STEP 19/64 TO LIVE NONVIOLENTLY

19) Acceptance – “Resentment, fear, criticism, and guilt cause more problems than anything else,” says Louise Hay. Today, choose not to judge yourself (your looks, your capabilities, your expression). See yourself as unique, loving, capable and bright!

Who knows, it may start gettin more better for some, I just don’t think its gonna get much better for me, maybe this flu will take me out, this just might be what sets me free!
Benevolent noun
1) desire to do good to others; goodwill; charitableness: to be filled with benevolence toward one’s fellow creatures.
2) an act of kindness; a charitable gift.
3) a forced contribution to the sovereign.
I’m a simple man, I’ve ben called a lot of things, a trouble maker, an idiot, hell, I’ve been called simpleton, yes, i have my moments, but get this…, those powers that be, I just can’t seem to break this stranglehold they got on me, its a fucking homographic homonym, I get it, benevolence in America, ya just forget definition number – 1), number – 2), Simply put I think, but what do I know, no different than ingredients listed on food labels, what matters most, goes first, what matters least, list last. Ok, I get it, nothing really ever changes, just move along to defination number – 3), we are still a benevolent society, its just we’re living in the bizzaro world today. Move along, Everything’s upside down anyway, “your still resisting,” something I’m so sick of hearing, damn I’m tired, ya know maybe I think I’ll just mellow out a bit, but ya know what damnit, i cant help it, I still gotta resist going along with all this. I was talking with this young kid the other day, I do that sometimes, he had a couple kids. For him to do his job, to feed his family, he holstered a gun, he worked two jobs keeping a roof over his family’s head. A man just doing what he’s gotta do, he wasn’t a cop, I asked whether he got involved in, had any thoughts on politics, he said ain’t nothing he could do about that, I told him this “it’s your world kid, don’t give up the fight”, I told him ” kid… ya got no benifits, your making a couple bucks over minimum wage, you put your life on the line…, for what…, your putting your family at risk, and your not bothered by this?”
