Forever


Forever

It was always forever
and what is forever
for a mortal...

Is it time 
is it a gentle breeze
a wisp of smoke
a whisper

Education ...




Education is freedom 
but it is not about ease, comfort, 
tests or believing you are "right". 

It is about the unknown 
and challenges that are faced with curiosity, 
perseverance, and fearlessness. 

In the face of locked doors, dense fogs, 
and mountains that pierce the clouds 
and block our path, 
do we embrace the possibilities 
or despair at the unfortunate predicament? 

When you accept fear, 
you embrace all that defeats you, 
all that diminishes dreams and inevitably 
set a course in life that has no motion 
and leads nowhere.

THE 12 WIZARD RULES



THE 12 WIZARD RULES

Wizard's First Rule: 
People can be made to believe any lie, 
either because they want to believe it's true, 
or because they are afraid it's true.

Wizard's Second Rule: 
The greatest harm can result 
from the best intentions.

Wizard's Third Rule: 
Passion rules reason.

Wizard's Fourth Rule: 
There is Magic to heal. 
In the forgiveness you grant, 
and more so 
in the forgiveness you receive.

Wizard's Fifth Rule: 
Mind what people do, 
not only what they say, 
for deeds will betray a lie.

Wizard's Sixth Rule: 
The only sovereign you can allow to rule you 
is reason.

not the past.

Wizard's Eight Rule:

A contradiction cannot exist in reality. 
Not in part, nor in whole.

Willfully turning aside from the truth 
is treason to one's self.

Wizard's Eleventh Rule: 
Seek the truth not through others, 
but through yourself.

Wizard's Twelfth Rule:

but you cannot destroy the truth itself.
