When stripped of everything you have whether it be what you own or the people you love around you, or religion or whatever you hold dear to your heart, we become savage. All mentally stable humans that have a common sense of reality when taken away from everything present you have will fight for their very own survival. Though very pessimistic I find this to be true, like everything else we are apart of we are still one with everything else, we are animal. It doesn’t comfort me when I take a approach saying that all humans are naturally evil but seeing everything around me I find this to be what we are apart of in everyday society.
We are sinners, we are whoremongers, the prime factor in us is self gratification, yet we still have that light in us that helps us to show grace. We have the determination to compel to do what we want whither it be for our own salvation or the help of others. What might you say is this? Though we are animal, this separates us from the rest, we have a surplus of good and rewarding actions. Not all of us operate just for the benefit of ones self, though we do come across this more often in present day circumstance. Most politicians are for own personal gain, television personalities are dog eat dog, and the media always tries to put you down. This is, as we know it, our present day reality and this makes us more and more like robots or creatures without a simple view of what we care about and what we need are two different things, than what we call the human populace.
With everything we have to this day we become more immune to what people throw at us but is this immune a defense or numbing of? We can say that we are good people in this present day but if you look hundreds or even thousands of years into the past the human populace would look at us and claim that even the most culturally acceptable man would be a devil. Why is this? Is it because we are numb? Or do we just advance as fast as technology does? We are keeping up with the times and that is killing our own morals and our own self actualization, we are truly becoming a lost people, a phrase I like to say a lot 'becoming a dyeing breed.
Look at everyone in the world, look at this man, look at that woman, who do you seem fit to become a leader? Who do you trust the most to hold your secrets? In all reality none of us are because of the single fact of emotion. Every living person has an Intelligence Quotient lower than seventy when emotion comes into play. We make stupid mistakes, we do stupid things and we do them even more while emotionally evolved than when we become intoxicated, whatever substance it may be. But this thing we call emotion becomes very important to us. It enables us to do what we feel that feels right, it helps us to cope with everyday things and it especially separates us from everything else because that is what makes us human. If we had no emotion we would have no mercy we would have no compassion we would have no care in the world what others think and we would do everything for our own personal gain. Does this mean that this generation is becoming more animatronic than past generations? I would say so.
We lack emotion, that is simple enough. We watch our murder investigations, we kill our fellow men, we do what we please, every one of us and we say we do this all because its entertainment. We are becoming numb to what society has to offer and we are becoming no greater than the machine, in fact we are becoming just like them. We are becoming immune to what this world to offer and at the pace that we have been going at, we can no longer turn back. We look at dead bodies on television though our own eyes and we do not realize that that body is no longer in motion, that that body has lost all of its human characteristics and I weep. Because we are just like those lifeless bodies on the ground and in the lakes, we have become just like them everything we know is over and we can now start trusting those lifeless bodies more than our fellow man. Humans deceive, humans are cruel, and humans are war freak psychopaths, and there is nothing else that we can do.
We created this, even me, even you the fellow reader and I think to myself what can we do? Unity, have moral convictions that we are growing more and more to lack, stop following the main stream and do something that you please to do for your very own self. Now this sounds like what we are trying to avoid, but it isn’t. Fighting for your own personal salvation physically and socially is different than fighting for your salvation interpersonally and mentally. Treat others like your own, let them do what they want because it is there life but be there to help them when times get rough. You might now think I am contradicting myself, but im not. There are different levels and paths for every single thing you do and if you do it equally, overall and collectively it will never hurt the thing formally known as the human populace. Extremes is what hurts people, people that do thing in either black or white, people that have no understanding for their fellow man.
Show that acceptance for others, and accept yourself, do yourself a favor and do what you always wanted to do. For you are a rock and neither the winds nor the oceans will tear you apart for as long as you don’t let them. Don’t create the illusions of what you think make you happy. Always remember individuality is key and will be our very own salvation when everything that seems wrong stares us in the face. I wish you the best of luck, the generation formally known and the human populace. I wish you the best of years.
Remember me
