In defiance of what…
My most cherished friend, where have you gone? What is this mysterious tragedy that has befallen you? Am I to blame, or am I only an onlooker? How I wish I could break through the shallowness of life and live without regrets or fear! I want to find myself standing in a place of peaceful tranquility, but all I have are questions! Questions that I do not believe Socrates or Homer could fathom an answer too… It is perplexing to sit in wonder of what each day will bring, and how will the bills will be paid? Such is the life of a peasant... I cannot make decisions for others; I can only make up my mind` on what I want to do. Where I want to travel, and how I plan to get there. No one needs worry about me, I have my hands and my feet, and I am an upstanding individual. I walk through the field of persons I am associated with. Some are nice, some are mean, but I am an individual! I will not conform to anyone’s way. I do not think anyone can really conform to anyone, the best we can do is imitate what others do, and believe. However, we will never think as they think. In that respect, we are all the same. We think for our selves. And without the ability to share words, we would never progress… I might be concerned with the future of this planet when I am in a good mood. Yet, just get me angry, and I don’t care what extreme behavior I will do! I think controlling anger and greed will bring about` a more hopeful outcome in my life. I will do better to smile and share words of encouragement, not because anything is gonna get better, but only because: We all hate whiners! So, I am upset, yes frustrated, and confused at how I have found myself in this predicament? Do I not have a compass to guide me through these mental and emotional upheavals? Of course I do, I just forgot to be stubborn with myself!!! I can hold my ground' and use self-rhetoric to get my point across. It is when I talk to myself, in my head' that I do not understand the power I wield. I am able to make this human machine read and learn. I am able to run and play and laugh! HA HA HA I can show others "concern" without thinking about what is in it for me. It seems to me, I was lost because I did not know how to share, and I hung with people who don’t care what happens to themselves or this planet. I evoke my freewill to deliver “me” into a brighter future! By the choices and teachers I find along the way, I will always be able to solve "all my troubles" or at best, accept them. If not, we all know the true power given to each individual. In times like these, I am thankful I can think for myself…
