“Each person you meet
is an aspect of yourself,
clamoring for love.”
Eric Micha'el Leventhal
"True patriotism
hates injustice
in its own land
more
than anywhere else."
Clarence Darrow
“The emotion
that can
break your heart
is sometimes
the very one
that heals it...”
Nicholas Sparks

The adversarial force
challenging our
Better Nature
operates
in mysterious ways.
Most evil in this world
is done by those
who believe they are
Doing Right.
One way that evil
tricks us
is by using our
Better Instincts
to it's own bad ends.
One example
is becoming SO
"sympathetic" to the
pain of others,
that we become
Righteously Angry
on their behalf.
This creates:
More Anger,
More Judgement,
Less Insight.
Look at your own
facial expression.
Listen honestly
to your own words.
What energy
are YOU putting
into the world?
Righteous Anger
is an oxymoron
like jumbo shrimp.
Don't be a big
moron shrimp!
Fondly, cloudia

As always, needed that. Your post made me think of so many things going on inside my head as well as inside our country. The question, "What kind of energy are you putting into the world?" makes me stop and look at myself.
So right. Right or Wrong often depends where you are standing at the time.
Be a big smarty shrimp!

That's the problem .. There ate too many moron shrimps around the world making decidedly smelly decisions n'est pas :)
You know I meant are.. oui :)
Making me think in a whole different way about shrimp ! Somehow shrimp is now making me think about Forrest Gump and I loved that character and his sweet energy .
Ha. I know I've been a moron shrimp sometimes. But your quotes go right to the core of the matter with wisdom. I especially like the first quote. The pictures, as always are wonderful and soothing. Thank you Cloudia.
You need to make and sell a Comfort Spiral bumper sticker: "Don't be a big moron shrimp!"
Love it.
And moron shrimp are everywhere. Where is the tartare sauce when you need it?
I become righteously angry quite a bit. It stresses me out far too much.
Thought provoking words and fun presentation. I love the gorgeous sky shots.
I really like that Darrow quote.
Your first shot looks like it could be a posed art installation. Thanks for contributing to this week's Monday Mural.
Nice capture of life there. Loved seeing the skies too.
The pictures today are marvelous!!

Good advice!
Lovely shots and thoughts! I do indeed wish that the war in Gaza would end and we would all join in peace as fellow humans.
Well Cloudia, these quotes certainly got me thinking!
