Seeing elements in our culture that need to change
yet not doing anything, or saying anything
but turning our heads the other way, pretending
not to see, is like sleeping with tigers.
You never know if you’ll wake up
in one piece.

I’ve done and said, Nico. Now, I have to show. You’re right. Letting things be as they are can be bad for wholesomeness. xo
Thank you! I’m saying the same for me as well. Peace to you!
its quite like insomnia with the tigers… one can never rest, never be at ease, never just be Be. No, the tigers out there are stealthily watching and intent, on everything their eyes see. *Good Post, Nico!
Thank you Debi! Yes I was trying for that feel so I’m glad it worked. The problems we see with our world need to be addressed. Peace to you!
it came across……. peace and blessings to you too Nico 🙂

You’re very welcome, :).
Silence is complicity.
Yes, thank you Genie! We must at least try to change our world. It’s our only chance to make it better. Peace!
Whoa, great image! Have you ever read “The Balanity of Evil” by a Jewish woman about a war criminal who was frighteningly ‘normal’…he simply followed orders and didn’t rebel. Sometimes we need to be rebels…
Thank you Anna! No I have not read that one, but will check it out. If we do nothing to change our world, my concern is it will come back to bite us later on. Peace to you and rich blessings!
Yes, we are all called to do our part to make it a better, brighter place…form wherever we are…the ripple effect, right?
Yep you got it! Reminds me of Pope Francis!
Wow, thanks! Making me smile!
