The Master
Bow Before Me.
My previous inquiry was well received so I will post another for pondering.
Man is driven by several needs. The need for wealth, the need for recognition, the need for fame, the need for control, the need for power, the need for acceptance, the need to belong. Other needs are more primitive and base such as the need for food, and the need for sex. Those who study many of the traditional arts and faiths seek to overcome many of those needs, and stress such things as humility, chastity, and poverty. Here in this fine communications medium we see many who demonstrate a number of those same needs. I myself use the alias "The Master" because that is how I see myself. Master of what, is my business, though some see me vain to lay claim to such a title, viewing me through their own eyes alone. But our eyes are not fool proof.
When confronted by anothers needs, through whose eyes do you choose to view? What follows are several questions. Ponder them.
A man approaches you. He looks dirty. He smells of urine. He is speaking in a manner you can not understand.
What do you see?
A woman is standing on the corner of a street. She is dressed in a provocative manner.
What do you see?
Two men are pushing a woman into the back of a vehicle. She is swearing loudly. The car looks old. She looks to be well to do. The two men wear jeans and tee shirts. One is of a different race than the woman.
What do you see?
An old Caucasian woman is on the ground, possessions scattered about. A large Hispanic youth, dressed in head rag, flannel and boots stands over her, hand outstretched.
What do you see?
Bill Gates stands before you. He is talking about the legacy of Windows.
