What Do You Think???

Understand that there's a beginning to understanding. Not all of us are awake. 

I'm understanding that many of us focus so hard on finding what we want in others, that we sleepily mistake it for finding what we need in ourselves.

I'm not at peace while surrounded by outside voices. Especially those belonging to people who only take away from my 'self'. 

SO... here it is:     The only way to find our 'selves' is to be without influence... to be alone. 

And in order to find what I look for, I walk away. 

To be alone is not to be lonely. To be circled by misinformation, expectation and judgment is not a part of life. It is what we have come to passively accept.

We don't all read the words written on the same page with the exact same meaning, but what is most important is how we react.   What is important is to share our perspective while learning of others, to protest, to use our voices collectively rather than pointing fingers amongst ourselves, placing shame where what truly lies, is actually misunderstanding. 

My hope is for people to wake up, to be able to shift focus from the smoke mirrors, puppet shows and false promises, to the bigger picture; for people to realize that while divided amongst ourselves, we can stand for nothing.
