Some of what transpired today have given me much food for thought. We all have the capacity to do good but there are times where we go after a certain line of action and convincingly assure ourselves that it is harmless when we know deep down in our hearts it is most certainly WRONG.
We then become a paradox to ourselves. A situation that becomes a vicious circle that perpetuates one wrong doing after another. Is it no wonder then we always find ourselves in one terrible predicament after the next? Unless, of course, we break the cycle.
For many, this 'breaking' or 'spiritual surgery', of excising the malignant tumour of our lives, is a tough call. But as they say, 'no pain, no gain'. We can spend tons of money, effort and time to want to look good and be presentable as the next Miss World. But we can't even spare to lift a finger to cure and overturn our wretched life and eventually save our souls.
Such times we live in! Hamlet was right. To be or not to be. That is the question...
