Maturity 101) <br>  <br> --------------&gt; <br><br>    Have no doubt that pride is the root of all insanity- the thing that allows us to believe that we can ignore love in pursuit of security\/comfort. <br><br>    I'm not saying lay down- far from it- I'm saying stand, unto death- without malice and without fear, knowing that to be dictated to by pride is like a lazy child dictating to their parent. <br><br>    Until one is of a mind of absolute forgiveness one cannot consider them self grown up- because there are no enemies; only reflections of love deceived by pride. <br><br>    If we are going to fix anything we must fix everything. Time to grow up and take the responsibility we can. <br><br>    Better to starve to death than knowingly act against love. Better the entirety of existence stop then content ourselves with a lie. <br><br>    Without love there is no life- and love cannot be seen through pride (which is funny for pride is only love that has forgotten that it is love). <br><br>    May our want of truth be stronger than our stubbornness. <br><br>    May the consideration that anger cannot be justified not seem too fantastical. <br><br>    We are reflections of highest beauty and 'Heaven-on-Earth'\/a world of trust is our responsibility. <br><br>    Live in the now knowing love. Live in the now without preconception. <br><br>    Love has no argument- deny this and reveal your own contented laziness. <br><br>    Divine divinity and see for yourself. <br><br> in the reality of love, <br><br> me<\/p>\n","contact":"Hatrackman@Yahoo.com","link":"http:\/\/www.angelfire.com\/apes\/hatrackman","address":"","phone":"","parent_id":0,"mime_type":"text\/plain","summary":"on owning honour","numcomment":0,"fileurl":"\/uploads\/","filesize":null,"article_url":"\/news\/2003\/03\/33680.php"},"attachments":[],"comments":[]}
