I just read of the self destruction of
another Biker, after reading the latest post, The Road to Hell, on
Motorcycle Philosophy which was the trigger for this tirade. If you came here today, looking for some laughs and humor, today is not the day to find it. You should probably click away from here now... Otherwise Read on.
'cause I'm about to launch into another Cowboy Biker Motorcycle Philosophy Tirade;
Murder by Suicide and The Baloney of Compromise Supported by the Arrogance of Selfishness.
Have you ever heard it? "You ONLY think of Yourself! You are so SELFISH! When are you going to think of ME?!"
Am I the only one to hear the Arrogant duplicity in that statement?
A man, or woman, has the God Given RIGHT, to think of themselves. Soh-Si-Uh-Tee demands they sacrifice their lives, their blood, their sweat, their property, for everything and everyone around them; and then assaults then with all sorts of Vile accusations, if they are so Bold as to divert the tiniest bit of their energy or treasure, to give themselves,just the sliver of a taste, the slightest personal pleasure, of their own ambitions and dreams.
They profess to Love us... but then proceed to demand that we CHANGE. Change the way we talk, the way we walk, the way we dress, the way we think, who we talk to and when... Hell, the way we comb our freaking hair! They profess to Love US... yet in the same breath demand we become someone else, while giving THEM all we have at the same time, as well as co-ownership of our souls; and Brand us as Selfish Bastards if we dare to resist the theft of our property and our very Identity.
The cleverest, if we do resist that theft, tell us that; To be "Good People" we must
Compromise in life.
That, the
LIE of
COMPROMISE, in truth is one of the vilest and most perverse words/ideas man has ever created.
Typically in a
Compromise, the first party comes to the table with their
DEMANDS (Generally the Demand to "THINK OF ME" and nothing else). The second, generally the Target victim, the accused, comes to the table with all he is.
So, when the
COMPROMISE is done, the first party, who brought
NOTHING, yields in 'compromise', and only gets half their
DEMANDS... while the second party,
LOSES half of who and what they are, beaten down under the obscene guise of
COMPROMISE.
Well, half until the next Demand comes along... then another "half"...
If... and I say... IF ... They truly LOVE you in the first place they DON'T demand you change into someone else, they want you to remain, who you are. The arrogance that sickens me is the phony lie, that they have the RIGHT to "Help" decide who and what you are going to be, and what you are going to do with YOUR LIFE.
The simple fact is; If You Love someone, either as a Lover, or as a Friend, IF, you respect them for who they are, your lives fit together
AS THEY ARE... or they Don't. If demands to change occur... I don't know what it is, for sure... only, that it isn't Love... or Respect.
(OK, demanding that someone stop beating you is NOT an illegitimate demand for change, but again,
NOT what this is about, and you know it!)
The
They that I indict, is Society in all its forms. From the public at large, beating down on a man with its crushing weight to the wife or husband, who tells the Lie, "I love you" while doing everything they can to reshape you into what
THEY think you could be.
The
FACT, that
THEY have
LESS THAN NO RIGHT... to say a Damn word about who you are or what you'll be, not only escapes them... It is
INCOMPREHENSIBLE to them.
... and then, when you can't endure the pain and soul crushing weight of Their obscene assault any longer, and extinguish the glorious light that was you... They continue their assault, and insult your memory with accusations that you
STOLE your life from them!!! That you were so selfish, and they needed so much more
FROM YOU!!!
Even after your Death, in their obscene arrogance, they try to claim ownership of your life. They continue to make the claim "He had no RIGHT to do that with his life. What about ME?!? ... it's all I can do to not vomit.
They make the arrogant, pompous, and callous accusation that your act was one of betrayal, and cowardice and denies the
FACT that your act of
Desperation was the only way the Lost Soul could deal with
THE Obscene lies, betrayal, abuse and
ACTS OF SELFISH ARROGANCE that were imposed on them.
The
FACT that, society had consumed so much of who they were, that they lacked the strength to endure, another second of the Agony the soul stealing cannibals around them, subjected them to.
Ever wonder why, when you look at those who have taken themselves out of the game, they are almost always the best and kindest? Ever known a sorry, pathetic, backstabbing SOB to bust a cap, on themselves?
(and don't tire me with exceptions such as murderers and such about to be caught and punished... this is about
otherwise 'normal' people)
Think About It! and THINK,
before the NEXT Time you utter those words; "You Owe Me"... or "When are YOU going to think of me?"
Think about the souls that took themselves away... can you
EVER remember them asking, in life; "When are you going to think of ME first?" I'll bet you can't. It doesn't fit the sort of person who feels so much pain, suicide is the only way out.
The truth? Many of, if not
MOST, suicides can be argued to be acts of Murder, by the grasping cowards that populate great swaths of society.
I apologize if I've offended. Unless you find yourself in that "great swath of society" I've indicted. If one of those, Wake UP!
