Time and again I find myself on the verge of starting a discussion on social responsibility. The very notion scares me because of the enormity of any givn cause in our today's societies and the depth to which one must go to either be involved on a large scale or remain silent as I have been. I cannot condone nor can I condem the activists who seem bent on finding "their cause" to fight for. My persian friends tend to want to talk about being effective in changing the country's fanatic Islamic regime and its multiple human rights violations, while I tend to gravitate toward social responsibility through personal resposibility in the form of being a harmoious man with all facets of life around me at any given time. It can get pretty messy when one does not have a peaceful attitude towards the world at large. I am an activist for God's perfect plan for the whole world as it were, and content to strengthen that on a daily basis. Giving out good vibes as I walk through life.
I am really trying to keep my usual positive and hopeful attitude towards our humanity and mankind in general, but recent events have brought the old anger back in me which is really frustration and anxiety about Politicians and the money mongers of the world about which I can take no real action of any significance. I see hunger and destitude in the masses of this U.S. of A, the richest country on earth, I see the very weak and the elderly, the homeless and the hard working class suffer while the political will of some nuts is runnning amock! God help me to accept what I can change and that over which I have no control, and please God give me the wisdom to know the difference. It is nothing new, just different land, different time in the history of the ignorant man and the greed of the fools!
