Impressions

Colossians 2:8 New English Translation (NET Bible)

Be careful not to allow anyone to captivate you through an empty, deceitful philosophy

 that is according to human traditions and the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ.

 

 

Impressions.

 

Many orders and directions are shown... to work their way into a new sphere

Trust to follow for changes prone are setting the pace for a new culture here.

 

All things work together for the good ... as we try to develop employees

and as our plans are understood ... the more valuable the same issues

 

To form a new culture we'll praise the good ... and the failures we don't mention.

Through time humanity was misunderstood so now we'll change to good intentions.

 

No more imposed discipline is needed ... every one will reach for the best within.

Now to follow obedience focussed on yesterdays ... and what before might have been.

 

Self-discipline should be a treasure ... but now with teams we’ll decide the lot.

Manipulating now the pleasure to show history's lessons have been long "forgot".

 

The team will decide on another’s values ... as birds of a larger flock.

It will rule the whole as a prelude ... for the ones who believe or not

 

The flock forms around each other's talent and in such will prepare the way.

The mediocrity unites the investment ... in time and debate for their sake.

 

Cross the boundary of their united existence will set him apart for their goals.

United belligerence not muffled or hidden ... to be proved right in their souls.

 

To work  together and united to stand ... is worthwhile and well-desired

to let then average standards pretend to develop higher levels ... so inspired.

 

It is like wishing for reality to change ... according to one’s own wants and wishes

and everyone so to walk hand in hand ... eating and being filled from empty dishes.

 

If everyone was like me “a copy” ... would this world much better be?

Or would it be like stored in a"floppy" to be used by many a "has-been"?
