      08 | Defense …

      Man forges his own destiny …

      Stepping in front or behind somebody

       to defend them

       really makes little sense at all.

      Everyone creates their own karma through cause and effect,

       therefore, defending somebody all the time

       means interfering with someone else’s karma

       and possibly sharing it to a large degree.

      This tends to happen to people

       who already have baggage

       and who then like to take on even more weight

       because they have gotten so used to carrying it.

      The burden becomes heavier by the day, until one day the pointlessness

       and contradiction of this behavior becomes obvious.

      It has become too heavy and is now definitely burdensome.

      That’s why you should never meddle with the issues of others

       as it automatically prolongs that person’s karma;

       you carry a weight that belongs to somebody else.

      It is time to put down the bag,

       and thus also your own burden,

       so as to experience your own flourishing talents

       and to live your own blossoming life.

      You can only live your talents properly,

       when you discard all the burdens

       that you have amassed over time,

       or that you have been carrying for others.

      Standing by somebody,

       when it is indeed a case of two connected hearts,

       these have a built-in defense mechanism, they self-purify.

      Beyond that there is no point in defending somebody

       who often cannot even assume responsibility for their own actions.

      Man forges his own destiny

       and is responsible for his own karma.

       It is therefore impossible to defend someone, given that life is much more complex.

      PS: Defense often comes with finger-pointing … and covers don’t just make chairs look good …

      09 | The sidecars …

      There are people who have little self confidence

       and like to relinquish control -

       because sidecars don’t have a driver

       and they feel comfortable in that spot.

      They feel comfortable because they appear to be part of the vehicle

       without actually contributing.

      These are the relaxed free riders

       who do not even have to stand in the process,

       but can sit instead.

      The rider himself does not seem to be overly self-confident either,

       otherwise he would not need a passenger.

      The riders are often too weak to go solo.

       It is the nature of sidecars

       that they can stand upright jointly but without support;

       then again, they do not stand on their own,

       but can only do so together.

      Sidecars are also funny

       in that they tend to represent the opinion of the main rider,

       which is probably the price the passenger has to pay for the ride.

      Whether two half persons make a full one is up for discussion,

       but it is certainly a way

       of strengthening one’s lack in self-confidence.

      PS: The tedious bit is that neither the rider nor the passenger can take qualified decisions on their own.

       Instead we often hear “Hang on, I have to make a phone call …”

      10 | Fear is brutal

      Fear is brutal, because fear hides itself.

      We hide our fear ourselves in a fortress we have built within us,

       with battlements and machicolations.

      We do the same to ourselves

       as has been and is still happening around the globe:

       armament.

      We arm ourselves to be able to go through life in the first place,

       in order to be able to adequately defend ourselves

       on day X,

       when we are attacked again.

      In us, the same is happening as has been noticeably happening around us -

       more and more theaters of war worldwide -

       no abatement.
