Tacit Approval = Acceptance. That is Unacceptable in virtually every circumstance.
Tacit approval & Implicit Acceptance. Neither will ever benefit you!!
I write this Newsletter today while taking a breather from my fight against the mask mandates and the Covid manipulation being brought against us at every turn. This fight is I believe just getting started and is one that at every moment is gaining someone’s attention when they wake up and begin to see the damage that is being done and the outrageous acts that are so easily perpetrated against us by those who are elected, paid officials that have sworn an oath that honestly is not worth the words on the paper they are written on to most I have come across lately. The Education community is unfortunately so beholden to unions and institutions that I fear there is no salvation in any form for them going forward. None of my emails, calls or public objections have been met with a favorable response if none at all. It is tragic! But what cannot kill me will only make me more determined. They ought not have garnered so much of my attention.
NOW! Too the subject matter in the heading. It is all relative to my opening. Tacit approval is in all things a means of surrender. The act of failure too fight. The commission of defeat. The pure surrender to those who seek to harm your interests and force your capitulation or subjugate you to their ideology or chosen agenda.
Anyone who knows me even a little bit will surely tell you that this is not a word that will ever describe me in the slightest. I am pre wired to say no in most situations even if the circumstance seems great. My Instincts and past experience inform that what seems too good usually is anything but. And those who exert effort in explaining benefits most always have an agenda or ulterior motive that conflicts with my own well being. When these things affect my families well being? Well then we go right back to my opening. You will have garnered all of my attention. Full circle when you take the time to analyze it all. Crazy as that is. But like my mom always said! I do not understand you or where you came from.
Some background to explain where the self perceived wisdom emanated. As far back as I can remember accepting my situation or surroundings was something that I met with great difficulty. Walking through a housing project as a child with my mother and two younger brothers I was surprised when my mother stopped outside the entrance to one of the buildings and suddenly stopped in my tracks. My mother instructed me to move with her. I refused. My mother commanded me to follow her. I refused. My mother threatened to give me smack! I pondered my choices.
Follow my mother or get a smack? I acquiesced but begrudgingly. My tacit approval was non verbal. But verbally I stated a fact. I would follow her for now. But I was not staying.
Every moment of the eleven years I spent living there was an endeavor towards a singular goal. Getting out! Removing myself from a circumstance that was to me beneath me. Public housing, Food stamps, public assistance, welfare.. No I don’t think so. Those years were filled with trial, tribulations, beatings, hunger, physical assault, racism. But not once did I ever change course. Even to the point of refusing acts of charity. Going so far as to refusing goodwill from neighbors. Never once going to get free meals from school while actually being as hungry as one could be. For me to accept any of that would doom me to capitulation. God gave me will. He blessed me in actuality and I thank him often for that gift.
So what is the relevance? It is a belief. That no what matter what you can overcome. You can change your circumstance or situation. There is only defeat when you quit fighting! These people that are perpetrating this tyranny against us and our families are waging a war against us. Do not Give Tacit Approval!! Be heard. Fight harder!! Never quit and you will at least walk away from your fight with self respect and the realization that it is all worth it. God will bring light to darkness. But just in case it isn’t on your timing. Pack a flashlight for these creeps.
Writing to you from a distant place. My world. Most aren’t invited in.
