THE SOCIAL DYNAMICS OF 'UNFRIENDED': They don't teach street in schools

TAKE IT EASY. SMILE KID,  IT CAN'T POSSIBLY HURT 


This is a comment in response to an interesting infographic and article I read on the Huffingtonpost,

         I was reflecting on 2011, my relationships in particular. I wanted to share this….. It doesn’t matter if you are a child, an adolescent or a grown man, else where in the world there is no 911, no justice, real safety or effective law and plenty of corruption instead of cops and courts, all sorts of hate you can’t imagine but you have to imagine it and feel it before it arrives.. just to be able to survive and stay ahead of the game. Apart from exacting needed or loving justice, Anger that owns, consumes and controls is pretty much self defeating, useless and meaningless; an ugly thing that feeds of the mind and the heart that it dwells and preys upon. I personally feel that by relieving someone of the object of their anger, prejudice or hate, I’m doing them a big favor, saving them their precious energy and time. As nice as I’ve tried to be and have always been to my true friends and acquaintances, life has toughened around my soft interiors. But I’m glad that I did my best this year to shrink my fb block list, sadly it’s seen as many names as my friend list perhaps even more and I do overview it from time to time.


I state this without conceit but with honesty and sincere transparency, this year I have been resolute, kind and as understanding as possible to those who have been more irrational to me beyond hate. I thank God for that. At times I worry about the emotional health of those who engage in hate. To be entirely honest like my family and my close friends already know, hate, it doesn't really affect me, I guess I’m sort of immune to it, used to it and I understand it all too well. Trust me, this, what you see in the article above is nothing, this here is like paradise, a piece of cake and a glass of wine, a gentle slap on the face like a fly that flies away…..The world is volatility and turbulence personified, like I said things you can’t imagine. And So,

AVOID ANGER AT ALL COSTS, AVOID SUCCUMBING TO IT, DON'T LET IT OWN YOU OR DISRUPT YOUR DAYS. LET IT BE, LET IT PASS, ACCEPT IT FOR WHAT IT IS. THERE ARE VERY FEW MEN WHO CAN TAME IT, CHANNEL IT OR HAVE THE STRENGTH OR THE AUTHORITY TO CONTROL IT BY ITS HORNS. ANGER IS A JOKE, A SMALL TRICKY TRAP OF A DEMON TO BE LAUGHED AT. AVOID IT FOR THAT IS THE ONLY REAL VICTORY YOU CAN EVER HAVE OVER IT. SMILE INSTEAD, FOR THAT IS THE BEGINNING OF LOVE…… FORGIVE IN YOUR HEARTS, MOVE ON, DO THE RIGHT THING, RESPECT AND LOVE FREELY AND UNCONDITIONALLY. MAKE THIS LIFE BEAUTIFUL AND PLEASANT. MAKE YOUR RESOLUTIONS IN THE COMING YEAR AND STICK TO IT. TRY, TRY AND KEEP TRYING, VICTORY IS EASY FOR THOSE WHO PERSIST THROUGH TRIALS AND TRIBULATIONS.

Don't worry about it, grow and cull your lists if you have to. The old facts of life still apply :)


" Life is all about quality and not quantity. Value it in yourselves and others. It takes time, patience and hard lessons to recognize, realize, rethink, reprioritize and redefine yourself both inside and out. "


Wishing You PEACE, HAPPINESS, GOOD FRIENDS & LOVE,
