Allow me to introduce myself. I am but a single being existing on this planet. I am really no different from you. I live my life as best I can, struggle to keep my family fed, clothed and housed. My nationality is not important, because I could be anyone here on our beautiful home, mother earth. It also is quite irrelavant what government controls my land, as all governments are merely an illusion and a temporary flaw in our existance. Do I look different from you? yes. Why you may ask? because that is the beauty within nature. I breathe the same air, drink the same water and rely on the great mother earth just as the rest of you. I am human. you see me every day, looking back at you, sometimes I smile other times, angered, and other times - lately more often, saddened. Why you may ask? Look around! look at the destruction we have caused! Look at the petty wars we have waged in the name of hate and greed! In the entirety of the universe I find there is no reason for this. The stars would inevitably fall out of the sky , planets would hurl out into deep space and time would cease to exist if the universe were as chaotic as our home. So why do we do this, why do we fight each other and refuse to look past our petty differences?
No. The question does not need an answer, only for us to think of one.
You my fellow beings, are all capable of the greatest good there can be; Love. Those who feel they could never love a stranger, look to your spouse. Do you really know them as perfectly as you assume? We all love strangers in some ammount, just some are less strange to us. So why not love a stranger? What does it mean to love anyway? Love is not only what you feel for your spouse, children, mother or other family and friends. It is the driving force behind creation, advancement, intelligence, and the like. We all were born from love, into love and out of love. Hatred and fear are aquired emotions and are not a part of our souls. They are tools of manipulation implicated by governments and religious athorities used to persuade and control us into supporting their greed and selfishness.
Can you recall that moment in your life when you fist thought, "why am I doing this?" What was that answer you came to? Think hard and you will find that the answer most likely held an outside influence. Many couldanswer "because my government..." and ohers "because god said..." and even some "because he or she...". How many can actually say that their answer was "because I felt..."? Few. That is because hate, fear and greed are not of our souls. We are all like children in some ways, easily influenced by our surroundings and others. Why do we allow this to continue? Think about it if you will. I am not condemning you, rather I am saddened that you are condemning yourself by allowing yourself to be abused by those who are undeserving of your prescious time and energy.
So now, on to the next matter...
You genuinely do not know me, yet I am told that you will soon come to destroy me. Why? What have I done to you? What could a perfect stranger from a differnent part of our world possibly have done to you? How am I your enemy? In my most angered state I could never bring myself to harm you or your family. So how is it that you can do this to me? I have heard the excuses before, and that is all they are. I am not the government of the lands I live upon. I really have few hours in my day to conscern myself with what they are doing; let alone support their greedy ways.
I do not hold you as my enemy. You are simply a stranger and as long as you do no harm to me, I will do no harm to you. Why? Because as one of the simple people of this planet, I see no reason to emulate the hostilities and foolish actions of our governments. My government has labeled you a terrorist and "evil-doer", I do not. I cannot see how you cause or do any evil to me by feeding, clothing, housing and protecting your family. I do the same, does that make me an "evil doing terrorist"? no, and I would hope the goodness inside you would tell you the same.
I plead with you, as I plead with all whom buy in to the foolish and childish ideologies of our shamefully corrupt governments. Please, think for and of yourselves. You have condemned me to death based only upon the propaganda fed to you by your government. A government no different from any other, manipulative and self-serving. I say no, I will not condemn you. Rather, I will invite youinto my home. I will feed you and heal you and hope to learn more about you and in turn, hope that you will learn more about me. That is the truly universal love, and if we the majority of the beings upon this planet, choose peace and friendship and universal love over the tyrrany of politics and religion, we will ascend to the next together and remove the power from our opressors, and live peacefully.
Sincerely,
Your Brother.
