Profiling

They say the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree but every apple has its own seeds. If we stopped calling it profiling and started calling it “proactive intelligence screening” or “high alert detecting”, people would be saying “Well, it’s about time”.

You sit alone by choice, dismiss any attention sent your way. You’re someone who is hard to get close to because trust isn’t something you share too often. It keeps you from being hurt by people but it also keeps you from having anyone in your life.

You’re detached by necessity, most likely a painful past that pushed you into this direction. Maybe pushed into solitude by life and staying there by choice? Every time you read into something you miss the soul, while searching for the motive. 

There’s always that one group of people who think they have special permission to terrorize anybody who disagrees with them. Whichever group is in ascension at a given moment is both unlikely to acknowledge the existence of abuses or bias. 

I don’t like being profiled. Doesn’t matter what the truth is. If you liked my profile, raise your hands, if not, raise your standards. LinkedIn rewards the most exciting looking slave. If you’re willing to go through the humiliation ritual, you win the job. 

Here is the harsh truth that shifts everything once you accept it. Wise men talk because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something. I’m quite mysterious. Mostly because I don’t even know what I’m doing. That quiet guy at work with the geeky glasses…

could well be a bumbling idiot 🙂‍↕️

  2. Wise words. It’s better to be quiet and thought a fool than to speak and dispel all doubt. 🤣🤣🙃

  3. Some people can overly be guarded sometimes. Always playing it safe and striving so hard to stay on the safe side. That’s exhausting for me, and life doesn’t really work that way o. You can’t spend your entire life trying to protect yourself from every possible hurt and still expect to experience life fully.

  4. My favourite quote

    Every time you read into something you miss the soul, while searching for the motive.
