOUR VICE IT IS PERSONAL CHOICE. WE ARE GENERALLY SO LOST IN WHAT WE DO, WE CONFUSE IT WITH WHAT WE ARE AND FAIL TO SEE WHAT WE CAN BE. IT IS NEVER THE VEHICLE WHICH HAS STATUS. IT IS THE DRIVER. HE IS “THE MAN”, HE HAS A PLAN, DON’T INTERFERE, THE ROAD IS CLEAR. FOLLOW THE WAY AND WATCH WHAT YOU SAY. EXPERIENCE GLORY OF THE PROMISED DAY. THOSE WHO PROFIT THEY DO NOT DIE, THEY COVER THEIR GREED WITH ANOTHER LIE. WEALTH, POWER, AND POSSESIONS THESE AND ONLY THESE ARE THE FUEL OF WAR. WAR IS NOT ABOUT RIGHT OR WRONG, RATHER IT IS ABOUT GOOD AND EVIL. NO--THAT IS WRONG, IT IS ONLY ABOUT EVIL. A GOVERNMENT WITH A PERCENTAGE OF ITS POPULATION DISENFRANCHISED, HAS NO RIGHT TELLING OTHERS HOW THEY SHOULD RULE. UNTIL A MAN’S OWN HOUSE DOES NOT LEAK HE HAS NO RIGHT TO WORK ON ANOTHER. NEVER QUIT, FOR WHEN YOU QUIT YOU ARE DEAD, STILL WALKING AROUND MAYBE, HOWEVER STILL DEAD. TOMORROW IS NOT OUR’S IT BELONGS TO OTHERS. CHERISH TODAY LIKE JEALOUS LOVERS. YOUR WORD, SO COMPLEX, POWERFUL, DEFINING FOR WHEN YOU GIVE YOUR WORD YOU GIVE YOUR VERBAL REPRESENTATION OF WHO YOU CLAIM TO BE. IF YOUR WORD IS NO GOOD--YOU ARE NO GOOD. YOU CANNOT NUTURE YOUR MOTHER THE EARTH. WHAT A SURPRISE YOUR CHILDREN YOU HURT. OTHER PEOPLE WHY BOTHER TO TRY? THE BOTTOM LINE ITS ALL ABOUT I. TO TAKE YOUR TIME AND LEND A HAND. OH, MY GOD ITS ANOTHER MAN. HOW GREAT THE FEAR THERE IS MORE THAN ME. I DON’T UNDERSTAND HOW THAT CAN BE. THE PRICE WE PAY NOW THAT’S REAL FUNNY. WE SEE THE PRICE AND THINK OF MONEY. BUT, SHOULD THEY TELL THE TRUTHFUL COST, THE RESOURCES, HEALTH AND SPECIES LOST. PREHAPS WE WOULD STOP, AND THINK REAL DEEP, BEFORE WE SAID I WANT IT AND TAKE THE LEAP. PROBABLY NOT. I CAN TINT MY HAIR AND TUCK MY FACE. DENY THE TIME I JOINED THE HUMAN RACE. I CAN EVEN ADOPT A YOUTHFUL PACE. WHY NOT HIDE THAT I AM A GLUTTON, JUST USE A LITTLE ARTFUL LIPO SUCTION. OH BUT SURELY AS I COME FACE THE FIRE I CANNOT ESCAPE BECAUSE I AM A LIAR. MY GOD IS THE GOD OF LOVE, PEACE AND VALUES OF THE HIGHEST ORDER AND I WILL KILL YOU TO MAKE YOU BELIEVE IT. BECAUSE I LOVE YOU. THEY SAY HE CAME AND LIFTED OUR TERRIBLE LOAD. THEN HE OPENED THE GATES TO A GLORIOUS ROAD. WELL, I’LL GIVE HIM THIS HE SURE WEREN’T LAZY. HOWEVER, TO DO THAT FOR MAN HE MUST HAVE BEEN CRAZY. |
