Téion G. Williams - "The Greatest War known to mankind is the war with Self"©

As you go along through life you realize more and more the value of having peace of mind. It's importance grows with every experience but it often eludes us for one reason or another; fleeting somewhat. You can either LIVE or just be alive, many of us are just alive but not living, as in not really feeling and in-tune with life on a daily basis, not knowing our purpose whether spiritually, socially, professionally etc. so we operate in a subpar, miserable and internally destructive manner. 
Happiness or Peace cannot be honestly experienced without conquering self, without being able to control the desires of the flesh and steering away from self destructive ways. No amount of materialistic gain or social recognition can win such a war that continuously goes on in the innermost chambers of the mind and heart! It takes continuous self discipline and self love to win that war against self and until you start fighting that war you will remain but chaff in the wind being led by your past and your circumstances instead of being the leader in your life.©

Ask yourself....©

Ask yourself: if you weren't TOLD about God would you come to believe or know God exists, or a God exists? And if so how would you go about finding out or knowing about God? If you weren't told marijuana was a DRUG what would you call it? What would you think about it? If you agree that homosexuality is wrong what made you agree to that? Was it because you were told to think it was wrong or you concluded from your own introspection or independent research and thought processes that it's wrong? How many things do we live by because we were told to do so and not because we did our own self analysis? How many of us are robots as opposed to rational thinking beings? How many of us are zombies as opposed to living?©

Am I? Are we? Should I? Should we? ©

Is it a lack of love for oneself why one would willingly indulge in activities that directly and consciously bring forth destruction? Is it a lack of love or a lack of fear; or a lack of understanding? Who am I to judge whether or not a man loves himself? How do I even know if someone loves his/herself? Is it my business if someone loves his/herself, and if it is my business, is it always my business? If it is not always my business, at what time does it become my business? If a man smiles in the midst of his own self inflicted destruction, does it mean he's comfortable in his destruction? Should it be anyone's responsibility or duty to solve that mystery? Should I be my brother's or sister's keeper? Or should I just mind my own business? I'm torn! So please; answer me... Am I? Are we? Should I? Should we?

Words to live by

"I would rather die upon yonder gallows than live in slavery". - Samuel Sharpe (Jamaican National Hero)

Something of Value I came across

In his last public address to an annual conference of the PNP, he said: "I say that the mission of my generation was to win self-government for Jamaica, to win political power which is the final power for the black masses of my country from which I spring. I am proud to stand here today and say to you who fought that fight with me, say it with gladness and pride, mission accomplished for my generation.

"And what is the mission of this generation? ... It is... reconstructing the social and economic society and life of Jamaica". Norman Manley died on September 2. 1969.

Man and his worst enemy...himself ©

Man has this great temptation and urge for discord at times, that if left unchecked could cause destruction to those around him/her and even to his/herself. It's this deep seated anger buried from ignored discord whether internally or externally. Anger is this realm often left unexplored by those who it affects the most, it remains unexplored up until the point where one can no longer ignore it; until it destroys something precious. Many devils we fight on life's journey, none as sly and destructive as anger! From anger towards self we think lowly of ourselves, from anger towards self and others we give ourselves over to greed, from anger towards self and God we breed hatred towards mankind. As I seek to master self, I learn more the role anger plays in the destruction of mankind. It's more than a word or emotion, it's an entity coloured with tears and blood, traveling within us at subatomic levels polluting and holding captive every fibre and cell of our beings; seeking, feeding and devouring every ounce of hate in whichever form.

So send the warning to whichever mind you can about this aggressive paradox, for what you think is something else is nothing more than anger disguised. All ill trees find their roots here and all forms of significant and sincere success had to once defeat this enemy. Good-morning.©
