Fools will welcome your affection.
Most will tolerate your existence.
Few will question your truth.
The wise will accept your contradictions.
Be true to yourself, or be true to no one.
If you are untrue to even one, you are untrue to at least two — the other and yourself.
Knowing truth is knowing what it means to be alone.
Reality is not to scale.
Understanding is partial.
Perception is skewed.
Experience is biased.
Let everything without words say everything that words cannot say.

In aphorism, proverb, rumination on 20120516 at 23:59
Without an outrage, a wrong is not a scandal.
Impatience is the supernatural disappointment of mortal expectations.
Rome wasn’t built in a day, but Earth… was?
Who imagine forgiveness, realize peace. Who imagine revenge, realize war.
Imagine a society that accepts its responsibility to support each person as equally as it expects each person to respect its rule. Imagine if just one person supported a single other person, regardless of their imperfect past, embracing them for who they have the potential to be. Imagine a society that can forgive each other, that we may realize a future together.
To become independent is to be freed.
Independence is a form of freedom. Dependence is a form of captivity.
The independent must collaborate, the dependent must delegate.
The guilty act defensively, the guiltless need not act -they are defenseless.
Who is without guilt is without need for defense.
The fool argue a truth with a falsity.
Calling a piece of shit “a piece of shit” is not to be negative, it is to acknowledge truth, to refuse judgment.
To compliment where an insult is due is to refuse the truth.
Who deny the truth fool themselves.
Being me is the greatest challenge I could ever face -when I do that, everything else is a cinch. When I don’t, everything is a task.
The greatest deception, the greatest revelation -is of the self.

In aphorism, proverb on 20120513 at 23:57
bystander:
noun; one who stands by [something], and thus condones [something], even supports [something].
A foolish argument is grounded in a foundation of desperation.
The fool praise the light, but live by the darkness.
The only way to fight evil is to not join it, not contribute to it.
The fool trust not those without intention to convert, confusing conversion for conviction.
The fool ask ‘How to conquer those who threaten us?’, not facing the reality of their contribution.
Who is without a weapon is feared only by the fool.
Defenseless, the fool become defensive.
Defense, by any other name, is offense.
Where some fool are critical, other fool are insecure.
Where two side against one, is strength only but numbers, is weakness only but elsewhere.
The fool seek not to hear, with a defense of listening.
The fool have ears, but do not hear; have eyes, but do not see; have hearts, but do not feel.
Resolution led by a moderator is not a resolution of two.
The fool don’t the best they can, the wise do the best they can’t.
Seize wisdom from the depths, net ignorance from the shallows.
The fool adjudge assumptions, the wise consider intentions.
Criticism that negates compliments exposes false compliments; criticism that complements compliments reveals true compliments.
Forever to be trusted, are the fool and their fallacy.
Sooner an apology to be forgiven than the innocent to be spared.
The fool hear with ears that deceive.
Where fault lies, a defense is readied. Where understanding lies, an offense is unnecessary.
Do plumbers have pipe dreams?
Sooner a parent to side with the other than with truth.
Wisdom is not without extent.
Perspective and understanding are but two sides of a multi-dimensional reality.
Concern falls as criticism to fool ears.
The fool have a defense for every criticism, an offense for every defense, a criticism for every offense.
Who is fool enough to fight logic with illogic, falls victim to his own weapon.
What time does not heal, memory must forgive.
No one judges more or less than the next -some admit it, others deny it.
A poor defense is as good as no defense.
The fool fail to fathom the color beyond text, black and white.

In aphorism, proverb on 20120510 at 23:57
The fool’s truth is not truth.
Trust takes time.
Trajectory with misdirection, is a truth twisted.
The fool share their trash, hide their treasures.
Exclusion will betray you in time; inclusion is loyal, now and forever, to you and to all.
Priorities are more than hopeful words, they are actions, our past actions. In the history of our beings, can we view our priorities.

In aphorism, proverb, question on 20120509 at 23:58
A fish out of water is the first to evolve.
I’d rather that you are loyal to the truth, than to me. For I will change, and you may not change with me. But if I am loyal to the truth, and also are you loyal, then always will I find your loyalty near.
A half truth is a whole falsity.
There is a war between the ego and the superego that started before time itself.
If you cannot do it right, is doing it wrong better than delaying doing it or simply not doing it?
Only in the midst of hardship, does our true character.
The fool fail to see the light -lo, they are blind even to the darkness that envelops them.
Light is born in the darkness, though it is not of the darkness.
One minute, the fool in darkness; the next minute, the wise enlightened.
The fool are not below wisdom, the wise are not above foolery.

One’s past reflects one’s priorities, just as one’s priorities will forecast one’s future.
Erase prejudice; rewrite perception.
Others’ perceptions of you do not define you.
Truth is not a trend.
Beware the thief who steals with your consent.
Where growls a sheep, feigns a wolf.
Delusion is a choice.

《Sink or Swim》
This is the story of how a child, a boat, a voice, and a choice found each other:
On some days, the sun shines and the wind blows.
It is on these days that boats float and children dream.
On the breath of the wind, billowing white clouds moved with silent excitement across blue skies and gazed deeply over still blue waters.
Far down below, a Child found a boat, and soon found herself afloat in the boat. But for shame, as the child would soon also find herself in a boat with a leak.
The stillness of the water slowly, but surely, greeted the shell with its silent entrance.
And so the Child did what only the Child could do, and that was to lift the water out again to the expanse of the blue.
Stymied, the Child thought, “I just wanted to go for a sail, but instead, I find myself with water to bail.”
A Voice said to the child, “It seems that would make you a plumber, not a sailor.”
The truth in these words so captivated the Child’s mind that the Child didn’t stop to question from where the voice came, but continued moving the water.
With a sigh, the Child replied, “‘Tis true -but I haven’t a choice, have I? I can only hope to stay afloat. How can I even dream of sailing this boat?”
“Oh, but you do and you can!” said the Voice. “You do have the choice to go overboard or to give up your dream. But, either way, you must abandon the naiveté with which you first boarded this boat.”
In silence, the child continued to empty the water from the proa back into the blue.
“Shall you jump ship and learn to swim? Or shall you give up your dream?”
The Voice waited.
The rhythmic sound of water leaving the boat ceased.
The Child peered into the water, leaning over the edge of the boat. And for the first time, the Child caught sight of her own face in the undulating mirror.
But in doing so, the Child had rocked the boat, to the point that more water threatened to claim its whole. And without thinking, the Child quickly returned to the center of the boat, seeking balance and stability.
The rocking slowed, and the Child at last spoke. “I must lead with my brain, but I must also follow my heart.”
Splash! The boat rocked once more.
And the silence that ensued was followed only by a ripple so large that spread so far, that its waves reached well beyond the limits of her shore.
