Deception & Belief

Deception, as a trait, is so integral to our nature
That we can become oblivious to its falsehoods
To the point of believing that its lies are truths
Unaware that the more emphatically we believe
The more transparent we become to all others.

Mindsets & Traps

Mindsets are mental traps 
Which suspend our intellects
In a state of immutable opinion;
Escaping the bonds of our mindsets
Paves the way to intellectual freedom.

Ideas & Love

It is how we feel about certain issues
That determines how we think about them;
That is why the very same issue
Viewed by different factions
Generates dissonant reactions;
Often, our feelings control our thoughts
More than our thoughts control our feelings.

Self & Age

A good exercise in humility
Is to visualize our elderly
When they were young
And visualize ourselves
When we get old.

Simplify & Governments

Because governments 
Are seldom able to simplify
They cause the lives of their citizens
To become more complicated with time.

Freedom & Sensorship

Freedom of speech
Censored by political correctness
Makes dictatorships out of democracies.

Anger & Peace

Many a violent life 
Wasted on anger and hate
Could have been saved
With love and peace.
