One may expect from all the disarray provided through certain media channels that a Republican state will become reality. With that will come a new order that will be sold as national security. Soon we will all have id badges with our fed number on them. Once the cards get boring, new legislation will be introduced that requires all of us to have that chip implanted in us which will contain all numbers and vital information; not to mention the tracking that comes with. One can expect cameras to be almost everywhere leaving complete privacy out. Social networking sites are visible to everyone; part of the transfer of our freedom to another completely separate entity. LLc 98.2

Enlist your faculties past the bricks and barriers of your perception. Taking time to reflect on progress is fine so long as progress is being made toward your specific goal. However, if that goal has within its wrappiings and trappings a feeling of succeeding in the eyes of the other, then you have succeeded in their eyes and no other. (The Tommycat) LLc 98.2

Sometimes I think the world misses out on good people because policy and procedure within a particular structure hinders progressive thinking. Those who claim to know can sometimes miss out on things they didn't know because they have been playing their hand only. They forget that the game requires more than one hand to play. Anyone who holds a set of cards should have the ability to play his hand without being slammed by the "no talking" rule. But there are many hands to play and many ways to see what cards your opponents are holding. Policy and procedure hinders that part of the game, the enjoyment of it. No joy, no game. No game, all is the same. Policy and procedure is a social construction designed to set the deck before the hands are played. LLc 98.2

You have the desire to be something recognizable in the eyes of your fellow man. You then construct a bridge leading to the crew associated with what you want. Some choose an alternate route; the longer, less traveled road; the one litered with plastic bags and shredded tires. They do this because they are unwilling to play those roles that demand a total dismantling of who they are as people. This says nothing about their community, it just means they play a harder game. The bridge builders are no different that those with worn shoes; they just lack what they can never get back, the experience of failure time and time again. LLc 98.2

Take a serious and deep look around you and think about what you see. Think about what you watch on television and what kind of movies you see. Think about all the things you see each day but never think about. Think how these things affect your life choices and thought processes. Use your imagination to determine where you will be in five years. Once that is done, think about what you watched then and compare it to what you watch now. LLc 98.2

We have ideas about what it means to be successful. These ideas come from available sources and reference points all of which are representative of different people, different times, and different places in time and space. All we know is what we hear or read about other people and their meaning of success. I am just not convinced yet that one person's meaning of success coincides with mine. LLc 98.2

Change is made by the bold who see fault and are willing to right it. Some people in this group idealize their perceptions of the world and try to make it applicable to the generalized public. Those of us in the generalized public need more than just words to convince us. We rely on image and the preformed plasticity of the usual to make us bark. We have become reactionary to stasis in circular patterns of misperception. LLc 98.2
