Everywhere

I feel that;
My perceptions have often concluded that;

Bullies can be found everywhere,
And although this is not true of “everyone” of at least certain categories,
Still,
Some possible examples of forms bullies could manifest in might just be;
highly regarded business executives,
Entertainers,
Advertisers,
Customers,
Highly talented public speaking upcoming elected officials,
Sports, internet and “reality” TV stars,
Law enforcement officers,
Military “comrades” and officials in addition to opposing forces,
Military contractors,
Famous musicians in addition to sold out politicians among several talented intentional and unintentional comedians,
..,
Weapon manufacturers,
Arms dealers,
Terrorists,
Assassins,
Oil Drillers,
Actors.. producers.. directors..
Fact deniers,
Recreational and prescription drug dealers,
Judges,
Lawyers,
Inmates,
Correction Officers,
Supervisors,
Coworkers,
Insurance agents,
Lobbyists,
Martial artists,
Narcissistic religious and/or spiritual leaders,
Fundamentalists,
Preachers,
Televangelists,
Conspiracy theorists,
Mobsters,
Gangsters,
Bankers,
Stock Traders,
Strategic Investors,
Schemers,
Computer Hackers,
Coaches,
Drill Instructors,
“Motivational” speakers,
“Self-help” authors,
Social media influencers,
Institutional leaders,
Commentators,
Classmates,
Team players,
Teachers,
Professors,
Administrators..,

Bullying I’d say,
Is one of the remnants among humans,
Of survival of the “fittest”/social Darwinistic behavior,
Of egos seeking to brutally control,
Defeat,
Mutilitate,
Or somehow feed an insatiable sadistic impulse that targets those most vulnerable and readily available,

Bullies might be highly skilled actors,
They might claim to “not” be “like” all the other “bullies”,
They might claim to be “different”,
The one who we can “trust”,
Until they once again,
Unleash their dark side,
That shows in their own way,
That they are no different,
No matter how skilled they were,
At hiding it,

Yet the more I practice acceptance,
And just continue breathing through it,
Hopefully,
I feel less pain by trying to resist what I might never be able to avoid nor change to any preferable extent,

So hopefully,
I’ll still find and sustain,
more and more peace,
In the ongoing present
