Too often people want what they want (or what they think they want, which is usually 'happiness' in one form or another) right now. The irony of their impatience is that only by learning to wait, and by a willingness to accept the bad with the good, do we usually attain those things that are truly worthwhile.

It’s more important to be in right relationship than it is to be right.
Parker Palmer, “Out Beyond Ideas” (via beingblog)
It was never about the type. 'Type' comes with boundaries, limitations, expectations. It’s always been about the individual; the individual is one, comes with anything and everything. “

Broken people can only go so far until they break the next person. They don't change the world. It's only a matter of time until they get entangled and bound by their own brokenness.

Hypocrite...
I have a problem with the way I've been taught the concept of hypocrisy. Ohkay, perhaps not, I have a problem with people that think that because one is emphasizing something in life- that thing should not be even merely traceable in their lives. It's a problem for me because I haven't met even one person who fulfills this expectation so what's the point of a benchmark if no-one can meet it? Simply, all the people I know hate being lied to(including myself) and most hate it absolutely while others hate it relatively, ie, to some level. The absolute kids are self-contradictory 'cause I've found them to lie in different situations and justifying themselves by saying it was a 'white' lie... I'm no preacher of relativism but I think it's got it's place in this world. Christians take the cup though, so quick to label each other as hypocrites and not realizing that they subscribe to the label themselves from one degree to another. So, either this is an inherently flawed concept and should be scrapped completely or it should only be applied relatively, by that I mean that it applies only in relation to the topic of judgement, context, perception, choice, etc. We can't have it both ways...
I like it my way...
It is all one to me where I begin; for I shall come back again there.

At the heart of Johannesburg South Africa lies a demarcated intellectual space in which the youths of neighbouring cities, townships, rurals,etc gather in an attempt to cultivate their 'passions'... It is somewhat a depressing sight in direct contrast with the 'enrichment and illumination' this space ought to afford. Allow me to qualify - not subscribing to the gloomy skeptic view of the society. We sit side-by-side and I make a quick calculation in my head- we've all got our heads buried in these books but one in six of us comprehends not what they are facing, one in five comprehends not why they are facing it, one in four crams quickly in the fear of failing, one in three comprehends not what to do with what they are facing, one in two simply cruises through driven by the misguided goal of intellectual superiority and one's just looking like they'd have committed suicide by the early hours of the next day... I am unable to walk away from such a reality and not look back, but wait, I can't even qualify my own position. I walk away with nothing but a flood of thoughts, that's just how we go through it!
