There are often many things in the universe that make life in this small corner of the milky way, that people keep thinking that there is nothing out there. You look at the ancients here on earth, who were able to build long lasting testaments to their culture, yet we are lucky to keep things standing for a hundred years.
I have often wondered, how does the universe in all its own glory, create something as so narrow minded as modern man. We live in our lives, our own little dimensions for one part of the day, then there is the other little universe when they interact with others. These multiple universes that we create for ourselves are often at odds with the universe that we actually see in front of us. Just think, we are walking down the street, and we see a homeless person, who is unkempt, ostracised by those who have no understanding for the universe that they see. We walk past, often oblivious to the things around us, and then continue down the path that we have chosen to walk that day. Others, who live in the open universe, will often see that person and when able or not a charlatan, will help eachother, often improving the lives of both people that day.
Our universe, like the universe that we see around us, should be a constant one of life and death, rebirth, growth, decay and a constant environment of change. A majority, sadly live in a place that is more a description of a form of hell, rather than a paradise of personal growth and advancement up a rung of a ladder to true humanity.
What is true humanity? It is an understanding of one simple thing, that we are all a part of a whole, much bigger and more beautiful than us. I am not saying a deity here, I am saying that, this beautiful thing that we live in, that place where will find that love of life, perfecting ourselves to our greater being. There is no greater truth in learning that the true purpose of life is to live life. To love life. To move with life in a continuing advancement towards understanding. There is no need to understand with the levels of Stephen Hawking, Amadeus, Ramchandra and other great mathematicians, or artists, writers to understand. They all understand the mysteries of the universe in different languages, some math, writing, art, music or speech. But to understand the true meaning of the universe, is to do what these people have done, and that is to improve yourself. Whether it just be for your own good, or the good of others, growth will give you more understanding and thus more insight into your own daily living.
For years, I have tried to hide my understandings, the how I lives, the things I do from the outside world, just through a simple fear that I wasn't good enough to learn or to grow. I was marginalized, bullied and more often than not ignored. I had my voice taken away by being told to keep quiet, don't question, don't do anything that will rock the status quo. These things are what has institutionalized thought and academia for so long. By keeping just enough education into those to make intelligent human beings, but hiding a higher percentage of that knowledge away so we don't fully understand our universe.
For years, institutions have given us just enough feed to keep us consuming. Given just enough food to work for the honour of this ability to consume. We are kept as blind to the horizons beyond our blinded sight, as a cow in a feedlot pen is to fields where the green grass comes from. We both have the caging to stay inside a set of artificial lights, away from the nourishment that feeds us.
Nourishment, in this day and age is extensive. So many people have access to the internet, yet we still believe the lies, the hate, the fear that is spread on a daily basis by a select few in the news. Who is killing who, what celebrity X ate for dinner to make her skinnier, what pill will make your penis larger, what clothes not to wear in the time between Easter and May Day. What the news doesn't tell us, is that the vast majority of the world, wants basic things: Love, nourishment, a wage above the poverty line, to go to bed and not have to fear a bombing strike or to know that you can feed your family, and instead of spending 70hrs a week at work, you get to spend time with those you love, your friends and your family. Humans need to understand that this universe is vast, growing, and in a state of such beauty that we need to explore more of it. What if, all the countries and religions of the world said look, let's spread out into the solar system! How about we use all the budgets for war, for weapons and for hate, and turn it into a tool for growth of understanding? What global catastrophe is it going to take to stop this talk of tribes, religions, groups, collectives, and realize that the only collective that is important, is each and every single entity, 2 legged or 100 legged that lives on this beautiful earth? I often say, I want to go to Mars with the robots, because where they are, there are no suicide bombings, no slaughters, massacres, murders, rapes, religious wars, resource wars or fake wars to keep the population confused. There is just this beautiful silence, and somewhere waiting to be explored.
This is just a collection of random thoughts. I am think of doing a youtube channel. Thinking of doing a few things to get me on the road to where I am needed. I just want to say that I love each and every one of you in the world. You all have made it this far so far, and with cohesion of humanity, we can make it further. If you are reading this, please, love another person in your life, add a new friend, live life a little more free and open. Strip off the constraints that are used to bind you, and do what it is you want to do. I will love you for it, and you know you will always have my backing as long as you are not hurting another.
Peace to you all my friends.
