What are you passionate about? The wicked see such things as a means of entrapment. Be wary, lest your energies be turned to unsavory purposes.
Evil loves to prey on what others hold dear. The stronger the emotion, the easier it is to manipulate. It is sad that love can so swiftly be turned to hate.
Those who care expect nothing in return. Expectation will invalidate the best of intentions. Starting on that path leads only to a downward spiral.
Passion is the fuel by which we kindle a fire. It can lead to the accomplishment of great things. The outside is determined by what happens within.
The ones who wish to have will find themselves bound. That which we desire is the leash to pull us along. These chains have truly been made by us.
To be free we must release all our captives. Otherwise, the ties that bind will hold us fast. In restraining others, we also tether ourselves.
I notice a pretty strong strain of survival in these blogs. Survival isn't the point. Death is life in a broken state. You are a better person to be a zealot to your own cause and just go for broke.
ReplyDeleteThe problem with that is you tend to end up broken. In order to make things better, you must first survive whatever state they are in. Dying is easy, but living is hard.
DeleteDesire only that which you create, seeking outside sources only ensures your bondage. Realizing we already have all we need within is the first step in breaking the chains.
ReplyDeleteBeing self-sufficient definitely provides a defense against the wicked. They feed on desperation, and delight in using one's desires against them. It is best to avoid their charms altogether.
