We Are One

I am ashamed of belonging to this human specie.

As I watch thousands of people across the world gather to scream in protest at one man's wording, or rather the choice of quoting an ancient text, I shiver with disgust and shame.

Is there any way for me to detach, dissociate from humanity?
Is there any escape or any way to renounce my belonging to this formation of cells?
Is there any other specie out there that I may shift into?

How can one be proud of this specie's artistic or scientific achievements when we behave with such hypocrisy?
How can one even consider the goodness of mankind's heart when one man's words are enough of an excuse to create chaos, destruction and ruminate hatred?

Look at them, flock together in masses.
Look at their suffocation, their anger, their desire to blame each other for their own unhappiness.
Look at them drinking from the words of those they have put in power.
Look at them surrender their responsibilities in order to live in greater pain.

I am disgusted.
Profoundly disgusted by humanity.

Look at the this specie poison itself with its own lies.
Look at their knives planted into their own backs.
Look at the greed shining through each smile.
Look at the blame they place upon one another.

Mankind's greatest invention?
Destruction.

Without our ability to destroy our surroundings, our relationships, our environment, everything, we would be left to simply do nothing.
Destruction allows us to build a better tomorrow.

Destroy to recreate.
Destroy to build anew.
Move into disharmony to seek harmony.

Seeking makes the world go round. Money is just another tool in the whole.

An endless circle I wish I could vomit out of my system.
I wish I could vomit each piece of DNA that links me to the billions of humans across this planet.
I wish I could restructure my cells to belong to another physical specie, another system of existence, another perfect system of Life.

Or perhaps even better, I wish I would simply stop.

the state of mankind through the ages is pretty dissapointing, particularly the bit where we recycle the same old errors and bitterness over and over again. i guess our short lives leave most of us with this myopic perspective - but i don't think that is much of an excuse.

i can't help thinking two things:
1) Everything is tending to the homogenous.
2) We seem to be heading for some pre-enlightenment period.

viva-superstition :-(

as a species we're basically running amok, no natural predators - it's inevitable we destroy our environment - it's almost natural *shudder* - in some senses those of us that seek to preserve nature are unnatural - reason over survival perhaps (though i'm one of those people) - but destruction for ideology is profoundly wrong.

Oddly enough I happen to think the same.
If you start putting the pieces of the puzzle together (as any sane schizophrenic would) there seems to be an obvious shift from a tightly held status quo to quite an upheaval of the masses and shift in people's perception of power.
A bit like water just coming to the boiling point, I believe there is a major change just behind the corner. I seem to like to think that this major shift will take us through a very short but intensely cruel and violent time that will then proppel the human mind to the opposite energy, the more feminine, the more peaceful, receptive, and forgiving.
BUT... that is a choice.
The possibility for this shift is here, but whether we will, as a specie, embrace this possibility and learn to live in better harmony within ourselves and with our surroundings, is a choice. And as any choice, it has to be made with responsibility.
And making a consciously responsible choice implies that we have already made a shift towards a more conscious kind of life, and what you termed pre-enlightenment.

So, I'll sit back and see what will happen.
I know my choice.
What will humanity's choice be?
today i am expressing myself using the medium of youtube.

And thou have expresseth thyself pretty darn good...

That was magnificen beyond words!
Thank You for the link!!! :D
well, it was worth it after [info]evilbobrex's excellent link to the underwear and swimwear site.
Which link? You mean the Wicked Weasel one?
If you're talking about that one, I got it from a ... hum... girl friend *wide grin*

But he might have found it also at another time... or then you are talking about something completely different....
yeah, it was wicked weasel.

can't deny the quality of that site, or their goods of course.
I hate people right now, with their idiotic rules and systems etc. but I don't know if I hate humanity... Having met wonderful people like you, and Tanya (pagan/wiccan friend who battles her bipolar disorder everyday)... I know that there is hope within everyone to become or turn on that part of them. I think children are much more able to adapt and be open about helping the Earth than the adults who've become embittered and blocked up. So much wonderfully positive and beneficial energy given to the planet Earth from people like you. Education and or miseducation does wonders for those in the "civilized" world... You and Tanya are like goddesses (much like Gaya) trying to help the world. And without the goddesses, this world would indomitably go to waste. Who would educate the masses?
