Are We Living a Lie?

It seems that there has be very little evolution in the human being to date. War continues to sweep across country after country and no one seems to think that it should be stopped. There should be some elaborate grand plan for stopping it. No refereeing. Certainly there must be some hidden agenda that belies this resisitance to end human suffering.

I am no chess player, but truth should be an objective. That truth being that no one stands to gain anything by the demise of others. Perhaps this is naive but I believe that it is impossible to harm others without also harming yourself.

I don't think history holds any solutions or insights into the cause and continuation of bloodshed, but I think that there must be some wise people who could help mitigate this involution of mankind. Finding people with the right thinking is difficult and communicating these ideas is even more daunting.

Unfortunately, the people in charge of our country don't have the greater good in mind. They live a lie and perpetrate a kind of hopelessness that results in pessimism and wrong thinking.

Today's values are no values, which may have a value. After we emerge from our delusions we can begin to face each other openly and without derision. But how much suffering does the human race have to undergo before real life begins?

No one has the right to take the life of another under any circumstances and participating does not avenge the loss of life of another. Belief that divine justice exists is a way of coping but isn't swift enough. So we imprison the guilty in a world where no one wants to live. That world is here.

We are all responsible for the greed and lack of joy that exists today, but we could try to live our own truth...this is also a suffering.
