Part 5 – Haribo’s and Strawberries…
It’s perfectly logical to think that if we appease everybody, we all win. But both history and profound spiritual morality show us that appeasement never works. Why? Appeasement emerges from self-interest. It’s not about other parties being happy. It’s about the appeaser being happy…such a model for collective peace and prosperity can never work.
With so much information out there, it’s hard to know who or what to trust. Survival instinct is fantastic for physically perilous fight or flight situations, but I would never trust it as the driver for higher moral reasoning or the deduction of the world’s deeply enigmatic mysteries. Such trust can only be given to one source for “we can only have one master.” …better make sure it’s the right source…
Survival is limited to ‘self’ preservation. Its deception lies in that it can produce good intentions that present a superficial morality. It also deceives with parental instincts which reveal an automatic-morality. But its nature is truly selfish in every single way. Only a severe trial of anguish can remove the mask of survival, revealing its ugly visage of naked shopping aisles and fear-inspired messages.
People say time heals wounds, but if not healed with the utmost care, these wounds become scars that can be reopened again, and again…
Hope is stronger than fear…
