Wisdom posits that there is no absolutism. What is the value of light when there is no darkness? What is the worth of a mirror without the capacity to reflect the image before it? What is the proof of strength of a warrior without an adversary? Good & evil are twin concepts.
Light don’t fight darkness but simply shines. Even God Almighty kept the Devil in play for a purpose. Freedom is Freedom. The will of the people must never be imfringed upon by wishful souls with utopian dreams. Love people in their uniqueness & define your boundaries.
We need a generation of leaders who understands that we all don’t have to be the same and like the same. We were all created uniquely. A genuine leader will find common ground that brings all to the table & create opportunity for all to facilitate individual expression of will.
There are no mad people and normal people. We equally have a share in the good and madness. We all have our days. Profiling people makes us less humane. Humanity must unite us all. Love is all. This should be the beginning of redefinition of paradigm in our society.
The vestiges of untreated post traumatic stress syndrome of military interregnum always coerce us into demanding chains of slavery all in the name of seeking safety, normalcy or the predictable. We must embrace transcendence and rise beyond our comfort zones where nothing grows.
You can’t wipe out madness. Those we deem mad have identified our insanity too. Calling for a wipe out is asking for the initiation of mutually assured destruction. We must avoid binary thinking, we must rise above mechanistic physiology & think deeper.
Matthew 13:25-30
But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.
But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.
So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares? He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?
But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.
Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.
There is a reason behind the exploration of motives when a crime has been committed. We don’t just waste people based on prejudice, projections and the need to judge. After all it is better for a hundred (madmen) criminals to escape than for an innocent man to die unjustly.
The aim of any transcendent leader MUST never be to punish or fight perceived enemies. It however must be to execute a strategic and deliberate action taken to course correct culture by the subtle, gradual & systemic policies, programs & constructs that manage future developments
Human beings remain creatures of habit and you can’t change anyone overnight. To obtain anything from a child you must present something better that interests them enough to forget the old. When people’s choices are inimical to society they need intervention not death. 🚨
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
