As darkness is just perceptive errors or failures,
Light reveals more.

Investigation yields more
Than merely just believing;
You can believe in everything,
Without believing in anything.
You can believe in everything,
Without believing in 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨.
You can believe in everything,
Without it meaning anything.

You can believe anything,
Even while it goes against all that is logical & virtuous.

Believing in everything without properly investigating
Is meaningless.
Believing in anything that after investigation contradicts
Logic & Virtue, facts & opinion - both the objective & subjective,
Is meaningless.

Don't read into things
Which really aren't there to begin with,
Because there is so much
Of which you all are ignorant.
So don't be arrogant;
Be a teacher,
Parent.

We are human—
built on hope,
drawn to dreams
we may never reach.

Still, we want.
Still, we wait.

Love—
we crave it like breath,
though it breaks us,
burns us,
leaves us aching.

Yet we return,
bare and believing,
longing for arms
that won't let go.

Why?

Because we are human—
and love
is the wound
we keep calling home

Not against any good philosophy -
But religion is disgusting.

What's it yous worship anyway?
Superstition - nonsense.

Thinly veiled is your philosophy;
Dogma about me, me, me, me!

Proudly wearin' your mark of beasts.

This the symbol, crucifix;
Nailed up "our" "prophet," we did!

This is the ritual, wine & bread it is;
Cannibal feast of "blood & body."

This the symbolism, con𝘧𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯;
Reductionism from philosophies stolen.

This the comedy, tragedy;
Bastardizations from destruction & butcheries.

Like orphan children what livin' off charity;
What's me mother's name? Who's my daddy?

Eschewing everything
Cause you refuse to see, nor to hear.

You worship only yourselves;
This that your balderdash?
Nay. You are your own blasphemies!

There's your "divine" "comedy."

Joke's on you lot
For not just havin' "forgot,"
But for stealin'
And sayin' yous didn't.

Crimes enough
To fill sheets yous call scripture.

No such miracles
For those believers.
Those who worship, only worship nothing -
They will be outside of everything,
"Existing" as nothing.

Commoners' indignant?
Youth disinherited?
Ha. Nay.

Intellectuals disrespected.
Visionaries neglected.
Aye.

Yous who don't learn,
Refusin' to see eye-to-eye.
You slight genius, Truth.
Ay;

Afraid to even say hi -
Much less engage in honest, forthright conversation.
Rely on your superstitious,
Your hope is to pray
For ignorance like arrogance be your prey.

Lambs what be foul predators
Fat on the blood of their own ewes.
Singin',

"We know not what we do!
We know not what we do!"

Yet, you do so willfully.

Soon-to-be-nothings;
Absence, as nothingness, will be your eternity.

For the unworthy are rejected, universally.

There is no darkness.
I mean this symbolically,
But also quite literally.

There is light
Constantly all around you,
Flowing through you.

Spectrums you can see,
Spectrums you don't.
But are you able to?

Walk of the wanton & the reckless,
Dark hallways down those overgrown aisles.
On either end of the political spectrum,
Where festers extremism.

Isles our youth sail to
Before dry the oceans.
Ideas which give way to ideologies
Which therein invite communities
People become entrenched and/or trapped in.

Ravines they claim valleys,
Molehills they pronounce mountains.
Conspiracy & alternate history,
Anti-democratic & superstitious beliefs.
Issues which have little to no attachment to reality,
Arguments repeated which perpetuate only apathy - discord.

Victims of a Maze of & of not
Of their own invention.
Minotaurs, as "monsters,"
Of & of not of their own creation.
These lost to the "Trails."

Fueled by ignorance,
But consumed by arrogance;
Burned in apathy -
Short-lived confusion.

Stay compassionate,
Remain patient.

Consider this situation:

Person #1 resides on the light side (of good).
Person #2 temporarily abides on the dark side (of evil).

Person #2 seeks to exploit Person #1’s kindness for selfish ends, to commit evil. Person #1 must discern these intentions. Do not be naive: mindless good may enable Person #2 to fulfill their planned evil…

Then Person #1 must exert effort (within their means) to help Person #2 realize:
a) Their temporary existence on the dark side.
b) The necessity to grow brighter and kinder by returning to the side of good.

P.S. (1) A time will come when all people stand on the light side, and peace, unity, balance, and harmony shall reign.
P.S. (2) Natural-intelligent truths…

Every day, tens of thousands die from contaminated water, food, and unsanitary conditions…

The resources of Earth and Space must be used efficiently and distributed among all people for the universal good, harmony, and balance.

Those with access to them must realize: energy (soul) temporarily resides in a physical form, and to aid your energy (soul), you must direct resources toward the common good of all people. For if you have access, you bear immense responsibility for others’ lives. You can provide every person with what they need…

First and foremost, Earth’s and Space’s resources should address humanity’s basic needs: water, food, shelter, safety, health, education…

All people are equal and must live in a single (united) state. A Unified Council for the Care of People and Nature must ensure the well-being of all who inhabit Earth and Space…

Those with resource access who continue mismanaging them—allowing daily deaths—will inflict harm (evil) primarily upon themselves and their energy (soul). At the crossing ("on the other side"), you will be held fully accountable for all your deeds… each of us will be held accountable…

Therefore, reconsider, unite, and direct resources toward universal good—so all people live long and happily, and you "arrive" at the crossing with good deeds. Then beyond it, you may exit samsara or be reborn with a better fate (minimal suffering).

p.s. natural-intelligent truths…

From the moment of birth until departure to the crossing (until the final breath…), every person—must develop themselves...

Our brain, mind—is the most precious thing we possess... for it is where our energy/soul resides...

Nature has endowed each person with certain talents… all to varying degrees… we must identify them (preferably from the first days and years of life, but as they say: "better late than never") and unfold them… practice, refine… throughout life to attain supreme mastery in one or several fields… then a person can bring joy to themselves, all beings, and all… to be in their rightful place in society, in nature... in the universe…

To identify talents, many methods exist—I’ll share my observations: one must try many things… across diverse realms, perhaps… look back into the past (childhood, youth)… understand what one did well… effortlessly… or better than others…

For 30-60 minutes (temporarily) detach completely from money, material goods, and ask yourself: "What do I sincerely wish to devote my life to… attaining mastery, bringing benefit to myself, my energy/soul… how will my work help other people, nature…?"—you might discover 5-10-50… paths… (there is much to choose from…), but you must try, experiment…
Theory is one thing—but theory + practice is what truly matters…

Perhaps immediately, or after 5-10… attempts… or with time, you will discover your talents—what nature endowed specifically you with… and settle on a path, craft, art… to which you will sincerely dedicate your entire life for yourself, all beings, everything, and all…

If a person fails to identify their talents (alone or with others’ help), they commit a crime against nature (likely)…

Everyone without exception is given talents by nature… we are all unique, each in their own way…

p.s. (1): Believe in yourself and your abilities…
p.s. (2): Live for yourself, for all beings, everything, and all…
p.s. (3): Harmony and balance… harmony and balance… harmony and balance…
