Insanity

Insanity

A Poem by luciddreamer

I don't understand the powers of the Universe, yet I know it is.  You don't understand the power of your God, yet you know he is.  It is one of the same, as most religions are one in the same, we all,  no matter who we are question our purpose.  Why is that such a hard pill to swallow?  For me it brought comfort, in my questioning of myself.  Maybe that is the difference, I quit questioning God and started questioning myself.  My existance, my purpose.  The more clearer my vision seems to get, the more insanity I see.  Sometimes I swear I see robots standing in front of me doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results and truly not understanding why its not working out for them.  I have been this robot one to many times.  My friend Bubo wrote an excellent and unfortunately correct view of many of the things we buy at Christmas and how that brings about so much pain to this worlds young, you know the ones we all fool ourselves into thinking we care about,  but people doesn't want to hear.  They wonder why I would want to add to their already stressful lives by suggesting this read.  Free will is gone with the wind. We walk around with so much indifference in our hearts, I wonder how we will ever get back to the only truth, love.   We now are controlled by so many different technologies,  I wonder will we ever come back to sanity.  But then again, the more I learn about history, the more I wonder, were we ever sane to begin with.

I agree, the world has become a crazy place and we are mostly controlled in the choices that are available to us. It wasn't always this way, there are sane cultures, mostly gone today, but some still struggle to exist. This culture we live in has been growing for so long it feels like it is the only way. The good (or bad) news is that it is a destructive culture and cannot continue this way indefinitely. I enjoyed this writing.

You are absolutely right, but the sanity is within the insanity. We live our lives to the best way we can, but if everything was perfect, and correct, and there was no evil in this world...would that be sane? It sounds lovely, it sounds great but would that be free will? or would that be the robots of humans....Great write, and read. Really made me think.

With Love,

I must agree with this author, as painful as it may be to my ego.......

Maybe that is the difference, I quit questioning God and started questioning myself.

Very right.........God gave us choices and the rest he left up to us......how we choose to live is down to us.........what a strong emotional piece.........we are sane, many many of us, who try to do small things to make the world a better place, and the beauty can be seen in the good.....I thank you dearly for the mention, it is only through hope and faith we can change people who walk around with their eyes closed.
