Being Libra…

SO here’s today little tidbit of not-so-enlightening astrology…

Today your energy should be balanced and harmonious. You’ll feel yourself hitting your stride as you do work, communicate with coworkers, and spend time with your family after hours. The Moon is giving you a pleasant, optimistic feeling about life. It’s a good day to count all of your blessings, and recognize that it is a grand adventure simply to be alive in these exciting times.

One would think that being so in touch with myself spiritually I would stop arguing with the stars so much. Well, sorry…stars might be very communicative to people on cosmic proportions…but it just seems to me that they are meant to light the way when things get dark. You can put that in any context you want, but the stars provide us with answers…but the answer:question ratio is astonomical. (Sorry couldn’t help it!) Am I optimistic? Absolutely! But I am not fooling myself either. It’s taken a long time to develop this aversion to success, and one shouldn’t throw away finely honed skills right? …joking…come on…funny funny…ha..ha…

Learning to be successful was far too easy. Finished that gig before I hit 21. Learning how to be so ambitious as to force myself to create a situation that would force me to toil…work hard…and discover the world of reward-via-labor. 20 years of everything being so easy…so now theres this thing I call work that throws me a bone twice a month so I can make financial amends for a decade and a half of total responsibility. I love it. I get to waste my coveted brain cells solving problems that in no manner solve the worlds problems, or even those problems of those truly trying to solve the worlds problems. This is a problem…

So in presenting a problem, I am forced to present myself with a solution. Said solution must accommodate my desire to continue learning…for as long as I live. I know it sounds funny, but an environment that would allow me help others needs to occur soon…erm…at least I need to get up off my arse and stop idling. Mid-life crisis? I certainly hope not. I fully intend to have that after the wife and/or kids are part of the picture (scary thought eh? get used to it), I am hoping for like age 50 or something where I go nutters and pull out my own little bucket list and go crazy 😉

So…the question begs for a voice…What the heck does this have to do with being Libra?! Everything. Choices…choices are important to Librans…they are I daresay everything. While there is a balance in the world, most of us are in no manner content to watch disturbances in the world…at the very least we must spend significant periods of time either processing the solutions others have presented to us or devising our own! How else are we to make the world a more aesthetically pleasing place? Wars do nothing. Violence accomplishes nothing. It is the tool of the weak-minded. The real work of art is in maintaining the balance. And again…back to being Libra 😉

Okay all done streaming thought into bloggishness!

‘Night!

Lost Realist

by Trapt

A purpose, we might see it as the goal, or maybe a place to stop on a long road. There is a need…everyone gets it to a degree…that ambition to make or participate in something meaningful…to live a complete life…we can attribute it wanton ambition, desperation, or even simple, unbending belief in something that should happen. No take a snapshot of one average day. How many minutes do we sit and waste…wondering…hypothesizing…daydreaming. I of course and talking about myself, only being privy to the thoughts of a relatively small portion of some individuals’ thoughts. I wouldn’t claim to be an authority, simply running under the assumption that a significant larger portion of us are subject to the “ooooh Shiny!” syndrome than is actually made public…because if that isnt true…we have a whole planet full of sheeple that are only content to eat, sleep, mate, rinse and repeat. I guess what I think is that it’s expected to not DO anything to improve our standard of living…but it’s an utter travesty to not at the very least consider the feasibility of assisting in the endeavor. Am I wrong? Seriously?!
