Why the Hell have I felt so compelled / drawn / obligated / required to:
* Sit in front of the White House 23 hours per day?!?!?!?!?!?
* Leave my $500,000 household to live in a car on a hunger strike for Children in Chester PA
* Withdraw so entirely from the safety and comforts of our US society?
* Etc, Etc....
This is a big part of what has been going on. Intuitively and unconsciously I have been realizing and reacting to the FACT that:
I AND YOU CANNOT ESCAPE THAT 24/7:
* I AM A WITNESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SIMPLY BY HOW I LIVE MY LIFE I AM WORKING TO CONVICT / CONVINCE SOMEONE. THIS IS INESCAPABLE.
* YOU ARE A WITNESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SIMPLY BY HOW YOU LIVE YOUR LIFE YOU ARE WORKING TO CONVICT / CONVINCE SOMEONE. THIS IS INESCAPABLE.
MY LIFE, the way I have lived has been a WITNESS that:
* There is not worldwide poverty.
* U.S. ACTUALLY STANDS FOR "liberty and justice for all."
* Capitalism is at worst value neutral.
* Capitalism is NOT sanctioned war on and exploitation of the weak in the U.S, around the globe.
* There was no genocide in Cambodia.
* There was no murderous neglect of children in Chester/Camden/Philadelphia/NYC....
* There was no genocide in Rwanda.
* Etc.
* Etc.
* Etc ....
NOW THAT I SEE WHAT I WAS DOING:
* I SEEM TO HAVE LOST THE ABILITY TO WITNESS TO THESE LIES.
* I CAN'T BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THESE ATROCITIES.
CAN YOU?
