speaking about war

Everyones talking about it.
some are doing it.
others are waiting for it
others have already done it

When you actually think about what war is, it changes the prospective or outlook as one sees it. We have wars because someone or someones have decided that they want something and can't have what someone else has. So, this person or persons sends his/her armies out to take it.

War on this level is a game played in a secure room on a large map sliding toys across the grid. those toys, are our Brothers, Sisters, Mothers and Fathers. For them, war isn't the same type of game. For them, it's do what war is all about. They kill or be killed. I think that the leaders who wanted the war should go battle it out instead of hiding behind a man made shield.

peace is more than a five letter word

No, we don't contact everyone. We want people who think outside the box. Hoping we hear from you, Leonard

"War is Obsolete"

The human race has evolved over thousands of years,
and like all animals killing was the way we servived.
Killing our own kind, when they came into our territory,
or when we wanted thier territory.

Human beings have been the most violent animal on earth.
We kill other humans, for no physiological reason.
Over thousands of year's, we are still killing. Creating
reasons for control and power over others,not for thier
welfare, but for our Domination.

We have been taught to be proud of the war concept. Marching
off to war to kill or be killed.So imersed in this belief,
that most people do not "Think" anything else possible.
Our minds just go to, us and them, do it to them before they
do it to us. This attitude could be our end.

We have been manipulated, brainwashed, and turned into Robots.

Wake up!!"War is Obsolete,"It's time to evolve forward.

The truth is there is no us and them, there is just US.
The fight began within ourselves.

WE NEED A DEPARTMENT OF PEACE, FOR ALL HUMANITY!!

Okay, I'll bite....

Step 1 - The Box = the status quo, the static view; Thinking Outside the Box = submitting different goals and means to the light of conscious compassion. (Thank you, NVC, for the apt phrasing).

Step 2 - Them = those who do not serve joy and life; Us = those who serve joy and life.

Step 3 - Done.

Step 4 - I evaluate the person in the mirror as one who Thinks Outside the Box and is one of Us.

Step 5 - The one in the mirror plays the hand she's dealt and does the best she can with what she's got.

If that makes me arrogant, oh, well!
