The Cold War

Ladies and gentlemen, how often do we find ourselves caught in the midst of a war? Sometimes we feel we are the victim when in actuality, we are the attacker. We are the intruder. Without alert we swoop down on our prey with little to no regard for there perspective of current lifestyle. We may not come with the intent to change things, but with our overbearing ways, we often do just that. Round of applause for those who reclaim the reigns. For too often we take advantage and use our powers for evil without consideration. We do what we want, when we want and expect instant results. We care not about the others feelings to what we say and do. Some call it selfish. I say only if you are unaware to what you are doing. I guess that's why they say ignorance is bliss. Not true, if your lack of knowledge is not blissful to anyone. If you aren't getting the results you want, you best believe you are not too pleasing the subject of your choosing. To make matters worse, in the world today of instant this and presto that. Everything we want from cakes to full course meals can be whipped up with the press of a button. We have been contorted into instant, even with communication. Dry cleaning to worldly events can be at the end of our fingertips. As if emails don't travel fast enough and cell phones aren't convenient enough, we have instant messenger, online dating, text messages and a magnitude of other ways to communicate and meet. So we as single, sometimes confuse niceness with weakness. Not knowing that it's a totally different league. There are levels and processees. Even though they may not meet our agenda, which is usually: quick, fast and in a hurry. We don't pay attention to the signs and when presented with all that we want we are so blind we don't recognize. You spend your time searching and working for what you already have. The what you want might be right there, but you are distracted by what you feel it should be. How often do we neglect to realize the potential! How often we don't allow time and patience to create room for growth. It will happens when you don't even know it, you know, least expect it. Contradictory it may seem but it could all be so simple. Of course, the wanting will forever lurk in the shadows. One must know that things are as they should be. Treat others as you want to be treated, conciously and subconsciously. Be kind and respectful, open and trusting. Be smart and choose your words carefully. Be aware of your thoughts, for they become what you speak. Be positive even in the face of disappointment. Nothing is out of reach if you simply believe. Know yourself and understand your gut instincts, versus an impulse action. Live on the edge and have fun. Try new things and have no fear. Act without regret. Be proud but not pretentious. Be aggressive but not pushy. Pay attention. Work on the aura you give and reception of others. Be able to separate the real from the lames. Weed out the weak. Stand for something. Appreciate what you have and be grateful for all that you receive. Learn from it, grow with it. Evolve. Elevate to a higher plane. Welcome constructive criticism. Be not the victim or the intruder. Stand in the balance. Suspended in the hills is peace. One must create space for peace. There will be storms, but they will always be followed by rainbows. Be not a creator of trouble. Be not an attractor of evil. Repel all that is not worthy of you. Be generous to all that is. Be giving, forever giving. Read, listen and give thanks. The war is often inside yourself.
