When people are
unified in opinion as though it were some fact, I tend to presume that any
opposing view is fact, should I find reason to oppose it.
Dm.A.A.
Any thing of colossal
significance will not be confined to only one solution.
Dm.A.A.
People do not
want to be Happy; they want to be Right.
Dm.A.A.
That I was born
not into some Paradise but a terrible trap where I must fend for survival as
all die around me: that I can stand. What I cannot stand is to be a direct
contributor to the wreckage. At that point, I would sooner renounce the
problems of the World than to entertain the vanity of a solution. I would help
only by chance or as a pastime, waiting to succumb. I’d put the problems of the
World behind me and put Reality Itself before me, for it would become a Game of
Radiant Imminence rather than a constant strife for power. I would no longer
sacrifice individuals in service to a projected mass. I would be blameless,
living that life that I would have lived in better times, or at least its
closest approximation, thanking God each day for favouring me and doing my best
to honour those two promises I made to my best teachers: to be happy, and if I
must suffer, to do so with dignity. The problems trouble me. But I will not be
preached to as though I have not dwelt on them every day. I will simply find
Joy Inside Myself, for the only Peace of the Heart available is that which is
won not over time in constant battle for a better future, but rather NOW, since
Virtue is its own Reward. I dare not become what I have all ways opposed.
Dm.A.A.
