Can a lion be a ...?

 That is fine, this is okay, too. How do you react to such sick silly sentences? In my opinion, they are pure and sheer bromides! Honestly, most irritating! How can everything be okay always? 

In my opinion, it is like saying, black is white and white is black, too! In real life, the two colours are mutually exclusive, like the day and the night! Yes, both are relevant, but separately, in their own ways. They are not easy substitutes for/of each other. And, oh, yes, there is a grey in between, and yet unique it is, absolutely different. 

How can anyone say, good is bad, and bad is good, too?  Or white is black, and black is white! God cannot be Satan, and Satan cannot be God! Sure, each entity has its own place, its own unique relevance in the scheme of things. Yet neither can be confused for the other! 

More than, they 'cannot be' confused, they 'must not' be confused. It is sheer chicanery to say that truth is falsehood, and vice versa.  Such people who patently pass such shallow comments are shrewd manipulators who egoistically know which side 'their' bread is buttered! 

Excellent double-dealers, they play such double dealing games with utmost finesse with everyone else, except, of course, hopefully, not with themselves.  Psychological windcocks they are! Are they deceiving themselves through such platitudes? Nope!  Not at all, I would say. Such round-about-ery is like the hooded glare of a serpent, ready to coil around and sting.

Actually, hidden behind such narcissistic dictatorship of the "all is well" stupidity is the fear of any excellence. Underlying it is also the unstated ambition of finishing off all that is good, pure, ideal, excellent. In other words, involved in calling a spade a spade is an ethical choice. In brief, when "all is well, nothing is well!" 

Pratima@ The real freedom, argued George Orwell, one of my favourite most authors, is the ability to firmly state that two plus two is four. Everything else follows from it 

Quote of the day:                                                 "What is right is right even if no one does it, what is wrong is wrong even if everyone does it," asserted  Saint Augustin, one of the major theological thinkers.

Word of the day: subterfuge                                       Subterfuge is a subtle strategy to deceive, and to alone win all the gains!
