……..Is it just the particulars of what’s learned that determines whether we burn, even a trained monkey can reassess, it knows pure intellect can still neglect, merely being Homo sapiens don’t make you walk erect, everything isn’t always what we expect, can’t blame it on the neanderthals who appeared to be less violent, we hear they had less intellectual talents, an Afrocentric love ballad, but we were the first to enslave ourselves, cannibalize and put our skulls on shelves, is evolution just a learning process, maybe that’s why Africa’s war machine is more advanced, cause it purposely didn’t develop past a knife or spear, thereby saving the earth and atmosphere, saving the earth isn’t nonsense, but every human involved didn’t make the conference, war seems to be encoded into our entire struggle, is this life’s overall message or should we be wearing a muzzle.

Being human is nothing to be proud of. Makes a person wonder what it would have been like if something else had evolved in our place. Nice write
Thanks
I found seeing history through the lens of the four Hindu Yugas or Greek Ages (gold, silver, bronze, iron) to give a context as to what's happening now. What do you think?
I think we are in a constant state of rising and than falling, darkness and than light, realization as we then fall back into ignorance… a process that will continue unto the death of the ego, the wanting to become instead of being what we already are…. Entropy only affects things being constructed and built the catabolism and anabolism of becoming, being is never achieved, our physical reality calls for constant change but our souls seek to be steadfast, there lies the confusion
Thanks for your detailed reply. I once read that we only have the embryo of the soul. If that is the case, then is it just the same old ego pretending to be the soul and seeking its own steadfastness?!
More than likely
