Good Vs. Evil

We VoluntarilY live in a very Balkanized, categorized, subdivided, separated, grouped, sectioned, labeled, society. 


We VoluntarilY separate into:


White and Blac

Rich and Poor

Oppressors and Oppressed

Colonized and Colonizers

Strong and Weak

Truth and Your Truth


And we create a nonporous wall between the groups. You are one or the other. You cannot be both, even a small part of the other. And you cannot change sides. And being part of one group often forces you into other categorizations. 


Good and evil are, in modern times, applied with the same net effect - of being placed on one side of the division between two categorized groups. 


Good and evil are also, in modern times, given the same leeway on an individualized basis in that you can have “your” truth, you can also have your own definition of good and evil.


Einstein’s Theory of Relativity was never intended to be based on anything other than physical bodies. For sure not a person’s values, or how they define good from evil, or how they divide up the world into their own categories. 


If good and evil are relative, if white is white and black is black - or oppressed is oppressed and oppressors are oppressors, and so on - - then all white people are bad, potentially, and all weak people are good, and so on. 


Is there ever an instance where 100% of all people in any category are either good or evil? Yet we are witnessing this first hand [again] now. 


If you think Israel is evil and Hamas is good then you need to take a hard stop and think about his post. 


You may think that Israel is a Jewish State totally composed of Jews, all white, all oppressors, all colonizers, all strong people, all of them rich. You could not be further from the Truth. 20% are Arabs of whom over two thirds of them strongly support and stand behind the State. In fact, they refuse to move out of Israel. I could go on and on to dispel all the other incorrect sectionings of Israel, but will not. Feel free to do that yourself.


My point is simple, and two-fold.


The current environment in which we again VoluntarilY divide people is not only dangerous but also wrong.


Our current environment in which we define good and evil in relative terms is dangerous and wrong.


And if we do not VoluntarilY put a stop to this, our future is going to be highly diminished.


Wishes to all for a great day, each one a gift

Hugs too,

Return to Your Babyhood Remember the good old days when you were a baby? When you never gave up, regardless of how many times you failed. What happened to those good old days? When you were learning how to walk, you fell down each and every time. On average 17 times per hour. Hundreds if not thousands of times. And what did you do? You got back up. Each and every time. No questions asked. Never taking failure as your final answer. And then, you succeeded. You never doubted yourself. You never overthought things. You never got in your way. If you are now doing these things, preventing yourself from succeeding, getting in your own way, doubting yourself, overthinking things, stop. You can do it. You have done it before. When you had far less capabilities and knowledge and support. Wishes for another great day, each one a gift, David/

Failure or Revelation? You never fail at anything, and that is the truth. What you are doing is revealing to yourself an area of improvement. It is important to realize this, because if you are not failing at something, you are not challenging yourself adequately. And if you are not challenging yourself, how do you make yourself a better person tomorrow than you are today? So please, fail at something often. Be a better person each and every day, because, Each day is a gift, David/
