Are you out there? "You are never wrong in the opinion and mind of others, who condone your actions." Think about that statement for a moment. Even if something you have done just moments before reading this was wrong, who told you the truth? You see, once we step a foot, even an inch beyond the confines of our personal space we call home, we "out there!" That means, when you leave and go out; after the closing of the door to your home, "out there" is the other side. "Out there" is now where you stand. That is as simple as I can say it; you are now on the other side. When you are young, unknowledgeable and fearless you don't think about the consequences of "out there." What you may want to question is: Now that you have made a conscious choice to be "out there"; where you going? If not you, someone has just left their home this morning, this evening or will later tonight to intentionally be "out there" just because. If they know they aren't going to work, visit family or have a specific place to attend; somebody should ask them, where they are going. Then they should watch to see if they are going to be honest. Then, listen to what they say. When a person has no specific purpose, intent or direction, they may say "I'm just going to hang out!" In translation, whatever the age of whom that makes that statement, what they are saying is they're going on the other side, out there! Hanging out in translation actually means, just doing nothing specific. Even if it means doing it whenever, whatever or where ever. In translation they may be saying they think "out there" is a better place to be, or they are telling a lie. They are lying to themselves, maybe. Hanging out, is an expression that not much positive is going to take place. Hanging out means, we are just going to waste a little time amongst friends and/or strangers. Hanging out means, I don't know what exactly to do with myself, but when I find it, stumble upon it or hear it, and then maybe I'll know what I'm willing to settle for. Some of us have been hanging out, wasting time, accomplishing nothing or very little with friends and associates; already on the other side of right. That means the wrong side. They know it, we know it, yet we continue because: The world and those that are "Out there," on the other side of wrong say nothing! Therefore, you are never wrong in the opinion and mind of others, who condone your actions. Why, because we close doors to what's good for us, to walk into the other side of what's good to us. Because nobody tells us the truth, we are wrong! How can those doing exactly the same thing say a damn thing to us about right? There is very little right out there. There is very little truth out there. The only consistent thing out there is a whole lot of people hanging out condoning each other. Amen This is my gift to the world. For as when it was written I was broke, broken and broken hearted.
About the Author: Giles Selig Of course, this is not my real name. However I have made a decision to identify my name as such! Selig is not a name I hide behind, for it is simple an author name. My real identity is as irrelevant as I have turned out to be in some people's lives. Irrelevant until now; no longer will I remain in the shadows as if my life has no meaning or purpose. Finally there is a mighty purpose for my existence. My birth has been to tell the world there is a higher power so great; the 7 great wonders on this earth are of truly no comparison. I witness to you a higher power that controls the wind, the seas, the sun and the moon. I witness a higher power that controls every word that is written in my testimony of Sin Committed by Simple Confusion, Catastrophic Collision, and Struggle. I witness Sin is real, committed by thought and action of myself and others. Many years as a Son, Father and Husband, I didn't understand the true power of deliverance, obedience and forgiveness. I lived as such a man. I embraced such people in my life. That of course is a distant memory in my life for the most part. There is obviously a small part of me left that is fighting for my salvation! The same part of me that remembers the lessons my father and mother imposed on me as a child and young adult. My parents implemented Values and Morals so deep within me, it blossomed just the season I needed it most. It blossomed just as Satan made a final attempt to destroy the little in me left of spiritual sanity. Sin Committed by Simple Confusion, Catastrophic Collision, and Struggle is not written for the intent or purpose to make any public attacks on anyone. They are rather ironic situations I personally experienced in sin, and my plight to rectify the time I have remaining on this earth. I attempt to rectify my life by glorifying Gods word, I once failed to understand as: Luke 6:26-28 tells us: 26 Woe unto you, when all men shall speak good of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets. 27 But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you. 28 Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you. Amen
