Compromise


Most women with children know compromise

Some fathers too


These are human compromises


Then there are the wrong kind made out of weakness or perceived weakness


The team type of compromise

Work compromises

Moral and ethical one's too

In fact if we look at life compromise is everywhere

Or is it?

There are those who resolutely use everyone else in their pursuit of glory or fame


Interesting how often the media hypes up unpleasant people whose only claim to fame is that they have trodden on more people than most

Used others

Abused others

Time to see it as it is

A refusal to compromise can be considered admirable in some contexts

However it is selfishness in most


We do not need to pretend that unpleasant selfish people are worthwhile because they have been more grubby than anyone else


Let them entertain each other

Let the media examine itself for lauding unpleasant people

For it's pursuit of circulation at all costs

Maybe they deserve each other
creating a circle of mutual feeding

For the rest of us though

Continue to learn the art of compromise

Leads to higher levels of consciousness evolution


And consciousness evolution is what life is truly for

Compromise is part of our journey.

Selfishness is there for us to see it for what it is and to grow beyond
