…it seems I am only human. But sometimes.. I wish I weren’t. Wouldn’t life seem so much nicer.. ignorant? or selfish? or … alone? or as a robot (which is essentially lifeless)? Yup. I think I’ve gotta say so. But, then again, I also think I know better. Since it’s our humanity that makes us, for lack of a better [or truer] word, special — it seems silly to think such things. At least, silly when you consider the con-/sub-sequences of such things. ..Right? Yeahhhh… big silliness.
However, it also seems that we, as humans, are so easily swayed to make things difficult by instances of ignorance, selfishness, and a seeming desire for solitude. oy gevalt. what a relief to know that we are all only human. Now we’ve got to talk, listen, respond, THINK, act. Compromise. Both a hard and an easy task. Compromise. Oh the stubborn, oh the pushover, oh, oh, oh. What a world, no?
We want, we take, we have. OK.
We make, we share, we give. WHY NOT?
( ..and my eternal Buddhist is showing… )
So now, what happens when we’ve already taken what we wanted, made it something we want to share, (while still retaining it for ourselves), consciously expressing its gift and then constantly never giving it? …what happens then? Well, in my opinion, a cycle of selfishness is fervently held and the human, capable of acknowledging the concepts of fairness and compromise, is not even relegated to the lifeless robot of preconceived motions (and preprogrammed notions) (rhymes make me happy
). The easy lifestyle of a robotic, right? Sure, but now we have a paradox on our hands. Easy, to have your own opinions and be set in your own (selfish?) ways; difficult, because you are human and your fleshy brain synapses along your emotive spine and when the right cord is struck, it f*cking sucks. Now we’ve got something to fix, something to loosen our grasp of, (if only slightly), and a new deal to make. awesome. Who wants to be first to step on the level field before the raised podium? I’ll do it; I don’t mind. But I need to know everyone else will do the same. For G-d’s sake, you can’t have a compromise about a thingly-thing/idea/concept/practice/protocol/principle/whatever all by your lonesome. ..otherwise you’ve just stepped off the podium into a pile of bullshit. Double bummer. .. you’re also barefoot. sucksssss.
Let’s see what we can do. I hate feeling like I’m the one with a foot in the shit. Damn it !
