Set your mind against any earthly force that would claim authority over you.
You're ruled by people that are willing to do worse things to you than you are to them. Until you're not.
Stop asking permission.
Get right with God.
Realize that God made what you have and see and need. You're made of something; if you're not willing to kill for what you're made of, make yourself of something closer to you.
You're made of soil, and you get to choose which soil. Put weight on that decision.
Deserve the organisms that die to fuel your life: whether they be plant, animal, or microbe.
Just because you have a thought, doesn't mean it's worth action.
Three things cannot be sustainably resisted; God, Nature, and the Market. They rule over all, and they outlast all, whether an individual or group recognizes them or not. They exist. They cannot be beat, and if you're right by all, neither can you. Not even in death.
Everything ends; not everything is defeated. Death is not defeat. Death is the end. Defeat is a life poorly and baselessly lived.
Make your peace with death. Live openly and proudly. Live well and right so that others will see and know and be drawn in.
There are parts of you that must die. Realize and embrace that fact, and do not be defeated by subversion.
For some things, there is neither a time nor a place. Put those things off.
What is Right is more than man. Man cannot make it or change it.
If you are right, don't compromise.
Abandon scarcity. Seek abundance. You won't have to look far.
Live for something bigger than yourself. Spirit, family, network, find a reason that you answer to that's steadfast. If something fails you, it wasn't steadfast.
Nobody has a like mind to you if you don't share your mind. If you're alone, you fail. If you don't talk, you're not furthering the truth.
Some thoughts and ideas. I'm in a place lately. Having to reconcile some parts of my life, as always. It's not a dark place. It's a sincere place.
Posting for posterity. BRB.
