What Newton Missed
Yes. This rhetoric appeals to pathos so resist the intellectual impulse to ask, "Why?" because I am about to expand upon, "What?" Now think about it...
An opportunity would not be an opportunity without there being a problem without a solution with which to begin. Imagine if you will a world that is absolutely, entirely devoid of any problems whatsoever.
Now ask yourself, "Does opportunity still exist in this world?"
I am inclined, intuitionally, sentimentally, instinctively, to respond, "Nope."
If you have a problem with that response, seize this opportunity to enter the challenge and share your solution to its dilemma.
...just shared mine...
Ouch
Why can't we
Speak the same language.
We made our own dictionary but still don't seem to connect....why.
And my soul reached out and reached for yours
And my legs began to talk
And what I felt filled my body with chills.
"He doesn't understand how much I need him"
I guess I feel like a vampire because I'm enticed by him im latched on. It throbs why can't he understand
I won't leave
Come back
Need me
You help me
If you leave so do I
Why has this become my heartbeat
Why does it help me so much
Possibilities
Is it true that there really are no problems?
Could it be that they all are merely possibilities that we haven’t seen? They say when a door closes another opens.
What if that door that opened
Leads to a hallway,
ongoing with infinite doors?
And behind each door,
more doors.
Now think of each door as a possibility.
Each door is a choice.
Infinitely multiplying.
The only reason that we could get stuck here by what we call problems,
Could be because we keep looking at and opening the same door.
Again and again.
Back and fourth between the sides of that same door.
Between the same two rooms.
This is how we form problems.
How we get stuck,
By our own will,
In the idea that there is no other way.
No other possibilities.
Look around next time you are having a problem.
Ask yourself what you are not seeing.
What possibilities are there,
Behind all those other doors that you have not ever seen.
Stop walking through that same door and see what happens.
There are no problems.
There are only those possibilities, other than what we have seen.
Those choices,
Other than the one we have been choosing.
Those doors that you only notice when you closer the one that doesn’t go where you want to be.
This is the opportunity to go where you want,
Rather than where you have already been.
And all you have to do is ask.
“What else is possible?”
Then step back for a second,
And look around.
Just look
