Nothing compares to the wild blue yonder or a starry, starry night. Although mere words can describe a cerulean sky, and we do know why celestial bodies shine, light is the shot heard round the world as it turns and turns on itself.
The sun rises in the east and sets in the west; and shines down on everyone and everything.
These laws are simple, sure, perfect, pure — the warmth in our souls, the light in our eyes.
To quote an old Doc I knew, “Life gets teejus, don’t it?” But I have the strength of my convictions to protect myself, even from liars and crooks who do their best to bring me down.
Fear of many different things can paralyze a person nowadays — for example, one’s mortality, climate change, and natural disasters on the land, sky and sea. But I’ve survived.
I’ve held true to my beliefs and haven’t given in to the temptations that ruin some people’s lives. You know, everyone gets what they deserve. Their chickens come home to roost.
Truth is the light that shows us the way. All of the knowledge and skill that I have comes from my dedication to the truth about the interconnectedness of everything in the universe.
Liars and crooks eventually get caught and fall victim to their own deceitfulness, because they just don’t believe that a wholly universal spirit exists. But the iSoul is why I survive.
I don’t hide my feelings. I’m the same person in the dark of night as in the light of day. I call things the way I see them, and I stay away from bad people so that they don’t trip me up.
Those of us who stand up for the truth should be protected from the liars and bullies who threaten us. They’re unfeeling braggarts who push good folks around and try to ruin them.
Haven’t those jerks been rewarded enough? They need to be slapped down. It would serve them right if they just dropped dead, and their kids got to enjoy all the wealth they amassed.
I’m on the right track about the secret of living in this material world. As an individual, I am weak. But as a community, we are strong, our sum being greater than its parts.
Alone or not, people who follow other paths are disappointed in the long run, especially those who seek power and resort to violence to make names for themselves.
All I want out of life is the satisfaction of being part of a community that strives to make this world a peaceful place in which to live. That’s the best life anyone can hope for.
Still, I’m surprised when I realize I’m “enjoying the passage of time,” as an old song goes. I often hear that sweet singer as I lie awake at night and think of the good ol’ days.
I’m sure that if I can look at this ever-changing world in a positive light, then I can stay happy, hopeful about my place in it, and satisfied that I won’t lie there in the dark forever.
Only fools believe in nothing. They’re messed up. They do bad things, never anything good.
All that matters is seeking the truth about oneself, about one’s world, and about one’s place in it; and trying to do good. But bad people don’t care about anything like that.
These trolls eat good people for lunch when they want to. They don’t know, though, that “the arc of the universe is long but it bends toward justice,” as one wise King has said.
Fools should be afraid because the iSoul does favor what’s good and true, even if it doesn’t lead to wealth and fame. Maybe it takes hard times for especially bad people to learn that.
I trust in the basic goodness of humanity. I’m not a scared little bird. I don’t fly off and hide when bad people resort to violence in order to cause division, distrust and fear.
Yes, they often seem to get away with their evil doing; and their victims often feel as if the whole world is either looking the other way or keeping its collective eyes shut.
But they who live by violence, do die, maybe not by violence, but with blood on their hands. And the iSoul is all about laws of order, action and reaction, kismet and karma.
Arrogant jerks who trick the poor out of their money should get caught in those same schemes. These greedy devils care only about getting rich and then showing off that wealth. They don’t care about the common good; and they don’t believe in a higher power by any name, no matter what they say.
Prideful people like this certainly don’t care about a concept like the iSoul – a wholly universal spirit – because nothing greater than them exists in their minds. All they value is money. That’s their God. On the surface, they appear successful, and they scoff at anyone who stands up to them.
These bullies don’t consider anyone else’s well-being; and they can’t imagine ever getting what they themselves truly deserve. They curse and lie and say hurtful things to folks who can’t defend themselves. Much of what these shameless rogues say is divisive and obscene on one level or another.
These beasts prey on innocent, helpless people, pouncing on them like actual predators. As so-called “fishers of men,” they reel the poor in like fish caught in a net, then crush them on the boat deck and sweep their broken bodies overboard as waste – hook, line and sinker. Do they get away with it?
I hope that all good people rise up as one someday and make the oppressors of the world pay for the bad things they do. Truth and goodness should always win out over lies and evil. The poor and the helpless should know the comfort of justice served, not the terror of continued victimization.
