Blogs > Within and Inside

This blog is one about symbiosis. Its purpose is to help those out there going through hard times to find solace within. Through the act of questioning our society’s issues and dilemmas, as well as comparing large scale problems to personal ones, we can find a better understanding as who we truly are and how we truly operate. Once we have a firm understanding to this inner dimension our problems will seem less problematic.   This is, perhaps, the grandest of all goals.

Blindly Behind

How can a human being, born from a mother, raised as a child, commit atrocities like murder and genocide? How? We all feel love to some degree. If a being did not experience love, that individual would not know the opposite. As stated before, opposites create each other, feed each other, and depend on each other. So, how, in so many counties around the world, can mass groups of peoples, virtually entire populations, murder an entire race or nation? How can men join together and take a stand for murder? Is it because they were born evil? Sure, men like Hitler are devious to their bones. However, Hitler only served a fraction of the horrors that were committed. It was his followers that did the damage. Were they all pure evil? Were they all born to do devilish deeds? What if this was not the case? What if the reason for these heinous acts was blind submission?

If this is the case I ask you: Is there an instance or situation in your life where you follow without question? Also, what are the effects of this behavior?
