About

We, as people, see the world as we want it to be.
We rarely see it as it is.
If we want to be effective agents of change,
to make the world as we want it to be.
We must first, see it as it is.

Rarely does this clarity of vision happen simply from desire, or loose intention.
Perspective is defined by experience, Most lives are lived within a specific defined social pathway.
We see interesect others on different pathways and through social prejudgement stay safely in our bubble.
Remember no one is evil, and when you find one you judge, try to understand what is human and alive and in them.
Once you find that humanity in them, you can begin to understand them, and mabye even raise there awareness.

I was by fate, placed in the shoes of the ones I had judged enemy. I had to ask myself how did I get here, was I wrong?
I discovered that many of the judgements I had: Judgements of who the enemies were, of what is wrong, These Judgements were taken at faith value, they were the product of peer pressure and social conditioning. Because these were values not associated with the dominant conventional culture, they were more often defined against conventioinal culture, I had never applied my protectvie critical analytical tools on them.  In lefty culture there is allot of time spent defining the enemy. To be prescise, the word enemy is never really used, that would be stoping to their level.

Be careful who you hate, and define negatively. They might just be natural human beings you dont understand.  The more enemies you define, the less friend you have. The less friends you have the less mutually benificial solutions you will find.
