Any time a person or a group has an advantage over another, trying to convince them convince them through logic or whatever means, morality, empathy, compassion… to let loose of that advantage so that equality may spawn, call a quality of life for all maybe above a certain level.. It may not even be an issue of quality of life per se (but on the other hand, what isn’t about quality of life) – Anyways, as I was saying, trying to get a person or a group to give up that advantage advantage in the name of fairness, justice, equality… is often an uphill battle. As I mentioned in the previous post, equal rights for black’s, equal rights for women, equal rights for people of different sexual orientation/gender… not because of their sexual orientation but because they’re human beings and children of God, The people who have advantages are feel empowered over them – Refused to readily give up their advantage when in fact they should have done so willingly as a matter of Justice, fairness, love for their fellow man.

Who didn’t see who didn’t see the price of gold surpassing the price of platinum coming? Well it is true that platinum is a heavier metal, and perhaps even more rare(?), the applications and beauty of gold far surpass anything else. But since we’re so out of touch most of us can see these things coming.

I read an article on James Brolin, and in it there was a comment by a co-star from a television series “Hotel” where she mentions that while working with him, she picked up on his ability (mindfulness) to make a woman feel safe -and how important that is. Women are not the only ones who feel unsafe, insecure, less than. But I have met very few women in my life who have made an effort to console me in these areas. You say it’s different for a woman-I say not in all instances. Being abused by a number of women in my childhood, mama I feel very unsafe for unsafe around certain women -usually the kind who could give a damn about the fact that I feel unsafe around them. 🤔 Again, usually the people who have an advantage are the ones who feign equality while the ones who are at a disadvantage cry out for it -and more! I’ll tell you a little known secret about inequality among human beings – Many of the people at the bottom of the heap wouldn’t act any differently if they were at the top of it. Karma!

Something that many of us do not give much it’s not giving much weight to is the fact that men are not born of men and women born of women. Is both men and women are born of a woman. Men and women both experienced vulnerability in the arms of their mother -a woman. Now as we grow older, we come to recognize this gender difference. However men and women alike, have or share this single fact of life, And in many cases it presents a conflict. The fact that men are not like women nor women like men come and the fact that we men came from a woman. Imagine being born of a woman come and later in life finding yourself at odds with the opposite sex as a man! With women it could be a triple issue. Being born of a woman. Being at odds with women. And the fact that you yourself are a woman. My point is that there’s got to be an enormous differentiation differentiation between sexes comit says come and the fact that we are both born from one sex -a woman. Can you figure out what some of those ramifications might be? (+/-)?

You know, there’s just something about people who feign money, [rewards, gifts, honors 🎖… may as well throw these in].

Just as people notice when we are selfish, thoughtless, malicious; tthey also notice when we are selfless, thoughtful, and loving. But to be such, usually requires 2 things:

1. Sacrifice;

2. Humilty.

Unfortunately, peoples resources and their ego tend to be the things they guard most. As an Alcoholics Anonymous, surrender is the final frontier of many an alcoholic, but it’s the only thing that will save them. Unfortunately for the human race, our resources and our egos are the final frontier, and letting go of them is perhaps the only thing that will save 🇺🇸 US. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷‍♂️ Just as we propagate bitterness, fear, contempt into the world through our actions; we can also bring joy, security, acceptance.
