Beware Of Distractions

 

"He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls." - King Solomon

Of causes, revolutionary ideologies and disruptive movements, there shall never be an end.

If you're unable to handle the wind and waves of second hand rhetoric; unable to discern that which is pertinent and that which is better ignored, you might end up with a distraction on your hands and mislabel it as 'Purpose'.

Not every issue that tugs at your emotion deserves an entire movement... 

And even if all agitations were valid, not every movement has your name on it.

The hands that must not be seen would rather you took up arms and fought their war whilst believing you are expressing your own free will.

But what is will without wisdom; knowledge without context; and furthermore I wonder, what is intelligence without discernment?

He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls. 

Beware the Wizard... 

Be the Wizard.

- J.O.
