birds fly, fish breathe under water
humans think, bonobos make peace
birds build nests, fish live in communities
humans change, bonobos use tools
birds raise birds, fish eat fish
humans love, bonobos love too
ahh… as I lay here on my belly. I think about the problem of evil. St. Augustine comes to my mind, Martin Luther King Jr. comes to my mind. Does evil exist because of the absence of good? Does evil exist because it has to for good? Can evil be systematically eradicated? If we met everyone’s needs twice fold would it still not be enough? I don’t understand the world we live in, being the modern people, I expected us all to understand history and not repeat the mistakes.
There are three great evils I consider.
1. Murder
2. Slavery
3. Natural evil
No hierarchy because I do not want anymore hierarchy in my life. Yet if I desire freedom and to gain it, I must murder my master, or pray for their downfall, does that make me evil? I just want to be free…
Why did Haiti have to pay France back for so long, when they too understand tyranny.
Why did the Native Americans have to suffer, when Americans too understand suffering.
I don’t understand history sometimes, have I grown to know to much? No I’ve grown to care to much…
I would like to have one cup of world peace please.
No! Not your soccer! Or your Olympics!
My world peace sees free travel, free trade, free access to knowledge for all countries.
Free, Free, Free… Is it to much to ask for?
Founding fathers that wanted freedom maybe Britain thought that was too much to ask for? Cause what do we know, we aren’t kings and queens.
Tribes continue to fight each other, is it resources? Is it power? Is it ego or status? I don’t understand, have we not all had someone take care of us to get to this point?
You must remember! Someone wiped your butt! Someone fed you! Someone kept you from danger! Someone sheltered you! How could you forget? How could you not be grateful to the world we are in?
How could you become evil? It doesn’t make sense. I do not know why evil exists… but I do know we can never become it.
To do what is right! Due to being right! To do what is right! Due to being right!
We understand earthquakes and hurricanes happen, but our rebuild must be just as ground shaking! Our rebuild must be just as powerful! We understand that pain exists, but we must relieve suffering.
Here is the access code to life:
(1+2)∞π
…but what do I know, other than I do not know… ahh.. access denied. I should have put facial recognition. Can you see the pain in my face? Can you see the love in my face? Please understand I only want the best for us, all of us. Even those who are evil too, because someone loved them, and they too love something.
whatever… sigh.. where was I…
