You don’t destroy the world and go free. You don’t destabilize a fragile world and walk away freely. Power comes power goes, and the once famously powerful becomes the weak – vulnerable to the judgment of the world. I remind thee that this power that thou now has shall come to pass. War hardly serves the wish of the dictator – it always starts as planned and ends with the down of the dictator. Once in power, you are immune. Out of power, you are vulnerable – thy life, liberty, and all the pursuits of happiness. Don’t be addicted to power. Don’t be drunkened by power. Don’t be isolated by power. Don’t be blindsided by power. Don’t make power thy disease, weakness, or fall. Because you’re powerful doesn’t mean there are no boundaries, no negotiations, no diplomacy, no consensus, or concessions to be made. It’s not absolute power that corrupts – its the ignorance of power that corrupts. Power given to thee is hardly yours to keep. Power is useful if selfless, and useless if selfish. Power is not solid. It?s fluid. Power is not a commodity. It’s a service. Power is not absolute. Its fragility is human – short-lived, and always missed. Sustainable power comes to thee because you deserve it. Destabilizing or unsustainable power comes to thee because you didn’t deserve it. Corruptly minted power hardly serve greater good. It fulfills the corrupt or cruel purpose to which it was made or given. Be wise. Al PHIL. PIZ. 02.19.2022.
