Ethnic Cleansing


I'm ethnic - and I'm cleanin' house. I'm tired of the nonsense. It seems that every so often I find myself needing to take stock of the world around me and decide what I want around me and what I don't.

What I want around me

  • Positive people who can make me laugh.
  • People who are about their business.
  • Energy that harmonizes with synergy.
  • Alignment of actions with words.
  • An empathetic heart and a sympathetic ear.
  • Eyes that watch God.
  • Talkers who listen and listeners who speak.
  • Dwellers, but not brooders.

What I don't want around me

  • Abusers of time, energy and substance
  • A marked focus on the trivial
  • Incessant spontaneity
  • Fear
  • Canoes adrift on reckless waters
  • Self absorption
If you find me distant, unresponsive or apathetic - you need not ask me what category you fall into. I can't be bothered right now. I feel the vibration of transition, like an incessant strum on the string of a guitar ... and I need to focus on the good.

You can keep the bad and the ugly.
