i don't understand, how one cannot connect THEIR struggle, to OTHER'S struggles...
when my sister suffers in another place, i should feel her.
when she is raped, and her child killed in front of her... i feel her pain.
when one, whom is like me, faces an atrocity that could easily have been me... i should be able to empathize with them... feel it as if it is me.
it COULD be me...
when one who is DIFFERENT from me... minutely, or significantly... and they are suffering... un-rightfully... they are being harmed, and it is at the hands, the POWER, or privilege of another, who is BENEFITING from that harm...
i should be feeling that... it is wrong...
if i were to see another being slaughtered in front of my face, being killed... being raped, violated, hurt... in pain... to see another's tears...
i SHOULD feel that...
it could just as easily be me...
NON-violence is the answer... in action...
in spirit, in heart, and intention...
i stand with my fellow beings, in solidarity...
almost always...
if they are struggling, from the actions of others, who are harming and/or exploiting them, for these other's benefit.. for more power, or money... or material wealth...
i stand and non-violently FIGHT... with moral courage... for the rights, and justice... of those who cannot, or are not given the space to live righteously, or simply... to be humans, to raise their families, to live sustainably...
that is TRUE solidarity.
that is TRUE activism...
grounded, honest, right, TOGETHER.
we are all equal from the judgement of nature...
ALL equal.
ONE LOVE i say... and i mean it.

how do i infiltrate the system...
how can i get in... to the minds of the people...
like they do...
those schemers, branders, marketers... government officials, spokespersons...
preachers... of absolute truths...
all are pushing truths onto people... that are not true.
all is relative... everchanging, unique...
we are diverse in our one-ness.
our species of humans, the variations within us, amongst us...
all unique and special... sacred works of perfection... for real.
the earth, its range of species... all interspersed, perfectly completing each other in so many ways...
within cycles, and seasons...
all working, flowing, continuing...
living, and dying together,
in true harmony.
i want to preach the truth... but the real truths...
that there is no ONE truth...
and we need to start paying attentions... letting our attention go...
to the truths...
start being real...
practicing...
TRUE principles.
its is hard being REAL in this society...
but i really want to try it full -time... you know?
i want my energy to go into taking care, of myself, and others...
i want my consciousness to be in caring for the system...
the interplanetary, inter-specied... TRUE cycled system.
cycles of life and death.
cycles of all species and beings throughout all possible histories...
everchanging in balance.
How do i infiltrate the system that doesn't see or support this belief system?
how do i get to the people... the kids, the adults... the hearts of the human beings who truly are exploiting the other beings.... the other creatures we are to be sharing and existing with...
creatures being plants, animals, living, moving, creatures...
part of the everchanging tapestry of life...
How do i infiltrate the system... to get this way of thinking into their minds...
i have to get out there in a stronger way... i know.
But how?
