Dear ATS
Once again I find myself stuck in the gray area form, with fragments of an idea I have been molding in my mind for quite sometime now.
The pieces don't all place together perfectly hence my attempt to communicate this vague yet intriguing ideal that's been picking at my brain for
quite a while.
You see this observation is merely the opinion of roughly 1/7000 000 000 of other possible interpretations. Single forms of existence functioning and
reacting around other single forms of existence if you will.
I'm sure countless of you members are avid daydreamers with vivid imaginations of what the world could be like for you.
I'm sure my logical/ analytical members can still stop to appreciate the chaotic beauty of raw nature.
Humans being the complex biological organisms that they are with sentient capabilities to form conception and memories whilst partaking in the
physical existence they interpret as ''reality''.
Not only are we creative and inventive but extremely social by nature.
As if its a pre-programmed code within our DNA that binds people to be dependent on one another in many respective ways.
Yet where does it all begin?, forget the questions regarding the origin of the universe and regard the origins of your awareness. That 2pound lump of
fat skin folded neatly to fit within your cranium snugly, like an embryonic sack for the soul.
This consciousness that we have of every thing around us. This being projections of analog inputs from the physical processed by the brain into the
mental.
Like a portal for the non-physical to interact within the physical.
Truly remarkable this life business, If you really sit down and think about it. How all this came to be, all the intricate systems and interactions
that collectively form the natural platform for us to build and customize our existence.
This is where things go a bit pear shaped my friends, where I get lost down a black hole of confusion. Lets consider this notion for a second, It all
begins in the mind, this perception is basically like a screening in our brain that is fed through all the inputs that our body provides.
Let's take a look at the world currently, irregardless of all the shiny toys that we get to play with. It would be undeniable that we are expending
resources that are irreplaceable, advocating a profit based system that leaves its majority deprived.
Where knowledge is exchanged for popularity and ruthless competition is seen as normal.
That segregation still exists between races and that in both extremes people die from starving and other from over-eating.
Where peaceful religions kill.
Where lying is a skill and not a psychological condition.
People we are all warped by what we see, hear, feel, smell, and even taste.
We are failing to function from a block in the very thing that allows us this experience. Forget the bloody Illuminate/devils/dark ones/reptilians or
what ever other controlling force you believe in.
We constantly throw blame in all directions until everybody is a suspect of paranoia and our natural will to trust one another is as dead as our will
to thrive.
Yes my dear friends, I believe the virus that is eating away at the prospects of a peaceful earth is in fact us.
We all have the power to change perception, to explore new possibilities and to think open-minded.
It's way easier being considerate towards a fellow man than it is wasting energy to maim or hurt them.
It's not rocket science to understand that this unique gift of existence is shared all around you.
It's way easier working with help than it is trying to be better than everyone who is willing to .
Sharing is not that bad if everybody does it. Imagine the variety. All for all to explore.
But No, its a tough world out there, we need as much stuff to live ''happily'' yet we carry through each day with no clue as to why we are so unhappy.
People this is not sensationalism, people are smart and evolved enough to function without massacring each other. People have the capacity to
tolerate difference as long as respect is mutual between both parties. I think we want to love, we want to thrive. There is only one trap that we need
to avoid. You know, that dark and lonely void of living a lie. Not realizing that fear is the only shackle holding you back from your happiness.
What is this perfection we speak of, I don't even see it in the workings of the universe. Its a fallacy, a fib, a target that will never be reached
because its a mirage you create before yourself.
We have the capacity to rise above, to work together. You help were you can and so do I, 7billion small efforts make one huge big change.
So let the mind explore, don't run from the scary parts, it just a gateway to a brighter view. So I say to heck with the insecurities, the grudges,
the hate mongering, name calling and bloody fear. It's simple you will die one day, and respective of what you believe to occur afterwards, consider
that you have the capability to accomplish and explore wondrous possibilities and experiences before it's over.
So leave you with this thought in mind. Is the capacity to feel and empathize less important for sustainability that the superiority of intellect over
one another?
