We don’t think alike. That used to be okay. It’s not anymore. Can you tell me why? Can you explain without prefacing with a pre attack and start everything with words like fool, blind bastard, or just plain dumb ass? If you believe me to be stupid and flat out wrong does that mean you are equally stupid and flat out wrong? In this Universe balanced by polarity, opposites are equal so where does that leave your opening argument? Why are you arguing in the first place? Is it that important to feel ‘right’? What are you trying to accomplish by acting that way? Are you afraid? Are you afraid of me?
There used to be a middle ground where it seemed the actual truth used to live but now there is another place – a place of fear, retribution and hate. It’s almost as though we have created a new dimension, a dimension where value, virtue, ethics and above all patience and tolerance no longer exist. A realm where ego, denial and the need to obliterate another human being are the standards for living... or would that be dying? A place that kills ingenuity, freethought and uniqueness. A place where everyone expects less and lives in lack stamped with the label “equitable.” A place where some nebulous grand puppeteer pulls the strings attached to everyone in a new utopia ordering them to annihilate anyone or anything not of the ‘norm’ or would that be the ‘same’ by the new standards? Have you shifted your mindset to a new brand of Crowleyism, “What is good is evil and want is evil is good?” Is your new world like Babylon? Is that where you live now? In an artificial bubble which requires your eyes to be closed because it is no longer correct to see reality and to deal with life? A place where you cut yourself off cannot connect with another human being who does not think exactly as you do? A place where you cannot converse with another human being of unlike mind? Discourse is not allowed? People are cancelled and erased like so many cartoon characters on a drawing board?
I wonder what you see now. I wonder what your mind tells you is the truth. Have you lost your capacity to question what you believe to be true or are you too busy trying to convince others of the lies you hold as your personal gospel. Even for a minute – even for a brief ‘what if’? Can you ask yourself, “What if my logic surrounding this matter is wrong?” “Have I reviewed the facts but have somehow twisted then to assuage my fears? To satisfy my ego needs?” “Have I let fear become my master?” “Am I giving the devil his due?”
Yes, I wonder what you see.
I wonder where you went.
I wonder who you are.
Because you are no longer an individual.
