Imagine if everyone was healed. The world might be a much brighter place. Even those of us that believe we aren't infected, are. By toxins in the air, by cold stares and empty words, by loveless lives filled with indifference.
The other day a friend showed his great concern for the state that the world was in. He found his mind being raped by the anxiety and hopeless concern that the few, true hero-hearted people, seem to be plagued by. He explained to me that his greatest worry lye in the possibility that our greed today, might cost our children their home, mother earth, tomorrow. However, he wasn't sure how to go about changing the course that mankind seemed to be taking. He claimed he would resort to force, an honorable option.
Still, what honor or positivity would come out of changing human nature? We humans, are destructive by human law. It is our duty and our right. It is our core, our strength and our vice. You, Reader, might believe that we are loving beings. That we all have inherited a "green thumb" so to speak, and we would actually rather see things grow and prosper. If you truly believe that, you must be so blindly naive. History stands against you, and history is the only reality there is. The truth is something that I have said before, you can't have one without the other. We are multi-faceted creatures, capable of acts that not even we can comprehend. We need destruction in order to appreciate progress and growth, but we thrive in both. He was true to his humanity when he thought of resorting to force, there is more honor in a warrior then in a lover.
There's a saying, it goes: Anger is like burning down a house to rid it of a rat.
I say, let it burn.
