KEEP A WATCHFUL EYE 1

Keep a watchful eye; as if you are asleep.
This is the best time to see.
To feign deep sleep; then nothing hides, everything is laid bare as if none is looking when all have gone to sleep.
These are moments when nature releases its best, worst; when all have retired and fast asleep in indolence, ignorance having eaten, drunk to their fill and think nothing more is left.
The heftiest of bird, beast, fly, crawl out of the burrow when all is quiet not to attract notice.
To this end the Son of man change water into wine of which the latter was better than the former when men had drunk to their fill and thought nothing is left of the wedding and had retired to sleep.
Keep a watchful eye on the frenemy; the carrier of bad news, threats, information not requested to you when it's needless, unnecessary, irritating to your ears as the business of your schedules wouldn't allow your listening. They come at times when they are not welcome, when all they have to say is a big disturbance, distraction, at the moment but demand of your hearing as a must for your redemption as if they are your salvation.
They are always ordinary in affairs and prioritise matters of lesser importance to pick faults.
They lay a hidden envy of all that is glamorous, charismatic and outspoken, that's all you need to be to attract the wrath, evil upon you.
This is the hall mark of nothingness, to rebel, opposed the great, meaningful to add meaning, attraction to oneself. Those who are nothing aim at this opposition to make and leave an ugly scar through slander which when digged into is pure sham and folly and unnecessary opposition on that which is tagged beautiful, attractive, standing out to the public as such an ugly scar would be a remembrance of them.
They who slaughter the great, assassinate the famous, men of impact and valour to live a monument thus make name for themselves to be remembered by history. These are the nothing of the society, all the do is to destroy aeons of civilizations, wonders of the words to make history as some men of honour might also wish for themselves such a role and might want to it as all their honour, exploits still leaves them obscured.
They pose as the graveyard for all that is beautiful, great and an ending to all charisma, glamour if not spotted.
They are hard to spot; a dark cat, a black panther hidden under the cover of the night.
These are your great enemies. The ones you cannot spot.
Cast yourself into a deep sleep and turn open the eye of the mind.
Only through the eye of the mind ( discernment can they be seen).
For, only the blind see through the eyes.
For while men sleep through indolence, stress, impromptu, inappropriateness, complacence, mediocrity, obstinacy, procrastination,then the enemy comes to work to plant tares.
These are the best moments to spot and track the enemy: when the body is retired to bed to rest in body and soul.
Then comes the enemy to work as if none is awake, full of courage and energy. It's a great shock to the enemy when caught impromptu, for at these moments, the minds, spirit of men is dull and blind due to stress, ignorance, complacence, impromptu, and so is their sight for they are not expecting it.
At these moments when the mind is dull and fully occupied and none watching, the enemy dances to its best; expressing nothing other than its whole embodiment as it thinks none is awake.
