The Point of Humanity

Lately and very early in the mornings when the sun is just starting to put a glow in the nights sky, a very friendly robin comes around to say good morning and eat some worms. He gets very close and is very curious about us humans. He happened to be on a ledge outside the kitchen window while I was getting coffee. I started thinking about the birds point of view, and how it must be most strange to see. Without the ability to do so yourself it must be most peculiar. Starting with the thumbs to be able to hold and manipulate objects. We do things like drinking water in a cup without a second thought, when It can be life and death trying to drink water for animals. My mind started to drift while imagining the bird being jealous I had my own bird bath to carry around.

I started thinking about how we have so many other wonderful tools to aid us on our path. A quick vast brain usually easy to traverse, a body ready to respond in unimaginable ways, abilities in some that go beyond the physical plane. I saw EVERY potential we have in store, and then I saw how we use it. Corporations, stock market, corrupted governments, and MUCH more worse things. I almost cried at the waste of talent we have today. The things we could do in the right focus would be beyond belief, and instead we fumble for greed and power and let many suffer in its wake.

Every region/country has a religion or system for keeping the right focus, so this isn't something we forgot. People know what they are doing and they still choose the wrong path. Is greed so strong we have no choice? Then I realized its what is available. The ones in greed encouraging others into it, increasing both into wealth, and they tell two friends, and they tell two friends, and so on. Which isn't "most of us", and more or less comes down to 1%. The top 1% to be exact.

I know some countries and areas are beyond this (not many but they do exist). I also guess I see it most in America, but now infesting other countries into their methods for this control and power. They throw a bunch of sparkles and flashy lights in front of you, meanwhile someone else has their hand down your back pocket leaving you just enough to think you need "just a little more". Monopoly money at that, but the discussion of the gold standard isn't for now even though it applies.

Im ranting now, so I should stop. Its hard for me though with what I see. Its hard to stop hurting the way I do because of those sights. So I will return to my slow crawl up this tunnel of light. Like many of you on this site, we will continue to fix cracks and imbalances within this structure. The focus continues evermore.

That's a nice bit of writing there Sammy, initially daunting because of the size and what other posts can be about, but yours isn't. It's nicely spaced, paced and is there another word that rhymes which will explain thoughtful? Encased (?)

Well the Dalai Lama has stated that enemies are most useful as who else might teach us compassion and wouldn't it be funny if the whole world was so so the few might learn this?

Many might tell you why it is so and many may even have solutions which may or may not work but it is what it is and each person who wakes up to the mess and decides to do whatever they think is best is possibly what it is all for... or it's just madness without end as a sieve, with a purpose or not, again, that people wake up from.

The point of humanity is to evolve to be the best being in the universe. Live in harmony with other things around us.
