Blind Society

“A blind man knows he cannot see, and is glad to be led, though it be by a dog; but he that is blind in his understanding, which is the worst blindness of all, believes he sees as the best, and scorns a guide” - Samuel Butler

A society full of greed that seeks after power and gain. Is it a perception that just a few have of our human race today, or is it real and we are just so blinded we cannot not actually see the greed exposed?

We are quick to point at the failures of others, to judge, and to hang... yet our own follies are swiftly justified through our ability to analyze and connect with our emotion. Emotion is like glue... whether it be positive or negative... it is what connects and anchors us to a belief in our subconscious mind. A belief in a relationship, in a standard, in a way of life. And then subconsciously this belief dictates our actions to support this belief and we don't even recognize it in our own day to day action, yet are quick to cast the stone at another.

How can one guide another when he too is blind. Truth is the simplest form of light in which when received knowledge and understanding are bestowed upon us in which we can not describe to another, yet merely converse with one who too has received the strength through understanding. Receiving is only given through one source... yet to be able to lay down our pride and be sufficiently humbled to learn is the most difficult task that lies in our path. We have been given stumbling blocks that we may look, and lest we see with our eyes and hear with our ears... we will continue blind and deaf constantly tripping over stumbling blocks.

The mind is an amazing tool, yet it is no different than a self-programming computer. Over time it will be so cluttered with false viral commands, it is almost impossible to clear the memory and begin from scratch rebuilding the correct components.

The B Side To The Truth is the majority of people in society are living life merely in relation to their experience's in life. Yet history goes thousands of years back and time and time again the human race repeats the pride cycle which always has lead to the destruction of their people. To know truth it must be inquired of... and to inquire means one must act on faith in which they believe they can receive light with in their vessel.
