Wars are violent manifestations. Civil wars are a misnomer in that they are not civil. In fact they are everything but civil. America is headed down that way. Perhaps the world will too. Killing someone for having an opinion is telling all the moderates that the time for talk is over. Guess what happens next?
People like their comforts. I get it. People enjoy technology. They think it helps them live better lives. False. Technology makes people needy. They need, nay, crave comfort. That’s where Government steps in. They provide the comfort People pay for. That’s how Government controls the People. They lose their Freedom. But, hey as long as they have wi-fi, it’s all good, right! That’s how Corruption works.
We are Custodians of the Present. Our lives do not belong to us alone. We are beholden to our Parents and Children. Where we come from and what we leave behind is what the Future will remember. Our Fear of Death Mars our Life.
Be kind. Be supportive. And don’t add to the total sum misery of humanity. Make your parents proud. Be honest but use diplomacy as much as you can. Be assertive without being a nincompoop. Naked honesty may be expedient but hurting people never is. Rise above the fray. Life is tough. Don’t make it tougher.
It's never the dog in the fight that counts. It's always the fight in the dog.
