Greetings good citizen, perhaps one of the most sensitive subjects writers like me deal with is that of inescapability. What rankles some about my 'harping' is the 'inevitability' of it all.
Why even bring it up if you can't do anything?
Oh, but bringing it up IS 'doing something'. If you can't raise awareness, the problem/situation will persist out of shear inertia!
You may be able to 'retreat' but you can't escape existence...including what that implies [that even death may not 'liberate' you from this awful place.]
Sure, throwing up the walls of mental resistance temporarily relieves you of having to think about your 'immortal fate' but it does zero to help you along on your journey.
What journey is that? Who knows...some call it the endless trek for 'enlightenment' but in the end everything is 'relative' making enlightement 'unachieveable'. Is crossing the 'realization' finish line enough?
How sad is it the answer is 'insufficient data'?
Back to your ass and my being stuck to it.
Better is also a 'relative' term/state of mind. The part that isn't 'relative' is the parts we can agree on like freedom from pain, suffering or mental anguish.
Each 'personal journey' involves at least a degree of all of these...on a personal level, inflicting any of the above on anyone else only prolongs YOUR trip [not that the insane realize this...and if you've slipped a few cogs you could care less too!]
Why am I on YOUR posterior? Because in order to acheive 'relative' improvement we need as much cooperation as possible.
Got another pan handling e-mail from some politician this morning, looking for what else?
The guy isn't even from my state never mind district and I don't believe in funding politics period.
[Part & parcel with that they're gonna sell you out to the highest bidder regardless of what they promise you, never mind ask YOU what YOU think should be done! Absolutely pisses me off that these self-appointed 'revolutionaries' are waging war on the status quo without once holding a public forum to learn what the public WANTS!]
What does the public 'want'?
Again we return to: the answer is relative to who you ask.
What does EVERYBODY want? PEACE, what do they want after that? JUSTICE...ironically since there can NEVER be either without the third thing, we will never enjoy either one...and the third thing is EQUALITY.
Considering how 'human nature' [read those who regularly skin the rest of us] use 'inequality' to keep us at each other's throats, isn't the problem nestled in with 'the essence of criminality'?
That very first question that has grown unchecked with the 'death' of our flimsiest creation,(God) is that of where does the public good end and the individual good begin?
Those skinning the rest of us will adamantly defend their actions by insisting they are being deprived [with zero regard for what THEY are depriving others of.]
If you can't demonstrate your 'understanding' of the problem, you will fail to fix it.
Again I will leave this one here so you may 'process it' like yesterday's 'parable'.
Thanks for stopping by,
