In the art of war and love. The laws of science transcend all.  Newton’s law of motion; “for every action/force there is an equal and opposite reaction.”
 For every time you commit yourself to the good of man something bad will inevitably pass your way. In light of religion and doing good we often wonder why do bad things happen to good people, in the complex, seemingly chaotic universe balance must be restored. Religion may give a person strength and consolation of a sort but it does not stop the hurt.

I lay myself on a cusp, unable to commit myself to something for fear of cancelling out another option, an open mind greater then the body and soul that contains it.
Maintain a general wanton for all, committed to nothing….then you will be safe. But the Aesop’s fable does not lie, in fiction there is truth. As the bat, unsure, distrusting waits…fearful of a negative result, as heaven and hell fight*(birds and the animals at war actually) procrastinating choice until the winning side is clearly guaranteed. A traitor to all success, alone and unidentified in the self created nothingness. He is eventually consumed by both sides.

You should not have a sense of self greater then the force you are dealing with.
Let loose and choose a path, lest you stick there pondering the safeness of the road less travelled by.

As Newton’s law lays down you cannot have love without hate.
You cannot inspire love without eventually encountering the depression, the greater your elated high the more likely hood of you hitting a brutal reality upon which inspires regret. The human emotional capacity is stretched to its limits, exercised by life, like a salad party for the blind 
….and it is by not exercising these limits that we truly fail in life.

I call it the Humanising Effect. We spend our lives yearning for perfected success of a sort, an ideal, concerned with the past and the future, we attempt to achieve completion. 
But alas, completion is hidden, for life is but a series of ever-changing moments, caught up in probability attempting to put faith in any sort of a life which is judged on the ever-changing chaos about us we fail to realise that we are perfectly complete. =) In the failings and ups and downs we become most human when are swinging on the pendulum of life unaware of the time past and ahead, for life merely evolves ….it does not complete.

To “complete” yourself is to lay at a standstill. 

And there is no life there.
