There are people
in this world
who wear two masks
on their face,
who will tell
good things about you
in front of you
and tell
bad things about you
to others
behind you.

They have
no mercy.
No matter
how well you behave,
if you make progress,
they will criticise you
and try to harm you.

They have
a crab mentality.
“If I can’t have it, neither can you.”

Just as crabs,
they pull
each other down,
They do not
progress themselves
and do not
allow others
to progress.

If you wear
simple clothes,
they will
discredit you
and if you wear
expensive clothes,
you will be
disrespected.

They
are found
everywhere
and have
a dual identity.

Reena’s Xploration Challenge #223

PROMPT- #223

The theme isNO MERCY–

I feel no mercy forthe criminals who kill just for pleasure, for lust, greed, and their egos.
No mercy for rapists, terrorists, and people who commit heinous crimes, through acid on others, oppress weak and poor.

No mercy for the layers who defend criminals for money, and to win the cases will go to any length. They will distort the pieces of evidence. They temper with the birth certificates to prove their client juvenile even though he was the cruelest one of the lot who committed the most heinous crime.

All thoughts of ‘hate the crime, not the criminal’, and ‘ forgive them for theydon’t know what they are doing’, evaporate.

They are guilty of changing the normal people’s mindset, of killinga part of people’s hearts,their sweetness, and their innocence.

I wish I could make them stand in a…

No Mercy?

God’s Mercy is infinite as our Mercy for our enemies should be, but are they? That is the question!

Showing Mercy to those who injured us is the greatest revenge; I do not know who said it, but it is true. Also, we have this —> “Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.” ~Jesus Christ

Yet we want to forget there IS, like it or not, Divine Justice from God.

Beyond our last breath, we are taken to His Seat of Justice!

Yet, today we might face His Divine Justice here on earth, a chastisement foretold during the Great Apostasy from His Church. 2Thessalonians 2-3; One such commentary explained in the Haydock Bible as meaning; “According to a third and common exposition, by this revolt or apostasy, others understand a great falling off of great numbers from the Catholic Church and faith, in those nations…

They don’t show you mercy, why should you?

They are not kind and forgiving, why should you be?

It’s a dog eat dog world, each looking for their own

When hearts are empty of empathy and understanding

Empty of grace and charity, shouldn’t we also

Don the same garment of apathy as they are wearing

Should we not treat them the same way they treat others

Or………

Should we be better, kinder, more charitable than them?

Game Plan

you murdered my pride when you repeatedly cursed me with your words.
your words that appeared to be deadlier than any weapon in this world.
it hurt me so bad i could die a million death, it hurt me so bad.
those words, your words, you use them to cut the deepest wound.
you murdered my pride.
you ruined my dreams.
you toppled down my spirit.
everytime you open your mouth

no mercy is your game.
and i, i am your willing victim.

oh, i used to be your willing victim. ‘cos i chose to free myself from your pride and ego; from your temper and disposition.

you no longer have the power to hurt me. not now. not tomorrow. not ever.

no mercy, my game today.

i had a recent conversation with two (2) college girls sharing thoughts about a college professor who blatantly told his studentst…

My grandparents on my mom’s side both spoke Russian and when I was young, they told me that I was part Russian.  My Grandfather’s parents were from Belarus and it was known as White Russia after the Bolshevik Revolution in 1917, when it was part of the Soviet Union.  It still has close ties to Russia and it is considered to be a puppet of Russia, with its current leaders doing everything they are told by them.  My Grandmothers parents came from Kiev in the Ukraine and they were also part of the Soviet Union at one time, but now they are an independent country which Russia has invaded because their leader Putin is deranged.  He wants to capture the former grandeur that the Soviet Union once had and he has convinced himself that the Ukraine belongs to Russia.  My ancestors all arrived here in the US in the late 1800s, so…
