Ah. Once again, after six days wait. Friday, the one beloved work day for those who
work Monday to Friday cycle. I have always felt different on Friday mornings. I wake up with a certain desire to actually go out there and get things done. It is almost euphoric- surely on Thursday morning I could never feel this excited about life. If only every day could be like Friday.
The weather has been so indecisive as of late. Either that or the weather people are lying to us. I could have sworn every day this week they called for thunder storms. But we really never got any storms. It spitted a bit this morning and we got a little rain on Wednesday evening. Regardless, it is spitting today, if only we could get a nice long rain fall. I feel as if we have been in drought, yet everyday I walk outside and it is intensely humid. But again, I'm no meteorologist.
I have recently finished reading 'Brave New World' By Aldous Huxley. It disturbs me right to the inner marrow in my in my thickest bones, that this piece of literature was written in the 1930's. The book touches so many human aspects yet through a shocking display- void of real humanism. It is the lack of humanity that I believe Aldous was trying to display. And now nearly one hundred years later. I woke up this morning, feeling almost as if we are living such as they did in the 'The brave new world'. Is it coincidental that both Bernard and I share the same feeling of being different? Seeing that things are wrong. Seeing through the conditioning. Or is it just natural human tendency to reject something that you have always been taught to be right, thus being possibly shunned for your out of turn thoughts, that challenge their own.
Then again human conditioning is not exactly new to the world. As Huxley explained,
was it possible that religion its self was the beta for human conditioning? All to ultimately distance it's self so far from 'God' to the point where belief and faith would now never be known again?
Many people claim religion just results in unreasoned hate and exclusivity. Why is it that so many ancient religions did not fear each other as much as they feared their god or gods? When did people really start to separate God from their cultures?
Is it the final evolution of man and the human condition to inevitably be void of God and all things holy?
I could easily suggest from everything we are seeing today in the news and media is all intended to make us fear something. Yet, as 'm sure many people already witness everyday for them selves. We have become desensitized to everything. Does fear really rule over our curiosity?
I will leave with this, why is it that we slow down when we see a brutal car accident?
Why do we indulge in disturbing things?
Is it also human to hunt negative thoughts...
Right...Balance.
