A Voice In The Wilderness of Life.

I am easy going, laid back and tolerant yet you push me to the limit of patience daily.

I speak quietly and try to use words that are informative and descriptive. Words that can put my point of view forward in a persuasive and interesting way. Yet abuse attacks my ears even as I walk the street.

Violence is everywhere I look. Yet the protection I seek can’t be found.
The material things in my life mean nothing when compared to the safety of my loved one’s. Yet the fabric of society is being torn apart.

All colours that I see are vibrant and alive. Black and white are not colours. They are negative imprints on a closed mind waiting to be brought to life when the spectrum of the world is embraced. Embrace the spectrum.

Don’t foist your limited vocabulary on a world that doesn’t want to hear. Look around and listen. Talk with someone not at someone. If you can help one person during the course of your day, then no matter how dull and dreary your day has been. It has not been wasted.

You can start today, tomorrow or the day after. But you must begin.
Peaceful people have not forgotten how to fight. They choose not to unless the cause is just. As a cornered rat will attack, beware the peaceful citizen pushed too far.

Make your life beautiful.
