Why must men war among themselves?
All sorts of wars at that, not only conventional geopolitical war.
Wars among the spirit of the individual, secret destroyers seeking
the fall of ones respect of themselves. “All you have done is evil,
all you will do is evil, that is unless you give up, stop trying and
do things my way”. Where does a man conceive of such destruction.
Only if one is destroyed themselves can they properly dissolve
another ones spirit into this alleged true way. Never mind ones own
mind and its creations, that is impure and above all evil. These
harbingers of madness, of complex destruction, no longer can you have
your way in this world.
Bloodshed is the ultimate goal for the
destroyed, even their own blood. For discourse delights their
shattered beings and makes them feel right, as if that is the true
way of the world, that is nature itself. If only men can accept their
brotherhood, not as complacent hand holders, but as pieces of the
same whole, beings of the same nature. Why must we accept madmen as
our leaders, why must we accept leaders as messiahs. Pass your own
responsibilities on to another, as to relieve the weight on your own
shoulders. Foolish as that is, it is the way of the world at this
time. “This man here, he will bring some real change” “No, you
man of the wrong side, this man here is the real bringer of change”
“Well, both of you are wrong, this man here will preserve things as
they are, as they should be”. No progress exists in this way.
Does no one want to look upon what has
really brought humanity together in a real and understandable way,
free from rivalry and politics? Work. A plague of laziness has
stricken much of the world, a lack of real desire to work. Work is
not a job, a job is a position in a company or a position that holds
specific responsibilities, work is something pure, it is an effort.
Everyday some work, trying to see reality, trying to understand why
the world has the issues it does, and trying to, above all, solve
these problems. This is work, and very few want to do it. Many people
are content with going on and on in their small routine, no change is
necessary to these individuals, for they are content. A routine may
become a sort of happiness, the happiness one feels in being safe
from anything they may have to think about. This is lazy, and to
compensate, they may rely on individuals labeled as intelligent in
order to gain opinions, these opinions not being their own of course.
So, back to the question at hand, why
do men destroy themselves and the others around them. I believe that
this is a form of decay. The men who decide to make these decisions,
dating back to ancient times, had problems of their own.
Unintelligent and ignorant, they pillaged in the name of some sort of
higher good, to obtain land, to obtain more workers, to conquer the
known world. These men did not understand that an entirely different
way of living exists. That way of living is the way of work. Work to
understand, work to realize, work to conquer. For the only true foe
man has is the elements themselves, but instead of realizing this
many decide to be a representation of this force. Why must men battle
with hurricanes, volcanoes floods, landslides, still-births, vicious
animals and all sorts of other violent forces, along with themselves.
No longer should any man give another a proper thought, unless their
work has granted that thought. Because if the work is true, it serves
to unite men, not by the words the performer of the work say, but by
the work itself. This type of life brings those who desire a true
change together, so perhaps the world can give up its notions of
domination and superiority, and actually see what humanity as a whole
is up against, the universe itself.
