Word Of The Day Challenge – Popular
Reena’s Exploration Challenge #102 – PROMPT #102:
Public figures make us hate their enemies.
Let it not limit you to a specific realm, or the literal meaning of the words. Go with the flow that the words generate in you, and don’t stop. It can be a creative stream of thoughts, a reflection, a value judgement, essay, rant, biased/unbiased opinion or analysis. There are no bars.
Public figures cannot make us hate
unless we choose this to be our fate
They have no power to make us follow their way
unless we choose to buy into their gameplay
Although it is popular to follow the majority
we can choose to follow a Higher Authority
You see, to follow the majority is so easy to do
because it’s easier than having others think we’re a fool
Great strength and courage it takes to stand apart
and lead others to see it’s love that we must impart
Free will is a power, a gift that has been bestowed
to use so that unwise choices may be winnowed
For free will is a privilege, an honor to be revered
that by others we shall never be commandeered
So board the Freedom Train of free will choice
and allow Love’s righteous way be your voice!
