Who Are Trying To Fool? You Can't Fake Endurance!

What is endurance in an age when what you project is taken for granted? Does endurance dress itself up in "survival" so that those who've marked you as being enduring may fade their demands while searching for fresh blood to poison? If required...read it again. Research shows, your vital being, the ability to "put up with" every condition presented can be walked through by way of endurance. Your body is an enduring servant. It was made to tame the beast of burden. To endure and or survive sets aside a book of rules while putting focus on two words: Give up. Give up your likes and dislikes! Don't give up on the self that's chosen to endure. Show no disturbance when challenged by others. That's what it means to be enduring. The keen sense of direction that makes you solid on a playing field that's too disturbing for others to follow. Are you or have you ever been this person? This is a time of reflection inside a current stage of American history that'll one day be described as pompous exaggeration. Wildly out of control is leadership. Titles more than actions harness discontent and yet through shades of gray there are few who endure. I have no problem laughing in the face of the one that brags of being the best of all time. I feel no urge to pull back from opinion when being wronged by coworkers and family members that feast on greed. Show no disturbance when challenged by others. That's what it means to be enduring. But how many people cross your path exclaiming their righteous place for they've been beaten up every day by visions too far to attain; only for you to take note of there being too much play once they assume your eyes have turned away? Nothing great is ever accomplished without endurance. Business success in 2012 no longer requires desire. It's based on clock watchers. Employees, co-workers, family and friends that believe endurance is the act of just showing up. I've learned the hard way that responding makes me the ass. To react does in fact make you less enduring. It hurts me deeply when people say, "He's difficult to work with." Only one General Manager has stood up for the expressions shared while in despair, "It's my goal today to not punish the employee in question. But to question the other employees responsible for bringing height to so much emotion." If you stop and stare at a department store cashier; the truth of their treatment will be exposed inside five minutes. We've developed a style of life that moves so fast forward that taking note of bad habits and misconduct no longer gives reason for there to be a Human Resource Department. Does this make us more enduring than our parent's generation? Are we cowards for doing nothing to protect the innocent? I'm reading a book called The Power's Within. It teaches the art of kicking. When you feel you've been wronged the sound of your kicking awakens the core of your soul. Is this why Martial Artists spend so much time doing front, side and roundhouse kicks? Maybe it's design wasn't to protect your physical life but the sound of your left or right leg extending quickly guarantees the mind body and soul that it has refueled endurance. Show no disturbance when challenged by others. That's what it means to be enduring. The presence of sound that is that of "Kicking" erases petty consciousness. Maybe this is why the heroes of war spend so much time marching. The act of pushing your left or right foot outward in fast un-natural way is that of a kick. Through kicking we learn to master inner peace. What is running but the motion of pushing your lower limbs outward like that of a kick? The principle of endurance relies on the strength of spirit. Why do martial artists and famous tennis players named Williams exude ear piercing screams when kicking or hitting the ball away from the source of energy? To hold the spirit of endurance. Do you endure or collect paychecks? Give me five minutes to watch your playing field. b I'll know... arroe@arroe.net
