protecting assets

do you really think it is so far fetch that those who have a lot to lose and who truly believe an enemy is evil would not do anything to motivate people to rally around fighting that enemy?...

ever heard of the lesser of two evils?

not really a question

more a fact of life... forget going to the mattresses, can you go to the mirror?... if you don't like what you see, you will not be with me...

and then the song girl plays in my mind even as the tv commercial at volume level 6 is way louder than the show at volume level 10, alas, commercials have destroyed what could have become of this experiment in freedom, or is that capitalism... commy red, commy red, what is going on in your head - commy red, commy red, do you have any idea what you just said - oh the impact of your thinking has the whole country drinking and the greedy ones are finking on their neighbors for a dime and the virtue went to whisper when the commy took your sister in the back seat commy kissed her all over what a crime - but i will not let the ideology turn a blind eye to the horrors that i see as the battles over isms have become insanity and you're understand if you took the time, but since you don't you give away your mind... commy red, commy red, what is missing from your head, half the world is barely fed, and you leave them there for dead, what was that that was not said - are you any better than the red, oh commy red?...

matters of interpretation

speaking of biblical chapters and verses, did you ever consider 1 Corinthians 13:11 might have meant so say When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I felt as a child, I thought as a child. Now that I have become a man, I have lost the child. In other words, in accepting the concepts of being grown-up and taking responsibility, you lose the wonderfully clear perspective of innocence and simplicity that leads to truth that only children maintain...

it might suggest that everything we know is wrong and becoming a man means becoming the self-destructive suicidal ignorant fear-filled beings that any child can see we are... even accepting it as I have left the child behind seems all too accurate... but then, who wants to face that depressing thought?...

help

how often have you said...

"i am only trying to help"

when what you meant was...

"i am really trying to control"

and you never knew...

why the person you were trying to help went away...

...

who is that chameleon in the mirror?

could i be the mirror that smiles inside all the time and yet, to those who see me as their reflection (the strange chameleon posture and facial expression is what does it, but some secrets may be beyond current consciousness), or projection, afraid to actualize the love and share the trust that inspires the smile, i am as they wish me to be...

no wonder they complain about me so much, and vice versa :}

nothing coy about it

if you do not do it, you lose it
if you do not do it, it does not exist
even if you think it does
even if you create a feeling inside
that fools you into believing you do
if you do not do it, you don't

did you care today?
what did you do?

value

facebook is appalled! (or is it appalling?)… no, really, what do you truly value in this life?

social what?

laughing at the fact that i get text messages to remind me to check facebook messages that remind me of events i have been invited to (sometimes)... and laughing at myself for rhetorically wondering whatever happened to phone calls from friends to invite you over (oh yeah, voicemail :)

visits?...

maybe laughing is not what i really mean?

callous sense

sensitivity isn't worth much when it's covered in calluses... but are the calluses on the inside or the outside or both... and does the answer answer the question, "who cares?"...

being grown ups

on the responsibility of being and understanding (or understanding being, for that matter)...

does simplification of everything into judgements of good and bad really make it easier for children to understand life, pain, tragedy, cruelty, and ultimately death or is it really the grown ups who placate their own fear by creating a black and white good and evil delusional rationalization to avoiding facing the responsibility and colors of their own actions in this life, on this planet, and in this universe?...

vegania

is it arrogance, ignorance, common sense, or foolish guilt that defines life simply by mobility and five senses?... not just ego?...

anything like "made in his image?"

just sayin...
