You were made to think that you can fight against darkness.
The truth is, you cannot fight a thing in its own domain.
The reason you see a need to fight darkness is the absence of light from within.
Unlearn all that has crippled your light.
Be awakened. Be enlightened. Then come before darkness, and it will disappear, for it cannot contend with light.

Meaning is not an object we find hidden in the world; it is the friction we create by pressing our values against reality.

The ultimate defense against noise is not a louder voice; it is a deeper silence.

As we converse with computers, there comes a need for a contraction of 'she/he/it', most naturally 'sheit'. With an emphasis on the 'h', to reflect the dual genders. A particularly able instance thereof might be termed 'deep sheit'. And conversely, a potential dismissal might be referred to as 'sheit's going down'.

For over 340 years people of color did not have the same voting rights as the white majority (if any at all). In 1965 the Voting Rights Act remedied the situation. After a meager 61 years that same white majority has decided they are now the ones being discriminated against. You can't make this stuff up.

Any poem involves three people: 1) the person who wrote it, 2) the person who speaks it, and 3) the person who reads it. To confuse the first person with the second person is to guarantee the poem won't be successful, which is why so few successful poems are being written today. The poet's goal instead should be to bring the second and third persons as close together as possible.

If all musical works were written with that touch of liveliness and creativity, they would endure even against time.

In many athletic circles, you compete against yourself...and sometimes, you even win.

Oh, if only to reach and touch, so easily, where eyes and hearts can deeply travel in a dreamy instant.

"Don't try to coerce respect through intimidation or obsequiousness - these strategies undermine self-worth and lead to frustration. Authentic respect cannot be compelled; it stems from others' own judgments and choices. Instead of trying to control others' behavior, focus on self-respect and upholding your own standards of integrity. Lead by example through principled and rational responses that speak for themselves. By doing so, you'll maintain personal power and demonstrate true character."

"When faced with disrespect, avoid excessive gossip or complaining, as it can reinforce negativity and victimhood. Instead, share incidents with trusted confidants who offer healthy support and perspective. Pause before venting, and consider if it's truly serving your growth or just spreading toxicity. Shift your focus to constructive action, and frame experiences as opportunities to demonstrate virtues like forgiveness."

"You can't please everyone, and that's okay. Some people will dislike you due to differences in values, worldviews, and experiences. Instead of trying to control others' opinions, focus on being true to yourself. Reflect on feedback mindfully, and use it as an opportunity to grow, but don't take every criticism personally. By accepting that some things are beyond your control, you'll find peace and confidence in being yourself."

Contests are contests against another version of yourself as what seems to be another, is merely another reflection of Self since all selves are separates constituting One Whole. The Whole becomes more and more harmonious as we dish shadowed portions out of the subconscious into the light to be integrated.

There are days when God is quiet. And instead of praying, we complain about the silence.

“The creative process is more often than not euphoric. When euphoria becomes overwhelming resistance kicks in bringing doubt and self-doubt. To end the cycle of euphoria and doubts which hinder the creative process, we need to develop equanimity towards both, making creative processes unending, instead of a stop-start process.”

In the absence of proactive measures to abjure the foreseen, to mitigate any risk thereof, actions become reactionary at best, and matters that should lie within the realm of great certainty instead assume the guise of crisis.

No institution can exist that purportedly upholds the rule of law by breaking it. No institution that has become the prime offender of citizens rights can claim to protect them. Experience has shown that governments are not immune to corruption and therefore are bound by necessity, when required, to reformation. Prudence dictates corruption abrogates the ability for self correction and so remedy must be accomplished through external means.

If we rebel then let it be against our own nature for there is no more imminent an enemy nor worse an oppressor.

If you continually rely upon those at the top then what you will eventually discover is that instead of standing on a mountain, you are hanging by a thread.

There is no back in Time as Einstein suggests -- Time is a part of us, in every cell and mental process recalled – Already, we are all we were, and all we will become – if anything, I seek knowledge of the eternal moment. Conscious oneness with God in His timeless infinite Universe…. The secret is, learning how to listen – “God speaks to us daily” –

Time is an instantiation of moments

So many lessons I have learned from the present...
Broken promises, betrayal, and situations that were unpleasant.
You'd think that I would have learned from the past
But instead, I repeat the patterns I've cast.

In my mind I'm wonderin'
If all those things I never said
Could have changed the way
That things have changed
And made a better world instead...

"Our lies can claim the moment, I say truth owns the future standing firm like a mountain against the tide. Deceit can paint a picture for a while, I say only truth can reveal the masterpiece beneath. The truth doesn’t demand our belief, I say it exists whether we choose to see it or not." - Daniel Henry Rodgers
