AOM Meditations: 010920

Relativity by MC Escher

~*~

The most foolish 
(and dangerous) 
belief you can have
Is believing you're too smart 
to ever be fooled

~AOM

“You can sway a thousand men 
by appealing to their prejudices quicker 
than you can convince one man by logic.”

~Robert A. Heinlein

~*~

“The news isn't there to tell you what happened. 
It's there to tell you 
what it wants you to hear 
or what it thinks you want to hear.”

~Joss Whedon

~*~

Taught from birth
By those taught from birth
That we are warring tribes upon the earth
That is a lie - an insidious deceit
A fear implanted within our brains
To divide and conquer through fear and hate
Keeping the profiteers in power
We need to embrace the Truth
Truth
That we are one tribe
One family
The family of humanity

~AOM

OK, you have provoked so many thoughts within me that I had an "ah ha," ah ha moment. It is like I knew and have known everything covered here for most of my adult life, yet at the same time it is like this is all brand new information.

Think about every "group" around you and think about how this applies to every single person in each of those groups. Now think about the driving force behind each of those groups....

Perhaps the most profound statement: "... A fear implanted within our brains To divide and conquer through fear and hate..."

You have stirred so many emotions and feelings... I think that is a good thing.... ;)
