Thread Starter | Where is it put?
I´m sitting before the screen, planned to continue session work, but I am distracted, can´t concentrate. Do you know that feeling to not even basically understand the world? Seriously, it feels strange. Very strange. It is about ignorance. Ignorance hasn´t always been bad. I has been necessary on our evolutionary way. But meanwhile with the impact we have our development can´t follow the circumstances we excert. We are still ignorant while digging the worlds grave. Weeks ago I read that the last gorillas are being minced to sausages and that the African wild life as the richest of all continents will be eaten up in ten to 15 years completely. Yesterday then I read an article reporting what is just happening to the last wild urangutans. Remember about the aps coming to people villages years ago after they had burned down most of the jungle, so that the starving rest approached and was beat half to death with baseball sticks and the like for "steeling" fruits from private trees? In Geo now there were photos of how they do to these animals meanwhile and they describe how the damn people kill up to four femals until the manage to catch one baby to sell it on the market. Urangutans now are in the same situation like gorillas. No way back for them. They are on their way dying out. Period. There was one pic of a teen urang female in her cage with only her thumb left over on her hand. Her "owners" had chopped off four of her fingers for her having "stolen" eggs. I cannot spell my feelings I am about getting mad. Insane. Out of order. If you think my intention would be a moralistic to say "See, I care and you don´t" you would misunderstand. That is not at all what I think about. But while I see that almost everybody is having the same themes just like decades ago, like what´s up in the charts, in the cinema, in what school to put their children in or thelike, I don´t get where they put it. It is like someone totally concentrated on polishing a boot while the ocean is vaporizing in front of his nose. People wonder in what school to put their kids in? What is it worth for? Will it be better to suffocate as a car mechanic or as a lawyer? Now, those among you who live that way will tell me "Leave me alone with that depressing crap!" or "My gush! Stop whining, if you are really so much into it go to Sumatra, Siberia or Africa and help the apes, tigers, lions whatsoever instead!" But it would be a stupid reaction. First, because nothing will disappear when you put it "out of your life", secondly there are already great people who went to the places to help and what they can do this way unfortunately is worth to the general situation not much more then nothing. Obligatory defending a comfortable state of mind is what makes a human being just as simple as he regards unaware species. All that I know of would mean that the end of the earth will come anyway in a very few decades. But if there is something like hope, if there is something that could interfere to this totally unnecessary perversity than it is one single occurance. The one that you don´t think of. The only way of change would be if themes like exploitation, recklessness and distroyment would become part of our thoughts. Not being suppressed but being let in one´s life even with its dark colour ( you can´t have Disneyland all the time anyway, forget it ). This way it would become part of our conversation, it could then become socially acceptable and only this way become demand of a majority. Enjoy "Matrix", the new "Terminator" and don´t stop talking about sportcars and football, but let the threats in your mind too, take it the way it comes, realize what it means even when it supposedly seems to happen all so far away. Let the dirt have its place in your head, in your kids, your neighbours, colleagues. If you don´t, it could be that you would regret it one day more than anything else you might have done wrong in your life. It might be you can´t just slip away like your grandpa and father might have. The times are very much changing these days compared to ever before. I know that there are many bright persons here and thus my hope that typing this could reveal any kind of value somehow. Thank you for listening / reading. Please don´t concentrate on about "who" or "how" said this, just take the meaning behind the words please. Thanks!
