The Base Element in High Places
It is very difficult listening to the pulse of a nation lying to itself, and even harder listening intelligently, with knowledge of its past, and a deep comprehension of the nation's patterns! It is difficult to listen to a fool talk and act like a fool, when you know better. So, that being said, What is a fool? A fool is a person who continually makes concerted efforts to render facts and inquiry irrelevant. When that energy is the head of a nation there are deep problems in front of the mirrors being denied, and there are tragedies on the horizon enthusiastically developing.
In the midst of swirling controversies Americans like to believe in the immediate separating from the past to dismiss the disruptive patterns and cycles that inform today's complex challenges. In common language this is the belief that our 'shit don't stink'!
Inside the behavior of Donald Trump impish glee moves around a dimmed intellect with the virtue of a python's limbic brain actively participating in world politics without a threat of maturing. It is his excuse for ineptness and intentional rudeness. Dismissed by his admirers is honesty and clarity as qualifications to participate in international diplomacy. Surely, one knows how clarity needs to align with true power to create the best change within our souls, and understands honesty's role in self-maturation processes develops into impeccability? Effective tools are developed within this training of the mind, the spirit of a soul, and the soul of a nation! Surely somebody knows this! Millions don't.
These are instrumental elements authority needs, but misguided power shuns. These lacks in a soul are deadly to all concerned with the future of a nation. These are simple teachings and hard practices. So, the lingering questions from this point, point to our current president's comedic performances on the international level that propels his country to war with more than one nation, and damages what remains of the credibility of American might with an underlining assumption about white power: victory is inevitable!
White power and its assumption of supremacy are ill-founded, supported by a philosophical illusion that needs fear and dread from its subjects, and illogical pride inspiring its adherents. If these are part of an equation that suggest its impunity is infallible his posting of inflammatory videos on Twitter followed by warning Britain's Prime Minister to mind her own business and focus on the Islamic terror cells in her country; he displayed not only profound ignorance of the game he is a leader in, but let loose the fundamental contempt he holds for women, in general and women in power!
Unable to connect the dots apparently those around Trump, better trained and more thoughtful, cannot muster the courage to use their skills to teach their president; or the White House has become filled with the toxicity of the underlining spirit of white superiority and the need to conquer others. Perhaps the White House staff is terrified of their boss? It is a good question, but an obvious one to the people, who are thinking deeply about how things actually work, and why they ideally work for the U.S. government!
You cannot talk to a mute with bad vision, nor can one sign a message to a blind man! Try as you might such communications frustrate both sides, and nothing is understood correctly. This is where we are as a nation.
Who can stand in the right place within themselves to see clearly, and who can make the next right step to move in alignment with what can transform, and change a bad direction the right way beneficial to all concerned about today, and tomorrow? The 'who' of this question is not to direct anyone towards a Messiah, but within where messiahs are conceived and developed.
What is a fool? It is a person who continually makes concerted efforts to render facts and inquiry irrelevant. What is more dangerous than a fool in high office? His, or her followers. Our responsibility as citizens is to develop into true humans changing the stories we live by; thus changing national character and policies in the short and long run. Nothing large is changed without the transformation of the formulas governing our lives.
Will this make American great again?
Wrong question.
