Thinking No Longer Required

The obstacles the once stood in the doorway of our individual success continues to obstruct our collective paths toward progress and equality. There are many people within politics, organizations and various media personalities who essentially are standing in that doorway of progress. But our biggest deceiver is ourselves. We’re too busy lying to ourselves and trying to be apart of something or seeking approval to stop and think about what it is we’re doing or saying.

Remembers the old saying that “You may be able to trick people some of the times, but you can’t trick them all of the time“? Well that doesn’t mean that they won’t try to trick you all of the time.

Who’s doing the thinking, you or media? Regardless of whom you choose to be, when you truly embrace love, honesty and truth, your thoughts, attitude and relations change.

I’ve resisted responding to the ignorant claims of the R.N.C., (Rush, Newt & Cheney). A wise elderly woman who was a client of mine many years ago gave me this advice to deal with a few people that wanted to argue about the most pointless things. She told me, “If you stop feeding the stray cat it will eventually go away.” I understood that as saying that I’m fueling ones desire for attention and relevance by continuing an endless conversation with them after points have been made.

So why should I dignify the ridiculous claims from these individuals and others who play the same game? Make your point and continue on. It’s OK to seek consensus or help people better understand each other, but I’ve found it to be too taxing to continue to debate with anyone who only want to disagree.

A conscious mind is a reasoning mind. If you expose yourself to irrational and/or deceptive thoughts or actions as true, it will soon become your truth. Guard yourself with reason, wisdom, logic and ethical truth. Continuing to employ whatever is said to you must be true, because you heard it on the radio, read it in a newspaper or on the internet or seen it on TV philosophy will keep you on the fringe of reality. You’ll find yourself making ridiculous claims without validating the facts with reality.

Consideration, logic and empathy are no longer required in our society today. Whether in politics, religion, education or relationships. All many of us do is watch, read, listen and repeat is needed. Think about what you’re saying, analyze what you project and demonstrate concern and consideration before reacting.

Thanks my thought, idea and suggestion for today. Enjoy.

Let the MF Burn

a2a_linkname=”TI&S: Let the M.F. Burn”;a2a_linkurl=”http://timvalentine.wordpress.com/2009/04/17/letthemfburn/”;

Watching the Republican Party these days is like watching the house across the street burn. You feel a sense of lost cause someone you know are displaced and you feel helpless because you tried to help them save the house, but only one member of the family is willing to speak to you and the others are pulling them back into the burning house to die. All you can do is yell instructions for them to get out.

You have compassion for them, because you know what it’s like to have your house burn. But what do you do when they just don’t want to listen to anything you say or your help. You cut the water off, take your water hose back to your house and watch the MF burn.

I absolutely give up trying to talk to a contingency of individuals who fail to embrace logic and reality. The hypocrisy of many Republicans and/or Conservatives for those who don’t want to associate themselves with the GOP is beyond me. I’m glad that you had your little protest, although the same people would call me un-American or un-patriotic when I protest, but I don’t require your approval to validate me, nor do you need my approval.

The question is how do you reconcile your conscience against the documented and reported acts while your leaders and party was in power? To consistently blame Democrats for all the problems in the world as if you had nothing to do with it is absurd.

The disingenuous outrageous claims of socialism are weak. You don’t realize what you’re saying or doing. Just Google it or find a dictionary. Go to those institutions of socialism called public libraries.

Why should I continue to waste my time reasoning and speaking to you as if you can comprehend what I’m talking about? History is repeating itself and you are on the wrong side. Look at the protests, what’s in common with it and those we can recall during the 1950’s & 60’s? Let me help you, because it’s not just limited to race. In fact it has nothing to do with race its ideology.

Heed the words I’m saying to you, this will come back to bite you when you least expect it and you will see what I’m saying to you is true and fair. For the sake of sanity, please evaluate your logic and reasoning; cross reference it to history, philosophy, theology and civics. You have lost all grips on reality and the party and its ideology is driving over a cliff. Tell me how that’s working for ya.

To the moderate conservatives, please save yourself. The roof is on fire and these people just want the M.F. to burn. So let the mother f—–s burn.

Honestly, I’m sorry for your lost, but you are the ones who are going to have to rebuild this party to what it’s suppose to be. The group in there now ideology is fuel by the gasoline of despair and aimlessness, the fire is the lack of sophistication to embrace reality. Get out while you can or before they bring you down with them.

This is not Vietnam, but the time has come where your silence is betrayal. I’ve tried to speak up and to speak out, but you may have better luck than I had.
