It is a difficult to balance within the 3 emotions when you are dealing with an individual who has reached a higher social status then you either through wealth, education, popularity or a combination of the above. We shouldn’t idolize any person because all their talents, possessions and popularity are loaned to them by G-D and at any moment they can be taken away. At the same time we shouldn’t be jealous of their achievements because they were able to utilize those loans to move up the social ladder while we’re still trying to find the steps. Respect for what there position in life is the exact spot to be at. It includes listening but discussing, honor without blindness, and appreciation of where we are today and how far we’ve actually climbed ourselves.
1 Foot grounded 2 toes for a higher purpose
I have one foot grounded to where I am while two toes continually search for the higher purpose. If for some reason I’m pulled to put three toes down my foot will pull away on the other hand if someone pulls me from my higher purpose those toes will keep them going in the right direction. This enables me to enjoy most secular activities and still finding a deeper meaning in them while resisting the temptations to dwell to deep in either direction. I believe having this balance has enabled me to see the world as it is and how it can be with guidance from G-D above and around.
Pulled!
As a leader of a organization you must know how far you can pull someone before they snap and walk or run away. It doesn’t matter the motivation or whether the organization is religious, political, business or social oriented, pull to hard and you will get burned. The key to good leadership is to know where that persons breaking point is and make sure that this individual is always two feet behind it. It is true little by little that breaking point which seemed so inflexible only a moment ago will become pliable over time but it is also true that this breaking point might contract at any given moment and without warning. The good leader always has a way to determine such points and knows when it’s time to push forward and when to back away.
Love… for moment.
We fall in love with someone for a moment but that moment can last a lifetime. There are times when we need that empathetic touch, person who makes us laugh, inspires us to go for our dreams and/or enables to enjoy the peace and quiet. This person appears right there when one or even more of those moments call but is far away when the others moments arrive. Whether this person becomes our life partner will depend on how frequently and important those moments actually are. No relationship is perfect it is just the ones that are there when it counts that truly last.
To Live For!
We all have one of those days or even weeks… where we wonder what is the point. At this point we might ponder is this the reason that I’m here? When times appear to bring you down it’s time to look at the reasons that cause you to live through them. Here are just a few reasons (below) to keep in your head and soul.
(1) FAITH- G-D has a special path for you that could be revealed at the least expected moment.
(2) FAMILY & FRIENDS- It might appear that they don’t need you or care for you as much as yesteryear but realize that they might need you in a whole different way.
(3) FIGHT- You’ve climbed many a mountain before and this one is just a steep hill you’ll get across.
(4) FUN- It’s time to take a moment for some fun that doesn’t involve death defying activities.
Obama’s Riots
Many people believed by electing an African American as President that riots within our inner city would be at thing of the past but it’s not the color that makes the change but the culture of politics. A culture similar to my Jewish culture expects you to vote liberal Democratic and act in a certain way even though it hurts you and your people. If we change the culture (see below) we will see a change in the our lives for the better.
(1) Community Leaders and law enforcement authorities must be in constant communications understanding that although there may be disagreements that both sides are willing to listen and find peaceful solutions to any problems that might occur. They must constantly communicate that message to their respective communities.
(2) Traditional families based on faith traditions must be restored and promoted in the inner cities through the culture that exists there and beyond. Political actions must be based on that promotions.
(3) Violence against one’s own community only hurts those in the community with less economic opportunity for all. Measures must be taken immediately should such violence occur.
(4) It is not an act of civil disobedience to defy an arrest but an act of stupidity that needs to stop. You’re loved ones don’t need to fight for you when you’re not here but fight for your rights while you’re here.
(5) The blame game ends and whatever limitations are put in front of you they are barriers that you will proudly break through.
(6) It’s not only fine but a part of a vibrant community for diverse political and cultural differences to exist in one’s community and insures that nobody takes that community for vantage.
An emotional vote!
Many of those that we elect to office hit our emotional needs/desires more then our practical concerns. These candidates appear to relate to our everyday concerns or represent our desire for change in the way our country looks or is portrayed. The truth is having an emotional tide to a leader has it’s place for the leader must motivate us when times are difficult and show us a new path forward that we might not have seen. An emotional leader can also make us feel good as we belong to “their team”. Yet leadership without the necessary values and experience can lead us to a dangerous path where we ignore the facts in front of us and instead focus on standing behind our man/woman. Therefore before voting for such a leader we must carefully weigh that emotionally side against the practical course that leader will send us to and insure that the practical side wins out.
Kosher Pig
From the outside a Pig might appear to be kosher because it has split hooves but because internally it only has one stomach the pig and can not chew it’s cud it remains non kosher. What is amazing is that the Bible/Torah mentions a total of only four animals that have one but not two of the traits that are needed to be Kosher and science has never found one other animal that they can add to this list. For those that believe in science another proof that the Bible/Torah is true. It is said that when the Messiah appears pigs will be able to chew their cud and become Kosher. That means that they must change internally to be Kosher. I believe for us it means that even if we appear holy on the outside it is more important for us to be holy in our heart and soul.
Who runs for President?
How does someone decide that they are the right person to run for the Presidency? There are 100 Senators, 50 Governors, thousands of doctors, and hundreds of thousands if not a million business people, but only a handful of the above will actually seek the highest office in the land. What makes these people stand out above their crowds? Is it their unique ability to lead or their ability to appear to lead? Does there policy decisions appear bold or boldly put them in the spotlight? Do they have an extra ability to care for others or have others found a way to care for them, without them even knowing? The truth is it isn’t one trait that puts them in this category but a combination that makes them stand alone here (below) are a few of the key traits.
(1) EGO- These individuals must believe they have a unique quality to rise above the others in their categories.
(2) ORATORS – They must have the gift of gab and convince others that this is so as well.
(3) IMAGE- Their look must be similar in someway to the common person but also unique enough to be seen through the crowd.
(4) MONIES- Those with means or those that have friends with means must believe these individuals are uniquely qualified for this position.
(5) POSITIONS- They must take a side on some issues to make sure those organizations that support those views will support them.
He’s looking Presidential!
