Victor or Villain




"One of the greatest regrets in life is being what others
would want you to be, rather than being yourself."
Kilroy J. Oldster

No matter how challenging life becomes, we must dig deeply into our lovely selves, recalling times of great strength. There needs to be a little shimmering of hope, a small beckoning light to encourage positive movement forward.

When we find ourselves kind and open, we may also find ourselves sorely used.  We may participate in a game of life unknowingly that other players are manipulating from a deceptive level.  If we find our selves hood winked, we must accept the portion of responsibility we invested and let all else go.

There is no real comfort in placing blame or shame, as those who would dupe us do not operate from the same playing field.  They are led by ego focusing on capture, control, and consume; while we are simply enjoying the exchange.  Our rewards are self-respect, integrity, and taking the higher road.
