MEN OF PEACE
"I don't know how to save the world. I don't have the answers or The Answer. I hold no secret knowledge as to how to fix the mistakes of generations past and present. I only know that without compassion and respect for all Earth's inhabitants, none of us will survive - nor will we deserve to." Leonard Peltier

Equality
Equality
“The craving for equality can express itself either as a desire to pull everyone down to our own level or as a desire to raise ourselves up along with everyone else.” –Friedrich Nietzsche
Equality.
It is a great ideal and a marvelous target, but really hard to work out with consistent action.
I know.
I have three granddaughters.
They take turns having their weekend at our home. It works best that way because then I can give my full attention to each granddaughter when it is their turn.
The problem is, if one gets something, then the other one wants it too. So this becomes an arms race of sorts with mutually-assured misery because it never quite feels like they got the full measure as the previous sister.
I try to be fair. I take great pains to plan and put together fun activities for each girl based on her maturity level. The devil in the details is the infernal comparing of themselves to the others and their notion that somehow they got the short straw. It is always the two who were not at my house who are lamenting, “No fair!” when the returning child talks about what we did. It will always be this way. When we compare ourselves to others in order to despise their blessings, we will always be the ones saying “No fair!” about their status compared to ours.
It is a dangerous game to play.
You can become set in your view and then begin the destructive cycle of longing to bring the other down a peg or two in your envious zeal.
We can see that occurring in our own culture. Class Warfare and Facebook one-uppers abound form a destructive vortex that can become a black hole if tolerated and fed.
The converse is the willingness to reach back and lift up. That is not Class Warfare….that is just class.
I pray that my granddaughters will learn the way of lifters and not yankers from below.
It is a choice that each of us make each and every day.
In the name of equality, may we all strive to be equally loving and caring today.
Galatians 3:28, New International Version (NIV): "There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.“

Anyone is welcome to use their voice here at FREEDOM OR ANARCHY,Campaign of Conscience.THERE IS NO JUSTICE IN AMERICA FOR THOSE WITH OUT MONEY if you seek real change and the truth the first best way is to use the power of the human voice and unite the world in a common cause our own survival I believe that to meet the challenges of our times, human beings will have to develop a greater sense of universal responsibility. Each of us must learn to work not just for oneself, ones own family or ones nation, but for the benefit of all humankind. Universal responsibility is the key to human survival. It is the best foundation for world peace,“Never be afraid to raise your voice for honesty and truth and compassion against injustice and lying and greed. If people all over the world...would do this, it would change the earth.” Love and Peace to you all stand free and your ground feed another if you can let us the free call it LAWFUL REBELLION standing for what is right
