Sentient Discord?or Just because ‘ya can, doesn’t mean ya’ should?

Choice.

The Choice is Yours.

At the least it used to be.

Possible it is slipping away with every click, bait and tap.

Taking with it the ability to control yourself… moving right along with the clicks, baits and taps……

More importantly, the self-ascribed ability to control yourself. Possibly or impossibly resulting in passing through or road blocking any achieved status of personal ability and merit.

Let’s be honest, if I asked you to just summarize what I just wrote, could you? Would you? Are you capable? Able. Or did you simply move on with ZERO remorse for what you left behind, the mess you left behind? The text you did not read because you were reading a “better “one. That allows you to leap frog over another fast and furiously.

Sociologically and zoologically speaking of course.

Do you seek to improve your ASCRIBED status at all costs, of and to others…No matter what it takes?

Not on my watch. Gratefully, I learned the proper way to manage my time.

First. Clarification required. Ascribed status is defined as the social status of a person that is assigned at birth or assumed INVOLUNTARILY later in life. The status is a position that is neither earned by the person nor chosen for them. Rather, the ascribed status is assigned based on social and cultural expectations, norms, and standards. These positions are occupied regardless of efforts or desire. (Wk)

Or namesake.

The “eponym” if you will. If you are unsure about this eponym word. My suggestion to you is to “look it up”. As with many things in our world, it will require your focus, attention and clarity. And concentration. First. The ability to read will be required. There are no short cuts. The positive aspects will be astounding. I promise. Think of how much inclusion you will feel when reading with confidence and clarity. Rather than questioning who you are.

OMG. SO much to unpack. I am afraid we will not finish unpacking this tightly wound mess in this lifetime, much less this year—mainly because we are dreadfully behind in the formal and official education. Higher, Middle and Lower School notwithstanding.

You always have the choice to seek help. Rather than impose your wants, needs and desires onto another. Who perhaps is far from capable of understanding. What you need.

Ignorance not an excuse. Anywhere, anytime along the pendulum. I keep suggesting curling up with a good book, but the clicks, baits, and taps have become too enticing. See what I mean? Not possible to conclude the damage as done in this lifetime. TOO much water under the bridge. Drowning in it actually. Erosion has occurred at levels that cannot be of measure in this lifetime.

Completely different from “Moving On”. If you have been around the block a few times, been around awhile. Good for you. In general, moving on is packaging the mess in a different, box, different bow. Sadly, the sticky tape still there. Swallowing whole the chunks.

No more. Change is not an option. What’s done is done. Forgive and forget? That is personal choice. For some. At least when I last checked. To some is comes organically, naturally, with no additional fertilization needed. Not necessary to be imposed on or disclosed.

Until and Unless it is.

Then. Whaddya do? Beats me. I prefer to stay away from the clickers, baiters and tappers. My head begins to hurt if I spend too much time staring at a screen. Even more so when the excuses become well, too much.

Some things are hard to forget. And. Some things are easy to remember.

Denial won’t make them go away. The sooner this communicable belief is mastered, the better. All the talk in the world does not change some things. In the long run, we all have to live with ourselves.

Sadly, we are moving away from living with each other. Communitally speaking.

BTW. Community is not a verb. Communitarianism emphasizes the connection between the individual and the community. Pity the one who tries to fake it.

Increasingly, societally, we are moving away from living with each other. Ignorantly believing that a screen allows us the freedom to mis treat one another with letters, words, and “pics”. The right to mindlessly take a pic of another. To interrupt, intimidate, exclude and pretend that,

All is cool. When it is not. Far from it.

U turns, reverses, back ups a waste of precious time. Precious time better spent doing the reading first. In the first place. Like joining a good club. Voluntarily.

Community Service that is now about as confused as has ever been. Not to be confused with a “do-gooder”. There are more than enough bloggers in the world. Where are the do-gooders” anyway? Don’t ‘ya kinda think if there WERE more do-gooders rather than bloggers, we would be doing, well, good? And not tapping our fingers until they ache?

Like a tooth that needs to be pulled. Or an ear that won’t stop ringing. A mindless, annoying twitch that continues to remind us that honesty matters. Truth is better than playing hide and seek around the block. A community is only as strong as the persons whose choose to do,

Good.

Otherwise, the choice is taken away in insidious, intimidating, insulting ways. And the lesson is lessened and we are all grasping for the dingy dinghy to keep us afloat.

Think of a moment like a standardized test. There are no re-dos. Moving on in a different package is moving on to a different package. WARNING. It is indeed important to be careful how it is packaged. Otherwise the paper cut can run long and deep. The hovering increases. The madness continues. The lies take on a life of their own. The box collapses and stuff falls out.

Think of life LIKE an algorithm. A set of rules to obtain the expected output from the given input. Whether in front of the screen or behind the screen, your foot print, if you will. The output is only as valuable as the YOU inputting the rules and regulations of your set of rules into place.

Do your best the first time. In the first place. Stick with your set of rules. Avoid the sticky tape at all costs.

When it doubt. Leave it out.
