he must be bored! LOL.
no, not bored, well, a little, but more to the point of fact that my brain, while having been taxed to the limit and beyond over the last few months, still has a little left to give, and today, well, it’s in a munificent frame of being.
i got a quote sent to me the other day, from a friend, that was from the tv show ‘peaky blinders’. i have never really watched this small screen offering, although the lead character is played by an actor, Cillian Murphy, whom i think is quite brilliant. (see Oppenheimer and of course, the C Nolan Batman movies).
at any rate, me being well, me, i started poking around looking for more quotes from that show and associated with the show.
found quite a few that i thought very much germane to my state of existence currently, and, with your indulgence, i would like to share them with you today.
“I Have No Limitations.” No, i don’t. At least the edge of my envelope hasn’t been reached yet. See the whole bit about depths not plumbed yet in the previous post.
“Before the day is over, your heart will be broken, just the same as mine. Men like us, Mr. Shelby, will always be alone. And what love we get, we will have to pay for.” Amen. and pay i have.
“Some people aren’t loyal to you, they are loyal to their need of you. Once their needs change, so does their loyalty.” – again, amen. fully evidenced too many times.
“Sit with people who protect your name in your absence!” – i think that i have, but i think that i have not. powerful sentiment though, no?
and this one, “When you truly don’t care what anyone thinks of you, you have reached a dangerously awesome level of freedom“ – been there, perhaps still there, although there are those of you who think that i actually give a flying fuck what you think of me. i think that people perceive my generosity and help has something to do with me being concerned how i look in their eyes. far from it. it is how i was raised. to help, whether right away, or in the end, and for the conception of me being someone who cares about how he looks in other eyes, is so totally erroneous and misguided it makes me laugh. it is funny though, when i choose NOT to help, i am insulted, slandered, spoken down to, and countless other forms of emotional warfare in order to awaken in me the desire to just help them because, they are ‘just oh so stressed’. funny. no.
at any rate, there are others, but i will leave these with you.
as always, i bid you,
peace.
oh. one more…
Trust. Loyalty. Respect. Lose one, and you lose all three.
