IT KILLED THE CAT, THEY SAY!

TODAY'S QUOTE:
Curiosity is one of those insatiable passions that grow by gratification... Sarah Scott


The urge for answers can drive us to pretty dangerous territory and create havoc where peace should reign. One tiny grain of curiosity can erect a mountain out of even the smallest mole hill. Some things should be taken on faith alone, or walked away from... look hard enough for a negative and you end up creating one.

Prying is an action taken to disassemble something, and if used against someone is offensive in the extreme. Intruders can be shot for trespassing... and most times it is classified as justifiable homicide. Once curiosity gets a firm grip of the wheel our destination becomes the first cliff it finds. They say, "it killed the cat" .... and it truly is the death of many things besides felines.

I like knowing stuff, but I do not make it a habit to go digging without an invitation and even then I mostly just listen to words and absorb vibrations. I've been blessed or cursed with the ability to feel other peoples energy in a very enhanced fashion. I have helped many, but I never did anything just for the sake of knowing.

Curiosity does not enter into this formula, and I'm thankful for that fact... and doubly so now that I know first hand what havoc runaway wondering can inspire. A mind saturated with curiosity magnifies every negative emotion it stumbles upon. The need to know overshadows good sense and quickly turns even the wisest person into a fool.

I learned a valuable lesson about myself and identified a mortal enemy that will never have the power to attack me again. The pain created was brutal enough to get my undivided attention, but not fatal. I will never feed that demon again... and it did not take 9 lives for me to understand that I am much wiser than any cat. Here's to wisdom, hard earned, and well learned. Think about it.... let it ride.... then decide!!!
