We bite at flashy things just as a fish; allowing our minds to become fixed on everything but the truthful basics. The Basics from my view - 1. Cleanliness 2. Nutrition 3. Rest 4. relationships 5. shelter 6. observing balance 7. contribution

I am a writer and know that even with words we, as the beings we are, are always extending outward by nature. Attempting greater and larger expressions which rootly claim and name our existance. Just as our voice comes from our inner self. Our life force seemly must project, team and explore. This in it's self is understandable and acceptable. We are living within and by our design. Yet, I question to what degree is natural. If by design, can we assert self judgment for our erosive nature?

Looking below the surface thoughts of living we come the named condition "emotion". The inner force that responds to living. All activities which we nurture or destroy stem from this condition and understanding that it is true to us and given that we can realize it I feel is the accountablility for its use.

Therefore I return to my opening comparison, that for us to move beyond our basic requirements is fundamentally wrong to the extent that we loose site of maintaining the balance of our exsistance with the life around us.

The fish are deceived by us and we by ourselves.

We create the problem.

So how can we correct a history of self deception?

Are we unable to live responsable as a collective whole?
