Just sit there and you will get promoted.

Kadizzle has always wondered about the meek. The Bible says the Meek shall inherit the Earth. It could happen. For years Kadizzle has observed that those who just shut up and sit there do very well. Don't make waves has worked well for a lot of people. In the old days when Kadizzle had a job one thing was clear, ideas were not important. If you wanted to get ahead just sit and wait. Being quite and passive was a successful strategy. If you did nothing, you could do nothing wrong. One guy might have two bad ideas and one brilliant idea. The company saw him as a trouble maker. The guy who did nothing never caused a problem, he got the promotion.

In a society with free speech, it is amazing how people are afraid to say anything. All around us are frauds of every sort, but nobody says anything because the fear they may offend someone. The guys on Wall Street can rob the country blind, and have for years, but no one says anything because they don't want to seem anti social. Those who are not meek take advantage of the meek on a daily basis. The meek acquiesce to every kind of injustice because they so fear speaking up. When God said the meek shall inherit the Earth was that a compliment or an insult? I think he was saying "If that is all the better you can do, this is all you get". You have every right in the world to speak up for what you think is right, why don't you do it?
