Are we sensible enough to see the wonders around us?

Yes, we are… As long as we still have mountains, lakes, rivers, oceans, prairies, animals, chocolates, pineapples, mangoes, and a beautiful world; we still are sensible. It is really weird because somehow people don’t relate nature with themselves, when we are actually very much the same. We are nature, as nature is in us.

Why do we want to destroy who we are?

I suppose this does not only happen against nature. We also act constantly against ourselves without being aware of it.

The path of self-distruction is not to hate, but to act upon your hatred. For example, you may hate a movie, but it will stop there. You won’t destroy a cinema because they showed a movie that does not follow your belief system.

It is the same thing inside of our minds…

We may even hate parts of us, but hate and love have the same root: You care about something enough to hate it or love it. So, how to find a balance in so many “opposites”?

01We tend to compare things in the same sphere of consciousness, when things are not like that. For example, love can be compared to hate as an opposite if you see love as a feeling. However, if you understand love as a state of being, then it may be harder to compare it with being hateful.

02 Our definitions represent the image we have created of those concepts. Therefore, a comparison is just valid using your own internal processed ideas about what is being compared. Even though, we use dictionaries, those lack the deepness of a human being discovering the reality beyond our communication systems.

It is very easy to say: Hate is the opposite of love, but is that the truth? In what extent of awareness it may be, and when do they begin to unite each other?

This all happens because we are living in a society full of “I AM WHO MY MEMORIES TELL ME I AM”.

That’s ok if that’s what you believe is enough if you don’t want to ask more questions, and you don’t want unveil the truth behind our confusion. Those memories can help us to elaborate complex thought systems that break our traditional systems of communication or those memories can entrap us in as sheep in a herd going no where.

It is strange, but instead of using thought system to understand communication. We use our thought system to break and fragment communication. The tool that should help us unite us through dialog becomes a method of division. Should we investigate this further?

We use a dictionary, but those terms are so vague that at the end our interpretation of reality varies in such a way that peace is no where to be found.

For example: If conclude that egoism is good, and famine is good if it is not yours. You might believe that imprisonment of the body is not good, but because you are free and although others may be trapped, you really do not care.

How come you do not act when seeing others in a state where you believe is not good? How can you believe that something is good in one perspective, but not in another one? What is the problem with words that they do not seem to reach a real consensus?

Do you know what the term good mean? Yes, you might be tempted to define through the use of a dictionary, but… Is good, a very relative term, an easy term to define?

To become aware of this fact changes the way you see the world because our perception is biased by our conditioning.

A child sometimes can see beyond because although they are not aware of the complexities of thought and language, they realize what we have lost… A sense of wonder that brings us back to the present moment that can be translated into a sense of fullness and profound goodness, one that is beyond any dictionary definition.

For example, those who don’t believe in being good to others surely haven’t found the truth beyond their own thoughts and beliefs. These people might not understand what does the concept to be good really mean. They still must ask more questions to find the fulfillment of a joyous of life.

It is a serious matter, don’t take it lightly, it is unfair to continue this way. What will our future generations remember us for? Our acts of self-destruction? Because when we contaminate, it is not killing just us, but everything that surrounds us.

Take as an example smoking, those who die first may not be the smoker, but the little daughter that spends her time with her dad who smokes.

Can you see the lack of awareness due to their own concepts and lack of wonder? Please, let her live… Let us live. Let us have a wonder future before it is too late for us to correct what blind adults have done.
