Greetings good citizen, you are all familiar with that ancient bible passage that warns 'vengeance is mine' sayeth the Lord.
Ever wonder 'what's taking him/her/it so long?' Evil flourishes everywhere but YOU are supposed to leave it alone because it's 'not your job'.
Well, there must be more 'elasticity' in the universe than originally estimated because this existence seems capable of stretching a considerable distance before it starts to bounce back towards 'balance'.
Assuming the universe is equal parts good & bad [hard to figure since good & bad are both 'relative' and not 'absolute'.] The good (eventually and relatively) is 'equal' to the bad...so life will never be a 'bowl of cherries' because the bowl of disgusting stuff is right behind it, waiting for its turn!
The idea being that good and bad will cancel one another out, leaving a 'neutral' outcome, the universe becoming a bland paste of meh.
But it's not like that, is it? So where did this outlandish idea come from? Could the source be the same people that designed our 'punish the poor' justice system?
Probably.
How fortunate for us all that you can fill an individual's head with a considerable amount of utter nonsense and they are still capable of functioning adequately!
More the pity so few of us remind ourselves that this is the 'starting point' our civilization kicks off from on a daily basis...
We've gotten this far without wiping ourselves out...what could go wrong?
Pretty cavalier attitude for a species well versed in the consequence of 'one false move and you're dead'. Our history drips in blood thanks to the mentally unstable dictating what 'good & bad' are.
Humans have only been on this planet for 300,000 years and thus far they have been years of PAIN. We seem totally unable to prevent the insane from seizing power.
Should we give it up as a bad job and pray for a quick extinction? Probably isn't going to happen because mankind long ago took to the stars and started marooning the ones they didn't like there. [a couple of hundred thousand years is NOT long enough for us to have 'evolved' here.]
Either that or 'we' are tools that were discarded after we had achieved what we were designed to do and everything afterwards is just programming designed to keep us 'on task'.
Whoever made us wasn't particularly interested in justice or equality. They were interested in getting the job done as quickly as possible (because we do everything like our lives depended on it...so it's probably part of our core programming.)
Heads full of nonsense and absolutely 'rudderless'. What does that tell you? For starters we weren't 'built to last'. Secondly, thinking isn't our primary (or even secondary) purpose. We were built to mine and once we did what we were made to do our makers took a hike!
Totally unknown is whether or not our 'maker' was a criminal on the run or a lonesome scout, stranded after his ship lost/exhausted its supply of gold.
What we do know is we kept doing what we were 'made' to do and treat each other like we are totally expendable. It's no comfort knowing the moron that created us was equally as clueless as to what their 'purpose' was in the universe.
Maybe life is the culmination of combining good and bad, good for us but not so much for those unfortunate enough to encounter us.
Um, we all 'know' the 'vengeance is mine' bit but most of us let it sail right between our ears, in one side and out the other while we 'retain' the meaningful part, the MINE as we think to ourselves, 'NOW You're gonna PAY!'
Did I mention those unfortunate enough to encounter us? Check.
Sort of the long way home and another exercise in belaboring the obvious but none are so blind as those who refuse to see.
Thanks for letting me inside your head,
