A majority of countries today are struggling with the horrors of their own creations. Since the beginning of the world we have learned to congregate into groups of distinction. Humans, animals, insects and things are often classified based on their looks, compositions, habitats or habits. It has been our fundamental need to segregate, divide, classify, categorize and label through differences and disparities.
We have supposedly evolved in our
bodies and our brains but our minds continue to inhabit this very fundamental
human need. On the contrary our minds have evolved its capacity of registering
the infinitesimal differences to manifest into a colossal suffering. Now we
have learned to stress ourselves with imagined distinctions to haunt us so much
that we have lost the capacity of all other senses. Such is our overpowering
need to differentiate that we cannot see, hear, touch, smell, taste or feel the
similarities of our fellow human beings. Our desire to rule and to dominate is
so great that we have fashioned differences to create fake identities through colors and nations and ethnicity and professions and in the process we are
now so fragmented that we have lost one of the most distinguishing trait of
being a human, the capacity to feel empathy and compassion.
Defining and redefining our identity
is hence a political tool to obtain and retain power, the sooner we
differentiate these differentiation the faster we evolve ourselves out of
permanent self-destruction. If not, the only hope that we will be able to see
similarities once again among fellow humans on this earth is perhaps if we
were to be attacked by a common enemy such as Aliens from a distant cosmos. If these Aliens are more evolved than us humans that will be the final blow toward
permanent destruction of all our collective identities - the relish of most power brokers - the so-called doom’s day. Amen.
