Year of the Monkey

unspecified

2016 is the “year of the monkey” and it is proving that I must “re-invent” myself.  There are “bridges” no longer worth maintaining.  The words in my soul waiting to burn them down.  Professionalism and courtesy hinders my “peace of mind“.  People continue reaping the reward of “slave labor“; evidence of theft shining in the light.  Living within a culture of contradictions.  The stars predict a year of tranquility but I must “keep quiet“.  However, silence no longer provides comfort.

“Never be afraid to raise your voice for honesty and truth and compassion against injustice and lying and greed. If people all over the world…would do this, it would change the earth.”
