for some years now it has been the writer's intention to write

an entry specifically addressing the problems

that accompany people's sense of identity

the entry, called identity, responsibility and happiness, was

inspired by a neils bohr, appears to have found its

natural place and the time here

 

two of the main causes that furnish the divisions between us and

which allows wars and animosity to flourish are

nationality and ethnicity

it was recognised many years ago that a persons identity is

tightly bound up with her and his (mainly his)

sense of national identity

it is so thoroughly ingrained into a persons sense of identity

that the mere mention of not seeing oneself as

not belonging to the country they live in

has a treacherous tinge to it

 

" for king and country " is, and has been for many centuries,

the rallying cry when mustering a fighting force

it is currently being successfully

reinforced via the

oligarch-controlled mainstream media

for a day or two just count the number of times the word

british or england is used on british t.v. programmes

and you will get the picture and understand

why it is that

britain is the most unequal society in the western world

it's not just this country, it's all of them

even the handful of countries who aren't

controlled by the oligarch's do it

it's the same systemic creeping-death that has found its way

into every country in the world via the old testament

through the notion of unintentional murder

there is some relief coming through the european union which

is successfully ridding the continent of the nationalistic

outlook which whips up divisions but even

here religion is a closet issue

 

the problem of identity has its roots in a person's inability to compare the finite numerical

value of individuals against the overwhelming and incomprehensible

reality of endless space

the realization of just how thinly spread out life is within the

infinite will produce the recognition of just how

appallingly few of us there are

what people see around them in the world is the complete

opposite of our timeless, eternal reality

over-crowded cities, self-serving motivations, people ready to

snuff out people's lives at the drop of a hat

 it's a complete nightmare

the extremes are being pointed out in an attempt to bring

about a thought or two in your mind that the here

and now is no more than a fleeting moment

of the greater reality awaiting

those who choose it

the changes that are going to happen over this coming millennium alone

are beyong most peoples ability to envisage

it's time to start thinking beyond your lifetime

thinking beyond your lifetime will make the future more of a reality

forget about people who want to keep things the way they are

they belong to the past

 

this dream itself is the second one in which an inter-action

with an african woman has contained insights

both the first one and this one have in common that aspect of

character which is so appealing it borders on fantasy

all four of the ethnicities have their fair share of devolving beings

and it will serve us well to keep in mind the bigger

picture of evolution before allowing ourselves

to form outlooks that favour

one over the other

any thought which reduces the stature of other beings will

reduce your own standing within love/life

the frame of mind that will keep you on an even keel should

be along the lines of recognising that the frailties and

foibles between one type of man shaped being and

anothercame and come from the mistake

 

we live in linear time and it's not possible to turn back the

clock

 however, it is possible, through repetitive practise, to rectify

those things which do not contain the unreality of non existence

the more often you think the thought that all man shaped

beings are/were invaluable the more you become part

of the forward thrust of life

 

by taking responsibility for your thoughts and identifying with

all other man shaped beings the happiness this fleeting

time reality contains will produce the feel for life expressed in

this dream
