Struggle for power

One thing I find most interesting about the struggle in society are those who break free and become. It's the realization that power is not given to you. You have to pursue power because you will never be ordained with it. The rich can fall as easily as the poor can be rich. There is no lottery. Oh you can win some money, but if you are weak and powerless you will return to being poor with the same force and speed you became rich.

I often here people tell me that they want to be rich and powerful. It is a goal they wish to reach. The problem being there is no sustaination of that goal. It's a flucution of a realization they will get. Just being powerful doesn't give you power, it only gives you a glimpse of that power. How easily you will fall from the pedestal you would build around you. All the way you are stepping on people to get on top, and you are linked to them because of that interaction.

you are all chained, you are not unique

I want you to imagine a room full of slinky's. They are moving up and down, some move a lot some move little, some are close to the ground and others are stretched all the way to the ceiling. All the slinky's in the room are sliver but yours. Yours is bright red.

You slinky is never unaffected in this room, it is always touching at least one other slinky. This is your circle. Can you see how your slinky is affected by those around it. Those points at which they touch is called a nexus point. Many slinky's can touch the same point at once, these are special days or events at which everyone is at an equal footing. You can move up to the ceiling on these days or down to the floor on these days. You can stay in your circle or step into another circle. You are always chained, as it were, to another slinky.

Are you beginning to see yet?
