The Bill Comes Due

Emma ~

We've been reading your posts about a polygraph for politicos.  What a marvelous, albeit funny idea.  The thing is this.  Don't these politicos think they are right?  Don't people who attend status, power and have financial wealth believe they are more unique than the rest of us and deserve it?  Still, I'd like to do it with a louder than loud beep, beep every time an untruth was told. 

You sell your soul for the money and don't ever believe you don't.  Spiritually, emotionally and physically.  The bill always comes due.  Tantamous to karma.  Our deeds come full cycle.  The Laws of Physics. 

Remember Robert Redford in The Horse Whisperer? It's one of my favorite movies with the best dialogues.  He makes and keeps it so simple.  He stays in his own space allowing others to be where they are unless, of course, it affects him personally.  Movies have that special control, don't they? Orchestrating scenes so points can be made.  In the end, or in the beginning dependent upon how you see it, life is what you make it. 

My personal thought is that we convolute it, that is, life, so that we don't have to be responsible.  Grown up.  Just look at the drama out there.  Stay in the drama and you don't have to grow.  But what a sad thing that is.  When we speak it out loud, then we have to do something about it.

The weather turned warm and sunny again.  A week of rain, rain and more rain left a depressed populace.  I can't imagine living in Asia through the rainy season.
