Perceived by the moral

Of human nature

Sicknesses and wars are alike

How could Human Resources spot bad attitudes during the selection process?

A worm at the core may rot the entire apple. Similarly, an employee with a bad attitude may ruin your business.

(Caveat: ensure your leader fills your heart with love, not hate).

On Christmas, Hanukkah, or other celebrations, but most importantly year round, never forget the seven virtues: Hope, Faith, Justice, Charity, Patience, Kindness and Temperance.

Which virtue do you practice more frequently?

I've arrived at this Age

The inevitable stage of conclusion

The end

Of the seasons of my Life.

Both the Devil and God hold me

In the palm of their hands

As if they were both weighing me

Hesitant about what to do with me

With my Soul

Progress, what is it?

Growth or development, continuous improvement. We found this definition in most dictionaries.

Still, we must be conscious of where we were yesterday and where we are today. Is it better today than yesterday, or are we stuck going nowhere? If our present shows that we're better than yesterday, then we can feel free to envision our future.

Nature takes us from our delusional state and shows us that we are indeed animals, if not in shape in spirit and behaviour. I explore this further in a chapter of my book Interstellar Epiphany, where I expose what influences the nature of man, and among these influences are the animals.

We are what I call “amenable animals.”

Regardless of the geography of where we were born, we are from nowhere until we acquire a conscience.

So, wherever we are, from the moment we acquire a conscience of who we are, we belong to that place geographically and spiritually.

No idea should ever end in the garbage of ideas. If others reject your idea, you don’t discard it. Keep it alive in your heart and mind and give it time; with time, it will grow in the hearts and minds of people.

Grinning, you look at me from a framed photography

Captured pale and naked under the moon in Muskoka

Shining, you are another moon under the moon.

In the solitude of my room, your figure blooms again

And like a flower attracts the hummingbird, and it was me

In that fleeting summer, briefly, my longing attracts you

Before you ask, dream.

Dream what you want to have, what you want to achieve.

Before you ask God, or the Universe, to give you what you want, dream it first.

Dream, and you will receive.

As we disperse our concerns

We search for each other best

As our bodies converge, we live on the verge

On the verge of another verse as our bodies converse

You and I are a poem

A poem in a frame

Nothing comes faster in this life but the grave.

Everything else comes s-l-o-w-l-y.

So, don’t ever hurry for anything.

Did God divide the Earth in pieces to give man a place to live, or did man divide the Earth in pieces to give man a place to die?

God is your shepherd, but you are the shepherd of your dreams. Therefore, keep them under control. Don’t allow your dreams to behave like mountain goats, scrambling around, bouncing, and climbing to the higher peaks in their goal of becoming real. Try to keep them (your dreams) together; they will direct you where and when they will come to fruition. Your dreams, not you, know the way and the time when they will become real.

Sometimes, when facing failure, we want to die, but failure is just a bad dream or, in the worst scenario, a nightmare from which we must wake up. The sooner, the better. Indeed, for all of us who have been in this situation, failing to reach our goals, being rejected, being in debt, with our hopes in our project all cracked, with little or no strength to start again, it is hard to reassess and start again.

The hearts of the fouls are full of greed

And they are also blind

They see no evil in breaking blood bonds

They see no sin

……….

But we, the clear-sighted.

Scanning the ruin of families scattered

Should we not shun this crime

O Krishna?

I sustain that I cannot become an entity by mere reasoning because my desired reality, which conditions by my senses and emotions, limits my reasoning. Therefore, the conscience I acquired through thinking is an illusion. This is even more evident to me when I see how people make decisions, whatever important they are, for they base their every decision on feelings and hopes and seldom on reasoning, for even if they do so, their reasoning shows them a distorted reality.

Lies are like cement. They are a confusing liquid mixture initially, but with time, they solidify. Because of their liquid quality, lies can take any shape, and bridges are built from them over which the unaware masses transit from generation to generation.

It’s either love or hate if one wants to remain human—love or hate but never indifference. Indifference removes humanity from the soul.
