Something About Power


Power abounds all around,
The magnetic and gravitational
power to attract, the opposite
polarity to repel and repulse.

Happiness and kindness draw
us near; anger and despair
push us away. Laws, natural
and man-made are in place for

all to obey. So then, each of
us is free to soar or are con-
versely bound by the shackles
of control and constraint. The

push and pull of life confronts
us each day. There can be no
other way. It does not take a
pundit or philosopher to tell

us that. Look into the morning
mirror as you wake and smile
as a gift to yourself. No one
else has to know that you are

at peace and happy in your
place. Frown should your
choose the negative. In either
case, keep your hidden power

to yourself until that first cup
of coffee tells you which way
you’re headed today. You may
find that a spoonful of sugar

helps sometimes. Then, of
course, there will always be
those who favor their brew
black; others may prefer tea.
