Alpha and Omega
By Anthony Douglas Gere
I once heard a quote that pretty much sums up this theory, but I need to
elaborate on it more to display my definition on what it meant to me.
Now isn't that usually the case in most things, that once something is
said by someone, the story changes or takes on a new meaning or life
once it is passed down the line?I guess its the interpretation, or the
spin effect someone wants to add to the impact, so as in life and not in
history, this do change, but stay the same.
Now being the beneficiary of much stupidity and wisdom, I biasly try to
separate the two and what's in between with a universal slate of
thinking and acting to lead by example. In my personal and professional
life, I constantly attempt to end each episode of interest with a much
higher scale on which I began it. This approach in my opinion, is the
motivating factor to be what I expect in return, and stimulate the force
that I am not aware of, or can not control. Many of my peers, business
associates, friends and lovers have questioned my methods, and that
does concern me about them, but not how they perceive me and my way
of living. You see many have categorized me as an extremist, and that it
is all or nothing with me. On the surface, or cosmetically, I can see
why they think that. But when given more thought, one would think they
would realize different. If ones desire is to succeed, not be successful,
but succeed, they understand the longevity in that mindset.
Many live for the moment, without realizing the moments before and after
and their place within it. With this action of thinking, one will and
is destined to be a shooting star, and burn out once recognized by the
viewer. I on the other hand attempt to revamp the most extreme action
for shock value, uniqueness, motivation and significance, to separate
myself from the norm, and place a standard that I must live up to, and
excel beyond the capabilities of my competitors. Now understand that
this is not a game, or a statement to just make one. This is a method
that allows the giver and taker a measuring stick on their improvements,
stability and descent. This is your gauge, and instills a high level of
interaction that can and should be recycled to guarantee an eye opening
reality to the dreamer. Many knock this technique, but only because they
themselves have never witnessed it. Its somewhat foreign, and not being
open enough to close out the doubts of its purity, will assure conflict
and low acceptance of the force that one must surrender to. So as far
as my manhood, or escalating climb towards being the ultimate me, I feel
as though if I start something, I must be willing of the perch or
platform I construct my foundation on.
I realize the label of being a man. I've seen enough examples of men,
males, boys and daddys to distinguish the difference. I feel that if
alone I am the man I want to be, I can be twice the man in taking on
more weight, IE, another person. Its not the physical weight of the
being, but the mental and emotional support of enhancing my being. With
moral support and spiritual guidance, I will produce another set of eyes
and ideas to travel throughout this world offensive and defensively. I
will be able to protect what is protecting me, and push away what maybe
pulling us back.
