I feel so bipolar these days. I feel I know the truth and yet I don't see HOW my POV could have any impact. I am not a bit worried about "souls" and cry for the bodies of a beautiful world. I see a suicide course at play today with people CHEERING it on gleefully.Posted by Tintin (here)
spirit of the thread which simply asks two questions: what's happening. and why? and invites everyone to address those with their own ideas many of which are very likely to overlap.
I feel a deep sense of alarm for the future of living creatures. Only humans pollute our own nests. Living enveloped inside and out by poisons is readily embraced by those who have been called the "leaders and lucky ones".
To me it is so simple, NATURE is lawful, is powerful, is OUR BEINGNESS. The war with nature started when commodification of resources became the purpose of "our reality". No one seems to deeply question where we have arrived through "better living with chemistry". The poisoning began with the beginning of history.
The ends of all common efforts are murders by way of arsenic, lead, mercury and IGNORANCE.
People's brains are deteriorating along with the capacity to respond to the real threat.... that we made seriously stupid agreements. I think global dementia has now become the norm.
Civilizations HAVE disappeared and never been rediscovered.
If we all die off and follow the path of the "others' fate", only we ourselves (who care about one's children) will be saddened. The world will be relieved.
IMO if a comet were to be headed my way today, I would feel relief. If it is going to end, then just be swift and sure with the death blow. The massive suffering seems to escalate daily and hurts terribly. It seems without reason or sense...
....And I hear the ones whom I thought would know better engage division between themselves over trivialities...
It is all seeming horribly "how has it come to this state" with no expectation of "wise" consensus and enlightened actions.
