Yesterday I temporarily failed. After someone decided to honk their horn incessantly because they thought I wasn't moving fast enough in my vehicle, I lashed out somewhat to my community chat on FACEBOOK. There is a group page for my town, so I reached out with details, saying I hope this person has a better week first, but secondly offered them a chance to get these hands next time if they see fit.
The comments I got made me realize my failure. I should have left it at just HAVE A BETTER WEEK!
I struggle with the warrior/priest balance within. I AM willing to fight and or die for a worthy cause while at the same time searching for ways to achieve peace.
I was called a hypocrite for these words I posted. To BE FRANK, THEY ARE RIGHT!
I AM still need to be able to OBSERVE & NOT ABSORBE as I find my way through these daily tests.
THANK YOU ALL who commented and helped me realize that I AM no LESS a WARRIOR when I choose not to practice PEACE first.. and someday finally.
This is not a submission to any who seek that sort of outcome that only a confrontation can offer.. cuz no matter how much I seek to be BUDDHA.. I probably WILL ALWAYS BE YOUR HUCKLEBERRY!
SYNCHRONICITY!
This always hits home at the right time. This MANS content seems to be spotlighting what I struggle with daily!
