Reality

What is really going on?
Man have become so used to “handling” every situation, that it is hard tell when he is being truthful.
All the masks; yet, the falsities of this life have become the accepted norm.
The cause of this injustice to all; the individual and devoted drive to preserve… “Self”.

Man’s ability to care for each other is diminishing; and along with it, honesty.
The saddest is how we convince ourselves that it is okay to manipulate the truth to suit us best.
Yet, in our hearts; there exist a longing that others won’t do that to us, but they do.
It is an evil cycle of action, reaction, motivator, reaction, motivator, reaction…

Man’s ability to trust is fragile; while his ability to become trustworthy is greatly based on luck or charm.
It now appears that life is confounded, with only a few left capable of living in truth.
I have been a fool for believing in man’s good core; mankind has become completely spoiled.
Maybe, it would be better to destroy this botched existence; for I fail to identify any righteousness left.

So, there appears then to be some unspoken truths; stability in the anticipation of the selfish nature of man.
Most then care for themselves only; while some will care for themselves firstly, and then consider others.
For a very few; life will be completely intolerable as the stench of its decay will suffocate their being.
At times, I fail to comprehend the necessity of life; the purpose of it void of any nobility, it’s bland!

Call me insane, depressed or narcissistic; then I’ll call you a blind fool that believe all the lies of this world.
Come on… does money have real value; enough to justify the death of someone that is hungry?
Sure, life is a game and some rules are needed; but come on… let’s at least be civil.
Call me gullible, for I have easily been deceived; I trusted man’s inherent desire to do well.

My being has grown weary; exhausted by these one sided love affairs.
I have invested my passion and vigor in this life and its people; expecting a return, what a fool I’ve been.
Finally, I have reached my end; no more freebies out of my hands.
If I choose to trash my religion today, I could easily make my life end.

But… here; things get a complete, refreshed perspective; God changes things!
My mind can toil forever to comprehend the apparent insanity of this world;
            but with the comfort of knowing His Spirit, my being calms down in one breath.
He is in control; and then there is absolutely nothing left to fear.

I am a logical, intellectual being as God created me.
Faith is not covered by logic; often, logic simply stands in the way of spiritual development.
However; logic can not reduce the knowledge I have of God and His actions, either.
When you have been touched by God in any form; it is known to you, it is clear; it does not change.

I agree with one saying; that maybe, just maybe… life here was not ever meant to be grant!
For the longing in our hearts should be to share eternity with Him, in another dimension.
