LOOK LEFT, LOOK RIGHT, STEP FORWARD by The Gent

What I am writing today, I am hoping everyone relays to their loved ones, especially their children and grandchildren. Today's world is falling into a giant "Black Hole," with subtle, ill-meaning suggestions aiming toward the annihilation of "Mankind." We all are being sucked into a "Black Hole" of false hope and distorted realizations. While watching TV or on computers, iPhones, etc. someone is lying to us or some commercial is trying to take money out of our pockets.

Try this it will make your life easier or food taste better. Almost nothing that comes easy, except a smile, is good for us.

This brings me to another "descent." Why are they trying to make things easier for us?

Is it just for that almighty dollar? The majority of the population is getting fatter and lazier with franchised food, delivered food, frozen food, etc. We are getting fatter and lazier because we are told, that someone or something can do it for us. This will only make us unhealthy, unneighborly, and die sooner.

The next "trip" are drugs being pushed upon us. One advertisement after another wants us to become "zombies" with dependencies. Keeping us dumb and dumber! Here are some drug-induced "bright ideas."

Violence is ok, properly used! Take a drug and separate yourself from the real world. Buy takeout for the family meal. Cooking for a loved one is for suckers! If you don't like what your spouse says divorce him or her in a "nanosecond." Another popular solution is to move far away and isolate yourself and your children from the people who love them.

With these "stumbles" how can love exist? How can health and happiness survive?

Hate your neighbor, hate your adversary, hate a different race or gender, hate government, hate education, and institutions that are not the answer for you, and break out on your own. Climate change is a hoax. Disrespect the elderly, they know nothing. Forget about the distorted past.

Where are we headed except into a giant "Black Hole" of oblivion and destruction?

Teach your children and grandchildren, to respect and protect their money. Let them do things on their own. Forget about drugs. Create or build something for someone you love. Listen to your grandparents and respect authority. Say hello or good morning to a neighbor. Open the door for someone. Let the car pass in front of you. Be kind and generous to the less fortunate. Don't move so far away. Don't be afraid to say I love you to your closest admirers. Truly, stop and smell the roses. Sometimes chasing money is not the answer. There’s a "Black Hole" of destruction we are falling through. Let us fill up the “Hole” with respect and love or else!

From a reader:
Wow! Much of what you pointed out is very true. I think it all goes back to family values, beliefs and general up-bringing. Nothing is more important than family. If family is the center of your life, then you learn all the values that go along with it. Such as respect for others, helping one another (your fellow man), doing something good/kind for others in the form of charity, learning how to do things for yourself and those around you; learn how to cook, do laundry, clean a house, take care of little children (teach them/show them love and respect.) Know that education is a privilege, a gift...take it, embrace it and then go out and make your way in the world. Earn and save money to do the things you want and, to use that money to share with those less fortunate. All these things all go back to Family; these are the values that are taught from when you're born.(at least from where I see it)
Technology has it's place certainly, regarding science and medicine. But when it gets carried over into our everyday lives where it consumes everything we do, then we are headed into that "black hole". It's up to us, to family to regulate what our children do, what our schools are teaching and what our gov't. tells us and wants of us. Don't believe everything you see and hear on the news...form your own judgement. Use the God-given intelligence and talents/gifts you were born with to live your life and share it with the rest of humanity. If we just sit back and do nothing, then we have bought that ticket to that "black hole"! Agreeing with you on much of what you said but, adding my view and opinion. CL
