~Confucian See-Saw~

Post by mtmynd » August 26th, 2020, 2:23 pm

So easy to find voice in anger,
so difficult to speak in love,
for love transcends the mind
- distorted and confused -
angry with others that do not

U N D E R S T A N D

what they spew forth wrecklessly
without regard for feelings
that others find comfort in

R E A L I Z I N G

Love is beyond Mind
and speaks with acts
- compassion
- giving
- smiling
- embracing
the beauty within :
- rising above
- logic
- reasoning
- rationalization

Treasure both Love and Mind
keeping them in balance,
a Confucian See-Saw,

breaking space in rhythm of being
exposing that which desires
the light of eternal presence.

love is the missing ingredient
and certainly agree that balance is crucial
there is a segment of the population that seems
to be devoid of love and mind
it's as if a martian ray zapped them away
Q' anon ?.....really ?.....child sex ring run by the Dems ?
Lizard people ?
their minds have taken a turn for the worse
and instead of love being front and center, Hate
has come to the forefront
can we fix this ?
damn if I know, but it don't look good
the death of empathy is the birth of barbarism
