Where To Start

There are many things to say and issues to tackle. It is fascinating when it comes to starting; it seems crucial to make it right on the first try. Why not?

Everyone aspires to get everything right on the first try and solve everything right away. Of course, maybe there’s truth in that since few have experienced winning the lottery and others had a good break on the first try. For others or most, it takes more than one shot. Some reached hundreds or thousands of trials before achieving some success. Let us not also forget a number of those who failed. So, what sets apart those who had it good from the onset?

Of course, there are reasons or root causes for anything. There are certain principles that these fortunate people have applied and led to their rewards. How could they have known? Perhaps, innocently, the providential people have stumbled upon these principles and incorporated them as their values. Eventually, they were worthy of such fortune and would like to keep it that way at all costs even though they know their time is up.

But, before any endeavor, we always start with a purpose. A purpose that was formed out of the present shocking issues, which leads to a burning commission. For this blog, it began witnessing the blatant unreliable focus on advancing technology and the dismissal of the overarching divide between men.  In addition, the screaming demand for attention to the increasing gap between the rich and poor or the learned has been relentless. To cap it all, there was the starked disturbing revelation on the deteriorating conditions of health worldwide.

A man may continue to pride in skyscrapers, unimaginable wealth, and taking over of others. However, most of the places on earth being populated are now a wasteland and, so are the inhabitants. Beasts and men are tired and worn out from exceeding accumulation, countless late nights’ busyness, and so emptied by the division. All of these are cascaded by the leaderships of various institutions such as politics, economics, entertainment, and religion.

Of course, these claimed front-liners have made many good and advancements. Knowledge or information has been exploding and made available to all. But, the greedy continue to lead the downfalls of humanity, repeatedly in history, and they are let loose and even take charge.

Strangely, we are approaching the close or middle of the 6th millennia or the 21st century of the common era. Still, we have made small progress in recognizing the pitfalls of these “shepherds” and the deceptions of their tactics.

Let us expose the manipulating schemes which lead to further wasting of our humanity. Let us see the treacherous tactics which carry us to the destruction of our dwelling. Let us press on to pursue the right way of living and relating.

May G-D have mercy on us all.
