WHAT?

 What? What does one write about in the middle of the night? What does one write about in the middle of a war which does not feel like any other war that I have read about and thankfully kept in the "read about" condition? The two countries I hold dearest and closest are at war, fighting a shared enemy, one that poses danger in fact, to the world at large. Actually, the shared enemy of all that is right in this world. An enemy that would as soon rather than lend you a helping hand. Think that I am exaggerating, think that I have gone a tilt? No. Think again and tell me of the complete unvarnished undisguised trust now being disclosed to you within the borders of your ossifying brain? What exactly is your reaction to the clear, unvarnished truth? What exactly Are you trying to shake out of your mind, trying so hard to erect walls and stockades and fortifications against the influx of uncensored truth?  What are you thinking? What in fact do you remember of a straightforward. thinking and appraisal format?

 What exactly is the matter with this world? What is the matter with the people living on it? When and how do you use the skill right and wrong What made us decide that it was not worth anything to be able to separate and discern and rescue nuggets of truth and clearly distinguish right from wrong?    what can you tell me? 

Please explain to me how and why we so twisted education to the point where it is far more supportive of teachers engaged in the proliferation of lies and hatred than one who champions opposition to such anathema?  

What has induced such change within us, within our mental and emotional and moral makeup, that we deny the presence of Evil upon this earth. It's active presence unfortunately is well woven into the fabric of the world at large, too often finding a welcoming warm home in the minds of those who buy into ev The mind and those who prefer to lay down before they lose and the onslaught and go with the flow So much easier for all concerned other, of course, than the victims of said Evil. At times it is so thick upon us that it is palpable, and one can feel its oppressive weight upon one's shoulders. Can feel its destructive tendrils reaching out, attempting to find access to your soul and welcome within.      

What makes one dance into an oblivion which induces one to stand there and protest for their own very determined enemies. If given the opportunity they would their ostensible supporter down and out of this world? 

  What makes a woman stand in rather vociferous voice of support of those who would gladly "gift" them with physical death or the death of a mind, of an individual. Who would certainly crush their attempt to take back their place in the world, deny their uniqueness and stifle any demand of their rights and their rightful place within society.          Even as the deluded stand in support of their predators what makes them oblivious to the truth of the matter? That their predators' victory would deny her humanity, negate her achievements, who suppress her individuality and deny her the opportunity to exercise a fully functioning mind.

What, you tell me, for I can find no excuse whatsoever for a person to stand holding a sign promoting support for the same person, who, if they had their druthers, would as soon as possible hang the sign holder from the nearest lamppost or crane.  Or put the holder to death, to prison, to torture and all of the above. What makes people so willfully blind to their own danger, of the actions they take contraindicated with their own safety and well-being.    

   I simply don't understand the makeup of such people. Or those of you. Who sit there with a smug look on your face sit there with a smug look on your face as you plead ignorance to all of the above, as you deny complicity in the long-range planning, which has led to current day America and the world as well. 

 In brief.

 Why, why, what would induce a person with honorable membership in the LGBTQ+ community to support an administration which deems them subhuman? 

 What would make a woman stand in support of those who continue to view them as chattel, to be restricted, uneducated, even literally silenced. No voice, no face, no life.   

What, what possesses a person to vote to support that which is extremely detrimental to one's life and limbs? What - WHAT?!?

 What exactly is the driving force within a person, So powerful so as to negate all of one's current precepts of a moral and just society, all that they have learned and practiced all their lives. Until now. What can turn a person so drastically from one life to its polar opposite? 

What will it take to convince the members of the human race to trash without any possibility of rebirth, of reinvigoration all the negativity and animosity of the Millennia of the past, of yesterday.   

 What can we expect of our lives of today, so confused, so adulterated that one is hard driven indeed, to separate the wheat from the chaff and thoroughly and totally commit the chaff to eternal oblivion. Despite the best efforts of some excellent people we have not yet succeeded in taking the next step. In fact, I am not even sure that we are in sight of that next step as we stubbornly, ever and always, reignite and revive reformatted versions of the same old, same old. Prejudice and hate. Fear and war. Blood-soaked lands overflowing with the blood already spilt there.

What will be with tomorrow and the tomorrow after that and the tomorrows following in line? Will we never learn to put forward our best and brightest and rather than waste them on the battlefield, task them instead with finding the way out of humanity's ever recurring nightmare. One we both dream and live. No end in sight. 

The only way to change this status quo is an extreme revamping of humanity, turning it inside out, shaking it and putting it back minus the flaws. According to Jewish folklore, there have been approximately seventy universes created before ours. Surely, we have learned enough, know enough, as to how and what needs changing and do so before the creator loses patience with us and on comes universe #72.  

 Until then however, we must move forward with deep and abiding faith that perhaps we can appeal to the endless mercy of the Creator and be provided with enough leeway and time to improve ourselves and be worthy of his compassion, attention, and eternal guardianship.  

What is the answer, the directions as to how to fix the world, change people so, gain the mercy of G-d? I don't know Not even sure if there is any more possibility left. Apparently, all I am good for right now is asking questions.

Would that I knew the what of the missing answers. 

What have you to say?
