I tried by gentleness and love to soften marble, but nothing fatigues the body so much as weariness of spirit. Day after day, and almost every day, one meets censure which is felt to be unjust; —but the general result of all this injustice is increased efficiency. Behold, all who are incensed against you shall be put to shame and confounded; those who strive against you shall be as nothing and shall perish, for sloth and greed are ill mated. Lovers of money must sweat and steal. Time and accident develop the darkest schemes. Parents who work with those who threaten their children will be ravished by the World. A bad heart, and a bad cause, are confounding things. The mind, or thought, when not in healthy connection with the soul body rests comfortably in the illusion of knowing. The mind caught by this illusion is unwilling to learn, unwilling to be penetrated by what it does not already think that is understands.   #RandolphNews1 (1 of 12)

There is nothing like a little journey together to make people understand each other. Some might ask why would a parent knowingly work with people who want to harm their offspring? The mind of this type of person is like a censor or a gatekeeper, keeping learning from happening. One lets through only those aspects of the World that are familiar. Often one works with the enemies of their children brilliantly, and is least able to learn, but appears the most capable and does the best within the system. The parent suffers from a superiority complex of learning, a pathology of learning that keeps the soul away through cleverness. Burnout results from one’s affiliations, and it is a symptom that indicates that one’s heart has been misplaced, that it has no body. When one labors like brutes, one’s hearts becomes like theirs, till to eat and have rest becomes all their ambition.  #RandolphNews1 (2 of 12)

A burnt child loves the fire. Caution against sin, even to the innocent, can never be unwholesome. There are few instances in which a series of successful iniquity does not create arrogance and security. However, I have always observed that when people are interrupted in the performance of some egregious stupidity their feelings are hurt. Arrogance will produce submission. The only way to civilize a people is to form in them habits of industry. Every effect is but the cause of another and a subsequent one. In youth, it is love, or lust, makes the World mad: in age, prejudice. Superstition holds a province; pride an empire. Some suspect that people who have mixed race children may hold some prejudice in their hearts towards these kids and that is why they feel it is okay to risk their lives for profits. Conversely, the children, in the same family, who are the same ethnic background are treated as superiors.  #RandolphNews1 (3 of 12)

It is almost like the mixed race individual is seen as deserving all of the pain and anguish the parent has experienced because of their experiences with racism, and it is almost like you are half (half worthless), so you are not a fully human being and deserve no rights, no love, and no happiness. However, they who provoke huge battles (of the heart or mind), and gain but lame victories over themselves, insensibly harden to the habit of distilling sour thoughts from their mischances and form most occurrences. So does the World they combat win on them.  There is no such thing as accident. There is a cause for every disaster: too much cargo, want of foresight, want of pluck. However, even if your parents treat you worse than a stray dog and do not respect you or your life, know that under their prejudice mind set, they love you, it is just hard for them to show. Understand that you are beautiful and keep being a good person. With the letting go of the pain of dejection and the anger that results, you will feel relief from the headache.  #RanolphNews1 (4 of 12)

Trust me, I understand your pain. You are all alone in the World and although your family does you wrong and it may not be safe for you to be around them, you are attached to them. And even when you think about all the evil things they have done to hurt you, you reflect on the past, when you were young, and they loved you because you were a child, and said nice things to you, this may bring tears to your eyes and make you feel really bad. See, when a friend does you wrong, you can cut them off, it may hurt, but there is nothing like being betrayed by your family because of your heritage. However, at the same time, they accept drug dealers, murderers, prostitutes, criminals, and defend the corrupt. The psychological basis of all your pain may feel like you are mourning and this is because your attachment to your family. #RandolphNews1 (5 of 12)

You may feel like, I wish my family loved and supported me, I have no friends, no boyfriend, no girlfriend, no pets, it is just me. If you slip up and cannot pay your bills, where will you go, who can you call? People like this tend to focus on their careers and try to build wealth so they can at least have money as a safety net, but sometimes even financial opportunities are hard to come by because of media rumors and slander. And sometimes people know your circumstances and may exploit you. You need extra money and work 12 hours and make $60, in one dollar bills and change. Someone else asks you to work with them because they need you or they may not make it, after a year of giving nothing back and partying with various people and taking vacations, you find they have not offered you a dime, a gift, nor even said, “Thank you,” because they have seen others exploit you in the same manner, while trying to build your career—family is not always your true friend. #RandolphNews1 (6 of 12)

This may just be a test from God and everything runs its course, one day you will be rewarded, but hang in there and hold the faith. Keep trying to succeed. People are exploited by corporations, family, and friends all the time. While you have not started out yet and do not have much, but are thankful for what you have been blessed with, others have lost millions of dollars, houses, cars, and even their lives behind the wrong attachments. Attachment and dependence occur because we feel incomplete within ourselves; therefore, we seek objects, people, relationships, places, and concepts to fulfill inner requirements. Loss of our family and friends, because of their alliances, is like a loss of our own self.  The more emotional energy invested in an object or person, the greater will be the feeling of loss and the greater the pain associated with the undoing of the bonds of the dependence. #RandolphNews (7 of 12)

Attachment creates dependency, even if you just want to be loved, you are dependent on feeling that emotion. And after wanting to cut a person off because you see they are no good, but they beg you for help, the longer you are there for you, the stronger your bond becomes. And they know that. That type of behavior is really disrespectful and manipulative. Whenever a person attempts to manipulate or control the environment for self-defeating and/or disruptive purposes, he or she may complain constantly about bodily difficulties or the regular routine. The pattern is deigned to elicit sympathy on the one hand and to get out from under responsibility for his or her behavior on the other. Without being diverted by arguments and complaints, they are able to keep control over your decisions and directions. #RandolphNews1 ( 8 of 12)

Manipulative people are significantly different than a kind heart. Their attitudes are hard to understand. However, there is some benefit to being manipulated and pushed beyond your limits. Not only are the people who are abusing you and exploiting you exposing themselves to the World, and your work make have gotten them accepted in their social circles, once word gets out of how they are doing you, they will lose favor. One of the biggest things people fear is being financially betrayed or used, and no one is going to want to hire, work with, or even being in a relationship with someone who knowingly exploits others, especially their own family—it just says you are not a quality person, not someone to be trusted. No one wants their bank account, body, heart, house, nor brains broken. They see your pain and do not want to go through it or be associated with the perpetrators. #RandolphNews1 ( 9 of 12)

You may have praised these people and encouraged those who are exploiting you, but to honor a person in such a condition only makes him or her feel worse, and that is why the nicer you become, the more abusive they become. However, them using you is to your benefit because while you feel they tricked you into working at a menial, monotonous, and unsatisfying take, they neither encourage nor praise you. They make it known all that matters is the job being done. One keeps you involved in the deadly drudgery without sympathy, and they may even punish you. Such a person is hostile and threatening, attempting to frighten others away from you by their vehemence of reaction. A power struggle, either verbal or physical, is to be avoided. To reason with the person is an unreasonable rage and only aggravates the situation. Their main goal is to protect themselves.  #RandolphNews1 ( 10 of 12)

While the person you tried to help may be doing better in their careers, they are actually worse off because people feel less able to cope with them and more undermined and discouraged when working with that individual because you created a false image of them, one that was true for you, but may not actually be the person they are. You may see their potential, not the reality. These people have to want to change their attitudes and personal behaviors. It is a life-style of independence and outrage that they subscribe to. Old age brings more than its share of rage, frustration at the indignities and infirmities of the senile process. It behooves these people to remember the root of anger underneath the upset of the people in later maturity. They feel it is their right to rage against others and dish out their pain that has been directed towards them and you are an easy target as no one protects your civil rights.   #RandolphNews1 (11 of 12)

These perpetrators are mobilizing the resources of a lifetime of experiences to fight against those things that diminish and oppress us all, and you may represent that in their eyes because of your heritage, bloodline, or name. Eventually your anger and betrayal that is turned inwards, will reverse—against the situation, against the task maker, against the injustice. One you “blow up” and “go off,” the depression lifts and more normal interaction occurs. God might just use the people who are nearest to death to point to a new life. We just have to accept this is our life, change the type of people we attract, feel worthy of allowing someone to help you, you do not always have to be a helper, and accept that this is not permanent. Romantic relationships are not life-long, families break up, and one day your dog will go to Heaven. #RandolphNews1 (12 of 12)
