11/3/21 ***All things considered, I just be me

 “I am no longer concerned with good and evil. What concerns me is whether my offering will be acceptable.” - Robert Frost

Let me paraphrase,

I am no longer concerned with right or wrong.  What concerns me is whether my offering will be accepted.

Too much time was spent on being right.  So much so the essence of the message is lost along the way because we are too concerned with proving that what we think is right.  Well, I'm not going to do that anymore.  

I'm going to take the stand that I am a passenger inside a train.  This train is going on a track and it is passing through a landscape.  My job is not to decide if it is the right landscape.  My job is to merely describe the landscape.

Like right now I am enjoying the company of the Supreme Leader and Psalms 9:9.  So rather than justifying the right and the wrong, I just describe the situation as it is.

So what does Psalms 9:9 teach me?  The lesson is I am never alone.  I have 37 members strong cabinet to advise me on my action.

At present, the main characters are the Supreme Leader and Dini the Flower Chimp.

If need be, I can collapse the rest and depend on just a handful of key personnel.

However, nothing was created in vain...
