Being an adult requires you to sometimes discount belief systems that you may have previously held. When you know better, you do better. The latter is not my own words. Look into it.

Words.

Words have power. And so does the absence of them.

Words, exist in texts.

However, it is interesting to me that if a book of text exists, and has existed for some time – there is a reason for it.

If a person goes so far so as to say that a legitimate book of text is meant to stand for an ideal, within said tribe or understanding: one may substantiate as this then, as truth to a people.

However, a belief is ones own, and ones own to carry. It does not mean that all people have to hold it, and it most certainly should not be forced on others.

In regards to the Inner Child, many have spoken on this concept. While we may lack accrimonial knowledge, as to how to grow sometimes we must recognize why we grow.

It is not by force, and it is not by logic itself – but rather what our knowledge base proccludes on over to us.

There is a state of exemplary knowledge that a person may go through and understand, and it is unfortunate that others are brought through this proclivity.

This is not a topic for Old men.

This is for the Middle aged men. Where have we gone to? Where are we going?

Will they continue to deceive? Or will they not?

I have chosen, with my free-will, not to deceive with what I know.

Though I recognize how systems work, almost to the minutae, I care to provide the healing. Or, as one would say metaphorically, apply Gillead balm.

Unfortunately, an individual who has caused the injury, is rarely the one to heal it.

I though, recognize that a person can turn from their way, and at most cauterize the wound.

To recognize that you were the source of injury, is a difficult thing. First, it must be acknowledged, that you were the one in error, and therefore understand that you are not the most ample one to heal it.

You cannot stay in the same place you were, otherwise the injury cannot be healed.

No. You must put yourself in the Third person, preponderantly, Omniscient, to recognize what both the injury is, and how you will heal it.

Acknowledge the facts of your plight Son, then work accordingly with your team to fix it.

In recognizing my inner child, I have come to the conclusion that it is required to come to terms with this fact. Why would I have acted in the way I did? What non-stoic absolutism did anger hold sway with  was not recognized or understood within said nervous system? How could a man of knowledge falter from such a cause?

And can he rise despite repute, and public disclaim? What happens when we think of things in the Third person, outside of what others may think, say, or do? And furthermore – how can we educate others outside of that mental coral?

That is the subject of my inner child that I seek to resolve, outside of some Freudian Oedipal complex.

That is the subject of: Honor.

Being a man of honor is the man of the hour. Asiatic countries understand this.

But a person’s character is most noted when they take a stand for the right thing.

Now I hear MLK’s words, “the time is always right to do what is right.” The quicker the better. If you’re on the wrong bus, don’t stay on it. Otherwise you’ll go further in the wrong direction.

That, for all it’s worth is worth noting that my actions have been very child-like. And despite this irony, well I’m willing to admit it.

    An eye opener. MLK, living today would probably caution us by saying when we know better, we should do better. The thing about perfection is that it can go either way. Like being a perfect goof up.
