Opposition

People will Oppose you because they have nothing better to do....


They will oppose you because they don't like the way you look....


Family will oppose you because you have the willingness to fight for
things they are afraid of ....


Lovers will oppose you because they don't want to lose you....


Friends will reveal their allegiances and oppose you because they
don't understand who you really are or what you are doing....


Neighbors will oppose you because your success and bravado
intimidates them.....


Co-workers will oppose you because you are competition....


The church will oppose you because control and stricture
is all they know...

Society opposes you because it is their taught task; to
maintain the status quo.
Your job is to do what you need to do, no matter what.


And all the while you have only one decision to make, really,
underneath all the persnickety and strangling abundance of a
myriad of decisions;


Who knows me best?
a.k.a. Who would I be better off listening to?
What's really important at the end of the day.... at the
 end of life? Being safe or being sure?


"You can't please everyone, so you have to please yourself."

Are you going to listen to the outside voices
or the inside one?

Who's going to run your ship?

How much of yourself are you willing to sacrifice
to keep what you have?

How many masters will you serve?

Don't let the opposition come from within.
