treather69's blog post - Believe What you Will

I’m so tired of not being able to say what I want to say. I agree that society needs rules to survive but for those who have the ability to open there minds and change perspective, they are special and few in between. When a kindred spirit touches you there is nothing like it, the power of that person, when united with others of the same philosophy, they are a force to be dealt with.

Who do you trust though, who do you fear, why fear? I myself am fortunate to have found a few good people in which I have confidence and have confided in. However it is challenging at times for me. I listen to those few and we may not always see eye to eye but I truly respect their opinions and beliefs. It is one of the few ways we learn. In these past couple months I have learned that it takes a truly strong person to go against the grain but it can also be a lonely process as well.

Now there are some who will read this and think, oh it is just another Idealist yammering about things that he has yet to experience. My age is not that young but yet it is as well. True I have so much more to learn but my spirit is old.

I am going on the advice of one who shares an open mind and holding myself in check at the moment but it is tough to do so. I thank those who have listened to me and have advised me on different matters.

I believe that we have fallen victim to rules of society and have conformed a little to much. There need to some level of conformity but we must recognize when we need to challenge it.

My only hope is that my strength will allow me to continue what I believe in and that I will not fall victim to all the rules.

I leave you with this question, When you think that it is the right time, will you still think it is the right time 10, 20, 30 years from now. You can’t be impulsive all of the time, but you can feel and knowing when to follow the impulse and when to restrain is a difficult challenge. Master that and you will have an inkling of an Idea of how to live.

After all it is our feelings that give us the strength to fight and that has given humankind reason to challenge beliefs and alter them.
