Making enemies into Art<br />
(12/29/2015)<br />
“The Sand People are easily startled, but <strong>the</strong>y'll soon be back ... and in<br />
greater numbers.” ~ Obi-Wan Kenobi<br />
That's <strong>the</strong> way it is with ALL of our lives' “Sand People” -- all those<br />
“enemies” who bo<strong>the</strong>r us or bug us or bash us or brutalize us … We can scare<br />
<strong>the</strong>m, insult <strong>the</strong>m, yell at <strong>the</strong>m, punish <strong>the</strong>m, reprove <strong>the</strong>m, attack <strong>the</strong>m, ridicule<br />
<strong>the</strong>m -- even run away <strong>from</strong> <strong>the</strong>m; and yet <strong>the</strong>y just keep coming back in greater<br />
numbers – over & over & over again.<br />
And <strong>the</strong>y do so not because <strong>the</strong>y ARE so --- <strong>the</strong>y do so because it is our<br />
anger &/or our sadness &/or our annoyance &/or our fear that <strong>the</strong>y are after in <strong>the</strong><br />
first place … Refuse to give <strong>the</strong>m <strong>the</strong>se things, and <strong>the</strong>y will look for <strong>the</strong>m<br />
elsewhere. Indeed, refuse to give <strong>the</strong>m <strong>the</strong>se things, and <strong>the</strong>y will ultimately stop<br />
behaving like “Sand People” at all.<br />
Peace to ALL … S<br />
