Life is a game not meant to be won but to be played for the play’s sake. But many are the fools who think the game’s a race; who become the leaders in it – not by effort, knowledge nor passion but simply by blocking the way so no one else can get by! And these bullies would make you think that life can only be played by the idiotic rules they make – and make – and make some more thus hoping to hide their greed and ignorance. And so, sadly, it becomes for most: the great gift of life held in contempt; earth and humanity existing as thralls to the vexing absurdities; the murderous greed of market-minded entropic minds (otherwise known as the rich and powerful). There is a way to beat these arrogant fools: play the game as it were your own play it in wide open fields under the sun and rain; allow it to develop its own tempo – to create its own cadence: Know it is an endless dance. If others would compete with you in it; if they would make new rules insisting its how the game must be played, find another field, another corner of earth: play there with other friendly hearts. And when you are tired of the game? Smile or laugh, and say goodbye then just move on - the Cosmos is a big place after all and every hedgerow hides another field. |
