do You still belong in the herd of men.

The men who gathered on Galileo, who poured Socrates a drink, Who whipped the backs of slaves,Who burn crosses in old womens yards. Those Who band together to do the wrong thing to not stand alone while doing what is right. There are so many out there today and no one can say when faced with the decision of it again they will not fall, after all it would depend on the circumstances and the consequences of the risk. Bottom line what’s at stake. You are the stake every time you choose conformity for comfort over confrontation.

I know you have another opinion but that is your way, The standard you hold yourselves up to. I do not have a place to judge you But I do have a responsibility to discern weather or not I should behave as such or how to react to it when it involves me. It is my right to engage or disengage at will with any human being alive. No one speaks for me save my self and I will do that any time, any way, and in any context that I choose. YOU CHOOSE TO LISTEN OR NOT!

You choose just like I do who you are. With every word, every choice, every decision you make and guess what even if you snap out and get angry and kill me. I will still only ever have to deal with the consequences of who I am. I still wont be held responsible for all that misplaced anger you hall around boomeranging at others, only for it to come to rest more heavily right back where it started.

Wow I feel like a million times better. Expressing my emotions here has made me feel absolutely wonderful. Thank you for reading have a great day. As always just a little nugget to wrap your mind around. You know I thank god for designing my mental process in a way I can find lessons in anything he shows me even if I am too emotional to see them as they occur. Cognitive brain function has to be the greatest gift to man. People say it’s hope or love or Faith but can any of those occur without the capacity to learn them.

‘You are the stake every time you choose conformity for comfort over confrontation.’

The irony of hearing the religious useing such verses really makes my day, thank you.
