The Exploited Word
“You can please some of the people some of the time, but you can not please all of the people all of the time.”
Abraham Lincoln.
Words and their meanings can be made to fit or serve a given purpose.
Mind you that I too will do just that. My intentions are merely to finally
”Come clean” with myself and speak my own mind as I have kept entirely quiet and subdued for far too long. Again I speak not without fact about truth however much simply falls to speculation and hypothesis in quite a few cases as I have by no means “All of the facts” about the meaning of life. Would I tell you if I did? That is a good question and it’s not one that’s going to be up for debate at this time.
What I ask of you the reader is to examine in your own perspective and in your own mind that which I am about to go into very lengthy and detailed description of.
What I leave you with shall be your own decision based on your own choices as to “Why you are here.” This claim I’m certain will be met with instant skepticism of course, but that is exactly my intent and I would have it no other way.
Those who believe they are “All knowing” are found to be the furthest in fact from it, and tend to be nothing more than ignorant. It is when we believe we “know it all” that learning stops. Learning is an essential part of being human as our capacity for knowledge surpasses any other means of data storage or decision making processes both natural and “Man made”.
As “Superior beings” in the animal kingdom we have changed the world around us to suit us. Constantly since the beginnings of man the world has been made a visual representation of mankind and his achievements and disasters. What we learn from are our mistakes and our accomplishments, choices both positive and negative in outcome. If we feel that we have no other choices to make and that we have made only the “Right choice” throughout our life then we must at that point assume we are above all other beings and in fact “perfect”.
As you might expect, yes there are always some exceptions to the rule however in order to assume that one is perfect you must first define “The Perfect Human”, and that I’m sorry to say I have not been privy the knowledge. I may say in fact that I know of no such human nor do I claim to be one myself. The idealism behind “The Perfect Human” is as well far more unrealistic in the simple fact that human nature is based on a learning process of mistakes and achievements. So to say any one person could in fact be perfect is redundant as they had to make mistakes along the way in order to “Be” perfect, to learn by error and imperfection.
Humanity is based on embellishment, each truth must be explained or communicated each experience documented first in our own mind and then we begin the process on how to inform others. In the process of conferring our knowledge we have to translate that which we “know” into words or symbols in order for others to relate. During the process of transferring our knowledge to others we will tend to put things as we see them, our personal perspective. We feel more comfortable speaking as if we are righteous and true in our words and their significance and meaning. We feel more comfortable speaking to “lesser” peers than to who we consider “superior” as we never want to be told we are in fact “wrong” or “misguided”.
Being able to give unbiased and truthful knowledge is a rarely used skill, yet one
given to us at birth. Through our lives we learn to cloud the truth, to lie and to manipulate words to suit our needs or means. We learn the power our words can have over those around us and in our lives.
We learn the brutal consequences they may have and the beautiful rewards they can bring. We learn that knowledge is power. What we chose to do with that power is where I have my own issues. As I commit myself to bringing forth my knowledge I as well have to heed my belief to give it to you straight and unbiased. This however I can do easily. I have no hatred for those who would oppose my beliefs nor for those who would stifle them, merely a sense of frustration having to constantly battle against them for my own chunk of ground.
You may find some of what you read here “unbelievable” and that is up to each reader’s discretion, but what’s important is the ability to not only read with an open mind but to realize and see the possibilities of your own existence. What it is that makes us each unique yet common. Being able to read and interpret the words and meanings of my rant may at times be difficult, but I shall do my best to be clear and concise. Perhaps the knowledge I share will give you guidance or help in your life, this is what it is intended for and nothing more.
As a general disclaimer I would again say my own beliefs and opinions are based on my own perspective and interpretation of the universe, in which I exist, and not to be taken or misconstrued as pure fact or fiction but perhaps a well balanced mixture of both. The topics and subjects herein I shall keep unbiased and truthful based on what facts I myself and others have collected throughout time, and I leave it up to you “The Reader” to make your own choices and decisions in your own lives as I do surely not wish to be responsible for your actions.
They are yours to keep.
I would also like to say beforehand that any opinions of my own will be noted as
such. Personal opinions have a great deal to do with perspective and our ability to separate the two can sometimes be difficult. I will not intentionally slander any religions, governments, groups or individuals as their actions and beliefs speak on their own behalves. You’ll tend to notice that those who can stay “Under The Radar” live out longer fuller lives. Any group or organization will always have the potential to be positive or negative as will those within. It is my belief that a balance of both must in all importance be maintained in each and every one of us.
As we are creatures not only of intelligence but habit we form many habits at an early age. Our parents being our primary source of input initiate most of our habits throughout life in one form or another. This is related to several different topics of course but my point being that habits are hard to break and if you are to truly make the most of this work you must shed many preconceived ideas and habits.
Do not discount the possibilities or the theories herein as to do so would be self defeating in this process of enlightenment. To refuse an idea or concept is to shut out the possibility that it may be in fact potentially realistic.
If Thomas Edison would have shrugged off the possibility of the light bulb where would we be now?
Anything is possible.
Enjoy.
