Arrival

"Where are we"?

Picture a giant techno snowball with arms and legs sticking out, tumbling down a hill.  Every so often you hear panicked voices but they're ignored as a robotic arm reaches out and hits a kill switch, tuning out the noise.

We've seen that there are evolutionary steps required in order for civilizations to evolve and advance:
Gutenberg's Printing Press, the discovery of fire, Alexander Fleming's discovery of penicillin.

Obviously some of the events mentioned above have merit and deserve much credit but there's something missing today in our quest to further improve technology.  What is it?

Answer:  The spiritual aspect of humanity in all of this.   

We seem to have forgotten that human beings are comprised of a soul along with a mind and a body.  

We've made some much needed strides and progress in pushing humanity forward (improving work conditions, encouraging liberty and freedom, innovative new machines that go faster and are more efficient and learning about our DNA.  These are all important but only make up a portion of the bigger picture.

Are we being purposely programmed by a select few elite gate keepers who now fancy themselves gods and pushing us to believe as they do, that technology is the end product to all of our problems?
Could it be that we've lost our way in that ego and money now trump just about anything and when you have all you need in life you're not concerned with your compassionate, spiritual side but only interested in looking for more proven avenues of revenue such as sex, drugs and violence?    


Why don't we ask the other two-thirds of humanity who are struggling with just staying alive for one more day or the mother whose baby is dying from some virulent disease or the millions addicted to pain meds or the homeless invading cities and towns if technology has ever bothered to help them.    

It's time to stop hitting the kill switch.

It's time to put our gigantic egos and money aside in favor of our spiritual side for if we don't there surely will be a reckoning and we might be seeing the beginning of this now.        

It's time to put the human back into humanity.
