If you are living a life which you are divided within yourself, you will not succeed as a human being. A divided house will surely fail, fall into ruin. There is no foundation that can exist within a division. There can be a first and second floor, an attic and a basement, but it must be a unified house. Each has its own value system, smell, and frame of mind. Each floor is an important piece of the puzzle, the floors and walls of the house are all needed to make a whole story.
The historical story of humankind has been a repetitive one of indecision, divide and conquer, the haves and the have-nots living in one big house of cards. This house of cards is falling rapidly and the division has left us bleeding at the mouth, ears, and nose.
The earth was formed over 4.54 billion years ago in the midst of a volcanic rage that created a primordial atmosphere, then the ocean. It wasn’t until the earth cooled and oxygen was formed, did the earth became habitable. Earth was born of the explosion of energy and cell division to finally become whole, as itself. It went from being in a stage of having no oxygen available to sustain animal or human life to being able to sustain human and animal life with food, water, and air.
There is a purpose to the state of division, a time of breaking apart to come back together to be a higher form of being. It is a journey to becoming the full story we were meant to be. It is a state of developing sentences, paragraphs, and chapters which all make the on-going story come alive. In these days and times, it is time to turn the page because there is more to the book. Before things fall apart we must stitch the pages of the human story back together with the pages securely together, front and back covers in place.
Do not allow fear, lack, or the division of purpose within yourself to stop you from being a highly functional modern citizen.

Sometimes things just have to fall apart to get better. It is just a time of birthing. Division creates diversity. The type of division that creates strength and promotes growth is an evolutionary expansion based in support of the species. A birthing of new choices creates new results. Sometimes we just need to breathe fresher air.
When we use division to be divisive, it does not support or elevate the process of life on any level. Withholding access to mutual support does not support transformation or allow the unification of story to be developed. We have a transformational story to be told. It is a story that is based in collective growth and diversity, a mutual state of dignity to be had by all involved.
Every piece of the puzzle has to be honored. Every voice in the human choir has to be heard in a cooperative harmony. New notes will be birthed from the joining of forces and ideas. Every ear has to be compassionately open to truly listen to the story be revealed. You have to be ready to clean house, wash the walls and scrub the floors, sometimes clean the windows.
Accountability is the key word of development and integrity as we continue our birthing process as a people and a nation. Accountability is being able to be transparent and open to new ideas. Accountability means to be prepared to move forward in unity of purpose, growth.
When the world was able to support human life and the act of self-replication, a reason to live beyond a personal life was born. So, in the spirit of living beyond today and our immediate family members, let us unify in cause and spirit and support our planet and our human lives. The earth has developed in support of itself and the inhabitants of our planet.
In the name of power, we human beings have forgotten the struggle of a human life to merely exist. In the name of power, let’s do more than survive, but thrive. In the name of power, we as a people have created ways to enslave other human beings as a work force in order to maintain a certain lifestyle.
Equal opportunities in the workplace, in the society as a whole will cool the rage of the people wanting change.

A division of people, even within the human family, is not what we want or need to happen. In the name of joint power, let’s work together to undo the societal division that has been created. Shared power is the answer to the growth needed to support the human life force.
Being able to support oneself, emotionally, physically and spiritually is the key to balance and a happy life. Once you have nurtured a sense of being in the state of compassion and kindness can you know the feeling of possibilities and hope. We need to honor the reflections of life and respond to those reflections with love and compassion.
It seems as human beings once we learned how to farm and grow food in mass, the time to create a class system was born. Someone had to work the fields and bring the food to market and someone had overseen the production. A class system soon was developed.
As we evolve as a people, hopefully we will evolve beyond race, gender, and class. Equal opportunities in the workplace, in the society as a whole will cool the rage of the people wanting change. A new system of being in balance must be born. It is time to eliminate the metaphor of the falling house of cards. We need to stop bleeding from the nose and mouth and come together in the spirit of the divine and not living in the divisiveness of our historical human divide.

This class/caste system of haves and have nots needs to be addressed and can no longer be ignored. Used to have a good system after the Great Depression and World War II where people could have a decent life but all that change with the election of Reagan.
A very interesting and poetic insight; I liked the analysis, and I think it suggests -at the very least- the power & potential of a more unified, equitable and positive future trajectory: Human potential & choice can be unifying, as well as divisive, reductionist, or confrontational; not all is an overarching, pre-ordained class-conflict model of inevitable, trans-historic division, confrontation and animus. Not all human equations or potentialities are destined only to be (simply by necessity or inevitability) only ‘zero-sum’ ones. Thank you very much for the article.
