When it comes to human society we have to believe that there is hope among all the chaos. It is that sheer hope that keeps us alive. Keeps us striving for a better place to kick off our shoes.
As a child I believed that adults knew everything. I couldn't wait to grow up so I could be just as smart as they were. In that reality everything was answered. The future was bright. All of the mysteries were solved. I just had to grow up to find out what I couldn't understand back then. As I gradually grew I realize that this wasn't the case. I started to surpass the intelligence of adults. Now of course as a teenager you think you know everything. Taking that into consideration, after thinking about it as an adult, this was not the case at all. There are no secret books. There are no answers. Adults, as it seems, don't have their shit together.
I see it in the corruption of government and education. Standing in line for a long period of time knowing that I could solve the issue better than the person behind the desk to get this crowd moving aggravates the hell out of me. The reasoning behind why we don't have things figured out and answered is not because of intelligence, but because of goals. The goals have changed or maybe it was never the intention to become an intelligent species. No, the goal is to make as much money as possible and to become as powerful as possible. In order to achieve this you need to fool the American public or the human population in order to keep them from finding out your bag . If you have seen the movie Idiocracy you understand what I'm saying. This is our future friends if we do not change the goals and perspective of the human race. At this point it is very hard to do. People have lost control over their governments. As soon as we start to question them we are brought back down to our knees. Put in our place. What do we do about it? Well hell,we have no time or energy to protest. The reason for this is that pure survival is our only intention. Just to survive is difficult enough. We're too tired to protest after a hard day's work. All we want to do is sit back and relax and be entertained and by entertainment I mean watch the news which of course is acting as a mind control agent. You're tired, you're dumb, watch this, listen to this. You can't fight it. You accept it.
There's another 1% that we should be focusing on. Not the elite force of world power and the rich but the 1% of people who are aware and willing to fight. We know what's happening and cannot be duped. I am the 1% and will keep fighting with these articles of awareness as well as with the radio show Simplicity, in hope to find the rest of my friends in the 1% and open up the minds of the others who still have a slither of dignity and energy. There are children running our hospitals. Children running our schools. Children running our governments. Children running the media. With a child you can't scold them. No, then you look like the ass. You can't reason with them. You can't hit them. So what do you do with them? Send them to their room? How do you do that, when they have all this supposed power behind them? Do you leave yourself? Watch it blow up from afar? Do you try to save this child who clearly needs help? To reason with this child is impossible. They know what they want. If they want that toy bad enough they will scream and scream until they get their way. People who make the most noise wins. Calm the kid down by throwing the damn toy in their face just so you can relax? It's an easy out, but not quite an actual easy fix. What is the cause of this? What is the reasoning behind this that started it all? In the beginning when we were children we were told sayings like "Don't judge a book by its cover". When I was told this, I said OK and I took that in life and I used it. Wouldn't you know, it worked. It has opened up my mind to not be a racist. I don't see race at all actually. All I see are assholes and non assholes. Are you a good or bad person? That's all I need to know. I don't care what you look like. Don't judge a book by its cover has worked for me. Why did it work for me and not others? Maybe because of the disappointments you see daily like watching a police officer break the law and getting away with it which makes it seem socially acceptable. Makes you want to throw your hands up in the air and give up yourself. So when children see adults judging books by covers, clearly being racist, the goal is torn. Should I do what they say? You wonder, were those words of wisdom just to shut me up? Just another sugar pill? You realize that, maybe they took in the information and decided it was bullshit and not good advice at all because that's the type of world we are supposed to live in or was it a transition in one's life where you wanted to be a good person and decided the only way I'm going to be accepted and succeed in this endeavour is to drop everything that I've learned and become this droll sad sack doppelganger of a being with a number on my forehead.
I believe it's important to use those lessons. It's amazing how one can take lessons from people who are children them self. Makes you question the validity of the experiment. I didn't become universal with people because of judging books by its cover. I have many diverse friends because of it. It's important to realize that we can't change everyone especially the old dogs. That's why I ask you, the reader, to reinstate that message in your life and spread the good word. It may seem far fetched but it's a damn good start.
Be aware, be respectful, keep it simple.
