What exactly is a "Contextual Musing"?

Well, it is several things all at once...

It is a statement. It is a thought. It is a beginning. It is an expression. It is a question. It is a prayer. It is a conclusion. It is an opinion. It is a feeling.

It embraces all things and in that embrace it is nothing.

Yet, it is something.

It is an attempt to make you think.

---

We are increasingly imprisoned by our organizations, processes, systems, and "shoulds". Passion, which is inherently equitable, has been eviscerated, and finds itself subservient to the status quo. In this we are all complicit. Yet, we wonder why there is so much rage, why so many feel unsettled. You are not saving yourself or your loved ones through your complicity; the rage will find your doorstep given a new dawn.

~ J. David Zacko-Smith, Contextual Musings, 2006.

Interesting stuff, but what does one "do" exactly so as not to be complicit...to keep rage at bay?
