I Know "They" Say, Why Buy The Cow If The Milk Is Free, But The Real Question Is Why BUY A Cow When There's SO MUCH FREE MILK?!? *stroking my chin* Hmm... Is Society To Blame?...

NEW BLOG: D.O.S. (Death Of "Swag" or whatever you wanna call it) http://www.RENEGADE357@blogspot.com (for those whose say I got it "going on" LoL)

D.O.S. (..in death; there's life)

So, you just picked up a 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle of a beautiful sunset in the Florida Keys. From the photograph you can tell there is a gentle breeze blowing in the evening sun as the palm trees are bend to the will of the summer breeze. There is a couple sailing on the horizon as sea gulls grab an early evening meal just shy of their boat. The view of the beautiful sunset puts you at peace and your desires are now to complete this puzzle that you may gaze upon its brilliance. So you begin the tedious task of putting this puzzle together. You're not sure whether you really have the time, but you convince yourself that by taking your time with it, you can complete your task in due time. You take even available minute of your day and dedicate it to the task at hand, and you build. You are now beginning to see this masterpiece come together, and it brings a smile to your face. And as you feel that you are drawing to close, the a CRUSHING realization... you're missing puzzle pieces. *cue GLOOM AND DOOM music* Now the question of the day, did you loose these puzzle pieces OR were they not there when you started i.e. did you EVER have a chance to begin with?

And so it is with relationships in the beginning. We want that picture perfect, image of a relationship and we do everything we THINK is right to build it up, and at some point, we find that we just don't "have what it takes". Its that unhinging, brutal truth that gets you. You NEVER EVEN HAD A CHANCE. And as gut wrenching and heartbreaking as it may be, is there a silver lining? REALLY?!? Is that "Vision of Love" enough? Is it worth counting up the pieces from the start? Is that even an OPTION? How are we supposed to know? Or it is the "mystery" that which DRIVES US? This blog offers no answers, just clever questions, expressed the way I felt the times when I realized that I was missing the necessary pieces to have the one I wanted. Its how I felt when I stepped back, away from the incomplete picture, and lamented at my failure and realized some pieces I legitimately lost along the way, FOR THOSE, I am the blame. But the pain of not having had a chance at all, is not of my design and all my "swag" or "chivalry" or "personality" etc could have changed that...

...regardless, I'm taking of moment of silence for the Death of MY Swag (or whatever you want to call it)...

...My Ego Has Taken More Shots Than I Care To Count, And In This Moment, I Am Down And Out For The Count...

...as if lying here sulking really counts...

...I counted the cost of going on and I'd rather lie here if I may...

...comforting in the sleep of my death...

...morning my ego...

... and eventually becoming...

...and even COCKIER BASTARD cause I change like the seasons...

...in winter lying in wait for Spring...

SO, if you can bare my sorrow today, you'll see arrogance tomorrow...

HOPE YOU BROUGHT YOUR COAT.....................................................................................................

The Questions

Its been a while since I've had the time or energy to blog so here we go... TONIGHT'S TOPIC: The Questions

This idea came to me when I thought about how "hell bent" some people get on forcing someone to give a "yes" or "no" answer to their questioning. RARELY, will you EVER get one of these from me and if you do, I suggest you "question the answer" cause its PROBABLY NOT what you think... but with me, what ever is...

QUESTIONS!!!!

They can be tricky, and we have to be VERY cautious. When a person asks you a question and DEMANDS a "yes" or "no" answer, they give you the illusion of choice, but when you respond, you don't realize that you are accepting ALL of their terms and conditions. You are bending TOTALLY and COMPLETELY to THEIR will. You are accepting EVERYTHING that is IMPLIED in their questionING. SO....

...I don't "answer questions, with questions" I take the time to clarify WHAT IT IS that you're REALLY asking me and the PURPOSE for the question. What are you implying? See, HEREIN lies the basis of conversation... COMMUNICATION! Cause until we understand what language we're speaking the meanings can get confused and you'll end up accused of something you're "not trying to say". And once you've said what others THINK you mean, THEY no longer want to hear, as if they did to begin with....

...for your consideration...

EVERY culture throughout the Ancient world had a "Trickster" and whether he went by Elegbara, Pan, Anasi, or Genie, their purpose is the same. They called upon us to CAUTIOUS in our questioning and our desires, because ULTIMATELY, you "got what you asked for". Over time, these "Tricksters" became "models" for the Christian concept of the "devil" (even in the case of Pan, taking on his goat-like appearance and crimson hue). Even serpants get a "bad rap" cause he simply said to Eve, if you eat it you'll know good from evil... did he "lie"? Did he "tempt" her? He told her THE TRUTH and let her decide for herself. AND THEN she goes to Adam, and He CHOSE to do the same thing... and FOR THE REST OF ETERNITY, ITS EVE AND THE SNAKES FAULT?!? In the words of Riley Freeman, "At what point does personal responsiblity play a factor?"

People want SOMEONE, other than themselves of course, to BLAME... WHY? So THEY CAN PLAY THE VICTIM!!! So who's tricking who exactly?

It Ain't Trickin If You Got It.... FREE WILL that is... So take some personal responsiblity for a change and stop letting manipulative people bend you to their whims. Dr Wade Noble defines POWER as the ability to define someone's reality and have them ascribe to it as if it was their own... THAT'S POWERFUL!!!

So DARE to ask the hard questions...

...AND DON'T LET ANY MAN OR WOMAN DEFINE WHO YOU ARE!!! That is work for YOU and your CREATOR because NO ONE ELSE is worthy! So question them all. Because as I have said before, before you can OVERstand (see the big PICTURE), you must UNDERstand (see its ROOTS)...

...until next time...

PEACE AND BLESSINGS
