Avoiding Kryptonite

"He who looks outside, dreams. He who looks inside, awakens." Carl Gustave Jung Be not manacled, bound or tightly tethered to a paradigm that appears to be status quo Being mired in quicksand made of torpor will observe you drowning in an undertow Look inside yourself to become a flowing river willing to accept waters of many tributaries those that offer new elements of enrichment Awaken your mind to the 'what ifs' of estuaries Don't wallow or flounder about in muck and silt Widen your banks until they expand without edge Let your thoughts become ripples on your surface then follow them to seek wisdom and knowledge Do battle with the stagnation of complacency It's a human fault we often label, "satisfaction" but if truth be told, it should be called "passivity" Always push one step further by taking action Escape from entrapment in dungeons of darkness Brush away the leaden clouds from your vision that may be guilty of having obscured your insight Make a breakthrough by creating a simple revision Delusions and blurred illusions will soon fade away You don't have to leap building of soaring height You're not Super Man, but don't allow your apathy and laidback demeanor to become your kryptonite
