You know, we are basically a society of moaners. Nothing is ever good enough. We are responsible for ourselves and our own lives even though we do
have to live within confines of rules set out by Government. Im no lover of Government or politics as I just see them as a group of people equal to me
that have the ability to waffle and earn a larger salary. They all play chess with peoples lives and we are either kept on the board or get knocked
off it.
My thinking has become totally distant and philosophical and I am middle aged so Im not unaware of the worlds troubles but really when I wake up in
the morning I look outside and Im greeted by the dawn of another day in MY life. I can sit and moan at Parliament discussions on the TV or feel
passionate about debates on Newsnight or even feel enraged by headlines on google, but the truth is, why worry?
Each day I have to cook and clean and look after MY family but I also devote a lot of voluntary time to help other people and religiously so and know
that I do not ignore the world at large. I do however ignore the world arguments because the truth is there is NO answer to any of it. I could side
with most points of view because I can understand each point of view, but really it does not impact me or have any direct effect on me in any way at
all.
It seems to me to evolve in society you have to ignore a large part of the 'propaganda' in life. We get drawn into issue after issue sometimes with
enormous passion but as individuals we cannot change things but for some reason it feels good to moan about things to get them off our chest. Well,
if it feels good, then do it and why not? But overall really what difference does it make unless there is a world revolution to overthrow every rule
and regulation or group of authority.
If every government was upturned and if we were no longer ruled and there was nothing left to moan about we would be bored! For some reason the
human brain enjoys getting a good input of annoyance to keep it ticking but life can be as smooth or as complicated as an individual wants it to be.
If we were left to rule ourselves it would not be long before someone decides to be a leader and make others followers.
Quite honestly I sometimes believe that if any 'religious' advice should be taken it could come from Jesus's famous line ' when in rome do as the
romans do'. I think that was his way of saying, shut up and keep your head down because 'its the way it is'.
Having said that - Im not really a bible goer or a religious preacher - I just think I have evolved as a realist watching society play out daily on a
world stage - maybe it sounds uncaring or even unthoughtful but the truth is it doesn't matter what anyone thinks or what anyone does if they are not
in the driving seat of all that goes on - we are all controlled - but you dont have to let your mind be controlled by it all - even if you have to
follow the dictates of society rules.
Call me strange, but I learned to step off the merry go round of the world wheel by training myself to see things for what they really were and the
truth is we put these people in governments in power by voting for them.
So dont vote. I never do and I never have so I have the right to ignore what I dont believe in. Why dont you try it?
As for 'god help us all' - why should the human race be helped? they create their own problems - We have done more harm to this planet then any
animal in the world and we kill them and eat them. We are greedy and warmongering as a species - the human race is basically not nice because even the
very nice people in society will never go through a lifetime without forming a negative viewpoint however small or insignificant it is.
We cant be pleased its as simple as that.
