Extremes

The year 2012 is about balance. It is about combining the yin and the yang. It is not about extremes. It is about finding the good in the bad and the bad in the good. It is not about going on and on about the same point, nor resulting to violence. It is about making sense, teaching, and sharing. It is about knowing when to walk away. You cannot have a battle of wits with an unarmed person, so why try? Some people are so ingrained in their insanity they look anywhere and every where to prove a point.When even that goes to the extreme, we have people who kill others, including themselves to try to make a point.

This quote is about politics, but it doesn't apply to just politics:

“Extremes to the right and to the left of any political dispute are always wrong.”
― Dwight D. Eisenhower

There are people today who try to convince us that things that are not "right" in any way shape or form, for anyone , is actually good for all, as they like it. They live strange lives, usually unsuccessful , unhappy, and alone. Cursing corporate America for not allowing them to have a good job ,when it is either their lack of knowledge and skills or a personality that no one wants to put up with, that keeps them from being financially successful. They are without a romantic partner, and usually have been most of their lives.No one wants to stay around them for more than 10 minutes.  They aren't in a lull, they are in a drought. They have some acquaintances, but no real friends. Some people may use them and then move on from them, but never accept them. And they want to tell the world what to do and think. They are usually extremists.

People who do things like bomb market squares have no real life experience. They have no reality check because no one says "wake up and smell the coffee" to them.We are here to teach, and that sometimes means saying to the person who is acting irrationally "you are acting like a jerk". Why are people so afraid to say something? Two things , fear of retribution, and popularity. This isn't a popularity contest. He who ides with the most friends doesn't win. He who does the most good in life does. He who learns the most does. He who doesn't get stuck does. He who gives 100% everyday , does.

Those same people also win at life. They get to do things, go places, have new experiences. They get to have real friends who help them when they need it, and they rarely need it.

When you go to extremes, you violate everything that is in Universal energy. You don't have to be a religious extremist to do this, but if your mind is made up and closed tight about anything , you run the danger of becoming an extremist. There are people who allow their beliefs and habits to rule their lives, they are slaves to them.

When you see someone going overboard , say something, and say it loud and clear or they won't hear you. Then when they still won't get it, walk away.

The world is not black and white, so there can be no extremes, the world is grey. It is a little of this and a little of that. It is the yin and the yang.  It is not religious fanatic, nor total lack of a supreme being. It isn't even Republican nor Democrat (of which I am neither...I hate politics). It isn't the rich vs the poor. All that is easy excuses. We all live in the same world. So how is it that some are abundant and others are not? It isn't just one group's influence on the world like "rich people" , "abortion doctors" , "Muslim extremists" . They don't change or effect your world . They don't make you live in a certain income bracket, have a certain education, or opportunities, make you have a happy day or not. As much as you want someone to blame it on, it isn't them. Who is it? Look in the mirror.

Everyone , every day choose what day they will have. We all have things that happen....good and bad, each day. Each and every day. How we handle it and our attitude towards it, is what makes us draw in more positive energy or more negative energy. Being extreme just draws in extreme and unbridled energy that in and of itself is destructive.

There are no "good" extremes. Extremes are bad for all of us.
Learn, research and grow, and stay out of extremes , it will only limit you.
Meanwhile, do unto others.....
