What Do You Think Will Happen? |
|
Edited on Sat Dec-20-03 04:44 PM by A-Schwarzenegger
if you can't go to sleep my dear soul for tonight what do you think will happen if you pass your night and merge it with dawn for the sake of heart what do you think will happen if the entire world is covered with the blossoms you have labored to plant what do you think will happen if the elixir of life that has been hidden in the dark fills the desert and towns what do you think will happen if because of your generosity and love a few humans find their lives what do you think will happen if you pour an entire jar filled with joyous wine on the head of those already drunk what do you think will happen go my friend bestow your love even on your enemies if you touch their hearts what do you think will happen --Rumi

4. You know the story of the Tar Baby? |
|
Hope that's not too unPC. I was raised on Uncle Remus. It's impossible to get involved at all, with even the purest funniest intentions, without getting tar all over your sparkling dickey. And for what? It's this uuuurrrrrrrge to say something in the midst of the brouhaha, thinking it will lighten or calm the ecology of the place, or educate or enlighten or just plain straighten out, but always hidden in every message is some little hook meant to tear a little flesh too that just adds to the ball of bile and keeps it a rolling. And then you stop and think, what for? What mind is being changed in there? Maybe one post in a hundred is really more light than heat. Are people even really trying to change minds and influence voters, or is it nothing but trying to wound the other guy like you've been wounded and yet nobody acts like nothing hurts and has no effect whatsoever! All that vitriolic firepower wasted both ways on the utterly invulnerable!

5. Yeah, it is kinda pointless, isn't it? |
|
I don't think those folks want help - they just want to seek and destroy. Let them have their battles, the rest of us will stay calm and wait it out, picking up the pieces when it's over.
