Hi ~
I am just another relatively normal person living on this planet wondering how such a great notion has gone so terribly bad. When I read about the Magna Carta and the Declaration of Independence or the Writ of Habeas Corpus and most people today have no clue as to what these documents actually mean or what their original purpose was is a shock to the soul and an embarrassment to the people who died creating them. Few understand how bad it once was and how quickly it could become really bad again.
When I see this earth's animals dying off in mass amounts, seals, fish, birds, whales, antelope, on and on a portion of my life dies with them. When I see the forests and the seas polluted and grow sick and die my concept of mankind and progress is disrupted and I become ashamed to call myself a part of it.
When I see a government corrupt and bankrupt issue I.O.U.'s at negative interest and then buy up those very same I.O.U.'s with more I.O.U.'s printed out of thin air my incredulity turns into tears. When I see a man win the Nobel Peace Prize and slaughter innocent men, women, and children via remote controlled drones my heart wails. When I see other leaders exonerated from culpability I remember the old leaders who took responsibility.
Where O where have all the good men gone? Where O where have all the good women gone? Where O where has our spirit gone as a whole to allow such a wonderful and beautiful gift become so wasted and betrayed?
