Invisible Ink

Projection is no more than speculation, guessing with  invisible ink.

Idioms like: “It is what it is” and “Whatever” are pervasive in American Society today  and both say I don’t give a damn. Well I certainly do and throwaway dialogue is for those that think they cannot change things or the courage that they can.  

Naming It

The best days are my worst days for a number of reasons.  One, they don't last long, and the next day is 1000 times better. What I feared never looked the same the next day.  I realize I had no faith and that I don't have to let what someone did or didn't do be the reason I created the unhappiness to begin with.  And lastly my greatest fear never really has a name to begin with, it was just a passing thunderstorm, noisy but lightning never struck. 

Sunday Knocks Part VI

The last shall be first and the first well they can come in second if they can stand it. 

I am not who I think I am. I read that in "Awakening the Buddha Within" by Lama Surya Das.  Self-constructed labels are self-fulfilling prophecies so be careful what you don’t call yourself. 

There ought to be a law keeping the word “Magical” out of car commercials. Is there nothing sacred? 

I don’t want to go  back in time because I may not recognize the person I am now. 

Confidence & Fire

Confidence is unmotivated behavior but motivation is the back seat driver.

How is it when we need to bring fire to a situation we can only muster the flame on a candle? 

Take the Wheel

Who is going to drive the car when I have to pull off the road? I am so ready to buckle my seat belt in the passenger side and close my eyes and nod off. When the new driver arrives at my next destination, I am sure they will wake me up.  I for one am tired of keeping my eyes open.  

Sunday Knocks

Our reaction to anger is usually a selfish embrace of someone else's delusion.

Patience is not giving in to the thinking solution.

Witnessing our own anger keeps it from being over inflated.

How is it that something that seemed so right, now feels like crimes of the heart, mind and soul?
