If i thought it would Help:
i would open a Hell Mouth in every city in the world.
i would Raise Hell and Bring Down Heaven.
i would sever connections, and hide away.
i would bury myself up to my neck, under an Ash Tree, for Seven days and Nytes.
i would rip open every Third Eye i see.
i would Freeze the Hudson river around my body.
i would kill you all, and make you start over.
i would drag you to the infinte corners of the multiverse.
i would burn myself at a Stake, in the centre of the Galaxy, for all to see.
i'd do all of that, and more, when i thought of it, if i thought it would help. And i have Hope, beyond measure that, one day, within yourselves, you wiill all find what you need to make your tyme here Living, and not simply Being Alive. i have Hope for that , and many things besides. But realistically? What do i think about trying to get you to learn by example? By Show and Tell, like i've been doing? i think that it's all i know how to do. Show AND Tell.
But well, Honestly? i'd give it all up, and shut up forever.

Date: 2002-03-06 12:18 pm (UTC)There is also the possibility of ego-saturation. With all the focus on humanity's overall lack of karmic completion, you stand in danger of becoming NOT "our christ" (or even your own "christ") but society's doomsayer. Perhaps this is your intent, however do take note of the hypocracy inherit in such a position. While decrying the general malaise, apathy and illness supposedly rampant in our visible culture, you tend to miss and denigrate the advances made as well as the enlightened masses who make them. Thus, your vision becomes your blinders which puts you in the little box you are describing for others.
Be careful where you point that thing... you'll end up aiming it at yourself and never know it.

I do believe I have a right to my opinion. I did not say you don't know what you are doing, I said that it APPEARS you are heading into a corner-painting position. I also posited it as a POSSIBILITY. You are certainly expected to either consider my comments as such or correct my inaccurate thinking.
I do not disagree that there is much in the world to interpret as DOOM. I do not disagree that humanity occasionally stands as ignorant and foolish. I do, however, also see the other side THAT TRULY EXISTS. You want to ignore all the goodness in the world? Hooray for you. You want to believe the "evil" outweighs the "virtuous"? Have fun. DON'T suppose that your ideas are original or enlightening to EVERYONE.
I'm tired of your arrogance. How's that for blunt opinionation?
Re: Presume?
Date: 2002-03-08 11:58 am (UTC)and i don't think that Anything outweighs ANYTHING. i think that people, for the majority, are stuck in one frame of reference, and aren't shifting.
if you think i'm ignoring the goodness, you don't know me that well at All. i see it, and revel in it every day. And it makes me want to fix what is see as "wrong" all the more. i have no idea if you understand my position, at all. i'm hoping that i understand yours.
i appologise for Snapping earlier, but that sounded as a presumtion, to me, and there was nothing, in it, that spoke to the contrary. Good Days. Dream Well
