Hitting on the philosophical idea that doing nothing is the same as doing something. | |||
Cause and Effect To right or flight? To vandalize? Cause or consequence, whatever chosen, repercussion. Choosing a positive kills something negative that could have happened- Sets things in motion. Fueling and motivating, through my spite, I write. Or I fight. Scars remain from my injuries- Post Concussion Syndrome, blackened eyes and broken hand. A feeling of emasculation. Choosing a path of glory or wrath, one action destroys another's possibility of being. We could do nothing and wait for the coming- I have waited too long. Nothing is something. Doing nothing could be a definitive decision, making the difference in a war that could have been prevented. Just a choice. Nothing more. Nothing less. Choose wisely, or with regret. Wish upon a star or leave it to your god. Cause and effect. Tweet
