Negative Rabbit in the Magic Hat

Constructive methods of communication are a necessary pathway to maintain social rapport and interpersonal relationships.  But everything cannot be based in good karma, there would be no balance to the World and it would just simply fall apart. That is the phenomenon I call the negative rabbit. I have named it so, because it pops out of nowhere and often unwarranted and unnecessarily so.
Ever been in a relationship that was going fine and then one day the honeymoon was over? Yep! People don't get along for extended periods of time without conflict to suddenly, one day, become embroiled in a life or death situation over the empty box of cereal or the last of the orange juice.
Then you get self-proclaimed experts, who yammer on about how it is a deficit of an internal construct that has met destruction through some obscure action and needs to be rebuilt both externally and internally.  Now, my background is in Psychology and I am absolutely an advocate of the many potential uses and the overall validity to the art/science of Psychology. That however, does not mean I endorse quacks, who attempt to do things that they are neither certified nor qualified to do in the name of Psychology.
Given this attention, many people will reflect over personal interpersonal issues and attempt to renegotiate how they do business and with who they do that business with.  Unfortunately, it is deeper than that.
and thats all he wrote folks. Beware of the magic that bares the rabbit from which the negativity springs.  Finally, one word should bring forth your salvation: Magnanimity. Until then, I'll be that.

A Bluesy Wind

Can't stop the rhythm of the World.  Sometimes the air in the atmosphere feels heavier than if the open space were replaced with iron.  Where the appetite is missing simply because of the pressure despite a tremendous hunger brewing in the gut.  As the tears of a burning desire leap with faith from the tip of the cheek to find nothing but a rapid plummet into a rich yet vapid void.  In a manner where life is counted by a measure of heartbeats, with the tips of the inner extremities defining the extent of the pleasure experienced within interaction-able encounters.

The blinking eyes are outside of the time that the heartbeat keeps; illuminating the darkness of memories, to bring light to ideas, that can be held in the hands of the Father of Time.  While paying tribute and praise to the harbinger of life as it is known; Mother Earth where the beauty is defiantly complex.

Blind to the written words on the wall. Environments crumbling beyond the eye. The phoenix burns to be named Lazarus.  However, that light is not willed nor controlled.  Pain makes a beautiful life.

Betrayal & Disrespect

Not only are these resounding indications of how a person views your importance to their world but it also shows what they think of you in an eloquent and divisive action.
Many of us forgive the transgressions of those who mark us with such misfortune as a result of their inadequacies but it is not our place to be condemning, so forgiveness is the only clear route, right?
As far as I've come in my understanding of life, I still do not have the answer to that but I do have my beliefs.
My beliefs are not necessarily the most "politically correct" however I have the reasons for how I believe, especially in regards to respect and trust.
People who betray me and disrespect me fall very low on my consideration list.  The quickest ways to make me an enemy of yours is to commit a violation of either nature.

If the way you live has you feeling like you take too many losses and negligible gain then that lifestyle needs to change.  My lifestyle changes everyday and it won't stop improving until I find the one that fits for me.

Don't let people define you.  Their description of you is different than a definition. To fight a description is insecure and unrealistic as you cannot change who you've been or what you've done but you can change who you will be and what you will do.

To fight a definition is a direct refusal of submittal to a supposed title.  The difference matters a great deal.

Semantics when at the letter of the Law, pragmatics while enforcing it.  The meaning behind words is important.  While the meaning behind the meaning is even more crucial.
