Over the years I have noticed an interesting trend with friends, acquaintances and even strangers, who have come to realize (to borrow a well-used phrase) that they “think wrong and value the wrong things”. These people arrive at our actual or virtual doorstep asking for assistance in righting this wrong. Some of these people initially thought we were too politically incorrect, even “crazy”, and then returned years later, hats in hand.
Here I would be remiss in not mentioning the “hits” with the “misses”. While greatly dwarfed by the failures, the successes are glorious, and populated by people forever grateful to Rogue Support for the time and tutelage, who “pay it forward” to acknowledge a lifelong debt. For people in the “misses” category, belief in “something” that has been programmed into them (by themselves or others), is usually what stops them from being able to intellectually develop, extrapolate, or achieve their full potential.
All of us get one life. It’s short and relatively unimportant in the larger scheme of things. But it’s ours. Despite what you may have been led to believe, it will never come again. Consuming time frivolously from others and then producing no tangible result, is one of the worst crimes I can imagine. Money can be replaced, possessions can be re-acquired…time, once wasted, cannot be restored and has permanent repercussions. While I say this often, the importance of this concept cannot be overstressed.
