We wear Masks every day… different ones for different people places and things…. Today I’ll remove my mask of the (all in save the human species humanitarian) in order to do two things, one embrace the reality of things Ive learned like the Objective Consequences of a personally shortsighted perspective, (Taking in Syrian Refugees across the Globe regardless) based in a lack of knowledge, and as the knowledge grows I can No longer just wear the mask and act Ignorant… being from Texas and having been raised by one hella fine Man “Paul Merril Young” my grand father who was and still is @ the age of 98 yrs, quite frankly the at the pinnacle all American male role model, 25 years in the navy, 25 years in the post office, 13 more years in civil service home land security, married to the same woman for 68 years and the only reason they aren’t together anymore is because “Till death do us part has come to pass for my grandmother” Stupidity is one thing, you just don’t know any better, that can be tolerated to a certain point, But Ignorance! Now that’s a hole different ball game all together, IGNORANCE you know better but you keep doing the same dumb shit as if you don’t! that just wont fly ever! Paul Young was very adamant about this in his house and had a no exception to the rule policy, one of many of his finer traits I ADOPTED AS WELL.
Secondly i remove the mask to simply expose My Intense Cognitive Dissonance as it grows incredibly fast and powerful in my experience, in relation to The Syrian Refugee Crisis.
Ive lived in a bubble with a spiritual teacher for almost 12 years and I missed allot of real world events and change in the last decade. Everyday I learn more and more of the decimation/human suffering that our world and its inhabitants are in……. I realize more and more how so many of the systems that are supposed to be in place to keep these kinds of event horizons from happening are Either not being implemented for some profitable reasons, lack there of, plain and simple manipulation of the systems for reasons driven by self centered, self aggrandizing, profiteering propaganda, to keep humanity in a constant state of fear and suffering so that the people manipulating the systems can stay in power and in control…..
So now I have to look at things differently… How to do as much as humanly possible to help Syrian Refugees by doing both, taking them into other country’s to the capacity the wont dislodge economic stability and cultural balance to a dysfunctional irreparable state….. and then simply saying no….. leave them right where they are, and make the U.N do there JOB. Then decide for myself and ask others to do the same…. now how do we do everything humanly possible to help those whom must stay in the trenches while the root of the problem gets dealt with? In other words roll up our sleeves and go into places like Turkey were 49% of the 6 million Syrian Refugees are displaced within Europe and start working at fixing whats broken right there at home?
I don’t have these answers at the moment, as time goes on and I do more research and listen to those who do have experience in such matters and do have answers to these types of questions….. I struggle daily with Cognitive Dissonance as my heart literally aches and tears fall from my face in buckets everyday as I trudge through the endless torment of information warfare within my mind and soul……
