Devoid of meaning at times…
Unity in things necessary,
Liberty in things doubtful,
Charity in everything

Perhaps this is what is missing. The common bond that held us together, unity due to hardships and struggle. We used to need each other, now we merely exist together.
Our strength used to be each other, relying on the community for guidance, the community was a family. Yes, there were many more hardships and life was much more of a struggle than today. Yet, today you are merely existing side by side. Of all the articles I have read, Cracked.com offers an amazing piece on insight. Called, What is The Monkeysphere? I honestly suggest it be read.
Liberty doesn’t have the ring it used to does it? For a while now, it seems that word has a connotation it never did before. A negative, a wistfulness it never had before this time. Things have changes, old ways swept under the rug, this is unfortunately life. These changes were bred from fear. The fear was used to control the community. Further separating the divide between us, hatred was replaced with new hatred. We fear our neighbors, not only in our immediate community, but the global community.
I honestly have no idea how to even bring about the slate being wiped clean. The dissolution of government to be honest is not something that would help. That seems to be the easy answer, unfortunately Occam’s Razor seems doubtful to apply to something as profound as human nature. We are intertwined with our own brains need to be either a follower or a leader.
The followers need the guidance, leaders a mission or cause.
We have a global problems, one solution will not work for us all. Nature and nurture has had it’s effect on us all, we are not a one size fits all species.
We are different, we should embrace it- not fear it. Perhaps I’m just being an idealist.
