The simplicity of change

Do you think that life is made of candy and flowers and sunshine? Or is it made of iron and steel and fire? Are you more inclined to believe humans are self absorbed, disingenuous asses, or good-natured yet, scarred, victimized children trapped in adult’s worries and fears?
Do you believe in the idea that people are inherently good, that we all have darkness within us, burning to get out, or that we are ignorant fools easily swayed by unseen forces of doom that we must shun and fear in order to keep ourselves honest?
Personally, I think we think about what goes on in others' head’s way too much. I’d like to further understand my own mind and consciousness and with that understanding, help others. I’d like to be a light that shines on possibilities that others might grasp, so they may find their bliss and move forward in their lives, successfully. I’d love to think that within us all is a raging demon and a glorious angelic force, not foes but friends.. equal and vital, and necessary to existence. That succumbing to the sins of our demons gives us knowledge and power and that little tilt on the corner of our mouths as we smirk with secret knowing and our angel feels compassion for all around us, fearing nothing and guiding us toward our true selves.
I am forever the catalyst and will gladly lay the stonework across rivers and light candles in dark hallways for those who are willing to travel.
I don’t really pass judgment, I just try to help. Okay, so maybe I pass judgment. LOL… but I try not to be too mean about it.
Sometimes.
Okay, if you’re really stupid and doing nothing in your life but reacting and don’t actually use your brain, I’ll probably be really mean about it.
No one should be allowed to have a brain and a soul and do nothing with it. If you’re going to be a victim your whole life, you might as well shoot yourself in the face and get it over with.
Seriously, there’s nothing worse than some poor sap who would rather talk about how horrible their life is while they do NOTHING to fix it.
So you have a choice; do you choose to be a victim or a hero? Do you save yourself, or wait for someone to rescue you from your tower?
That is a question only you can answer, but make no mistake; you choose your reality. If you aren't happy with the answer, change it. It really is as simple as it sounds. All you have to do is jump and instinct will do the rest for you.
