All are united yet seperate on the Spiritual path

Arrogance.

By Staff Dragon: Draconis

Humans.
Upright Hairless Hominids.
So many of you.
So many who don’t care.
So many that should care - but do not.
So many that do not even know that they should care.
Why ever do I still bother with you?

In the utterly unlikely event there is still anyone serving and working
at that MysticWitch.com online establishment -
I am Ouroboros ‘Rob’ Astorious.
‘Rob’ for those of you with the attention span of a flea.
As you have apparently returned to active service -
I have deigned to continue my efforts at enlightenment.
I am the Staff Dragon.

Shall we begin?
Do pay attention.
This is important.

Arrogance.
The unnatractive and unappealing behavioural trait that says -
“I am better than you because I am better than you.”
In your Human species that is so very common an accurance.
Psychologically that mind-set and attitude is counter-productive
if not outright non-productive. You alienate youself with that
obsequious ‘holier than thou’ attitude.

Here are some Primal Egg level realities:
You are all Human.
You are all the same species.
Skin colour is a less than insignificant outward physical distinction.
You have taken a vanishly minor physical differentiator between
Human genotypes and made sociological and cultural divides.
Yes - Today in middle and lover economic ‘class’ communities and environments
there are some decided differences between what is considered the ‘white’,
‘black’, ‘red’, ‘yellow’ and ‘other’ ‘races’.
There is a highly disruptive and disturbing trend in certain northern U.S.
backcounties and southern U.S. urban areas for a ‘white power’ movement.
No. This is not - and you must clearly know that this is not and never has
been - anything empowering and positive. This is Human vs. Human
primal ‘race hatred’. This is arrogance at its darkest. This has nothing to
do with the work and workings of certain ‘white-lighters’. Calling upon the Primus
and His Lady is far different than the gutteral grunts and chants and occasional burned
cross of the Movement and its philosophical relative - the Klan. Wearing a white robe
while burning a cross on somebody’s front yard was not that uncommon an occurance.
Even today it may still happen.

Arrogance.
It is disruptive.
It is destructive.
It is disrespectful of your fellow Humans -
as if you even care about such a detail…..
It need not always be a burnt cross in a front yard.
It can also be very insidiously subtle.

You have the “Manager” - who because of the title thinks that because of the title
“Manager” things need to be managed.
You have the “Gurus". Let us all never forget where that insanity may lead.
You have the “Celebrity” who becomes famous simply because of being famous.
Child of fame, inheritor of family or corporate wealth it does not matter.
Arrogance is not about being better - it is actually a sign of extreme insecurity and deep personal inadequacy and weakness. It is overcompensation for internal psychological and emotional imbalance and lack of supportive structure.

Arrogance.
It is not pretty.
It is ugly and dangerous.
It is not just a Human trait.
I am a Draconis.
To you Human’s that is a Dragon.
Your Mistress Ravenfyre is quite correct.
So too is your Renegade.
We Draconis are not always likeable.
We are often not likeable at all.
We can often be what you Humans consider ‘evil’.
We are Dragons.
We are Sons & Daughters of the Primal Egg. We have been around for a
very long time. We live in the Shadows and Darker Places. We have seen the
Dark Side. Some of Us tend towards the Lighter Shades. Some of Us are
the Dark Side. It is simply who and what We as Draconis are.
Arrogance is an almost inborn and natural state for a Draconis.
So too is something else. A Mind and Spirit. Some Look towards the Dark.
Some look towards the Light. This is true for you Humans also.
So listen to your Staff Dragon.
Arrogance is ugly and dangerous.
You are not better than anyone else.
No. You are not.
Not unless you have a skill, talent, ability or First Mother given gift.
You are Hunan.
Stop being so Draconian.
I’m the Staff Dragon around here -
You’re Not…..
