Power & Preying

Power is experienced in different ways . . . it is both admired and feared. Powerful animals literally consume weaker members of theirs and/or other species. Humans symbolically consume others during the hungry march toward top echelons of importance, and literally do it with warlike precision, applying varied mindlessly accepted endeavors, while making efficient use of brutally enforced, punitive methods of control.

Perhaps a certain level of assimilation is unavoidable -- even necessary. Misuse of power incites defensiveness, anger . . . unless this capability is to the advantage of the observer.

Putting it succintly . . . while misapplied and abused often, power is furiously, constantly sought . . . desirable and seductive, it will absolutely corrupt absent highly aware, constant monitoring.

Recognize and support no source of power which annihilates or causes harm to any living thing - human, animal, plant, a living, life-sustaining body of water. The broad view is one of destruction for ambition's sake.
