It sure feels like I’m coming apart. I look at the impending crisis of ‘now’ and see that which I dare not see. It crushes my soul to witness starving children, the homeless and moneyless, those without work, a world in economic and monetary collapse, cultural malfunction, riot police, war, and political anger and greed.
I have to talk with those I know, respect, and love, watching them struggle with what their own eyes see, as they attempt to hold themselves together, positively focused on their accustomed dream of life.
I know that life as we have known it is well into the last chapter of humanity’s existence. I see answers and solutions to what ails us, but there is no universal comprehension, coordination, integration, or control of feeling’s temperament, which is needed to unify behavior in leadership and management.
Oddly, control appears to be viewed as some kind of positive tyranny. This would ideally be where power knows the task of the unification of goodwill and cooperation. It instead seeks unification in force, dominance, hate and rejection. I believe rejection to be an organic impulse, a force in animal DNA, driven by a primitive neural code.
The human is an important link in guiding evolution’s directive into universal, rational responses. What we are seeing instead is emotional reactivity to current threats of seizing power over the many, according to the neural construct of the animal kingdom.
Domination by force is an embedded neural-survival-command. Instead of adhering to a path of knowledge through experience and integrating it, applying it in beneficial behavior and response, it appears that what has been experienced through the ages is being played out, once again, in our current actions . . . the past prevails.
It’s a blocking off of the spiritual—a conscious stepping forward in the direction of evolution’s provision of what is needed for human life to survive.
In general, this is beyond the perception of humanity’s awareness. This is because there exists a pace of growth and awareness in the path of life, along with experience of pain and struggle. It is also the character of all DNA variants.
This is first seen in a select few, and from there it takes time to establish in the DNA of a species. It needs time and repetition, trial and error, but this is in context of that which is established biologically from the animal impulses of the past.
The time of need for change is competing with the embedded time of the inherent past. The new cannot keep up or catch up with the biological past. One would think this to be a hopeless transition.
This is where hope dies for me. The process of transition and transformation is murderous in a paradigm of competition between life and death, of one in the narrow struggle with the other, filled with pain, suffering, and violence in impartial indifference. There is no demonstration of caring about human life.
It is like a flood, earthquake, hurricane, volcanic eruption or fire.
We are all passengers on Spaceship Earth, tossed about in the wind and rain of the storms of living life.
What survives can’t be seen until The Sea of Life is calm again.
