I would kill them... I would kill them... I would kill them... and myself*
And so the echo of my words is heard in this Weekend Experiences Community. And I slowly become a murderer of humanity and myself. Did I say it?
But I would kill them without killing them. What a strange thing to do! Uh? Because if I kill them, I can't see the change I want to see in the world. And to see the change I must be the change myself. It means that girl, me, the one who did not thrive in love, I must change her, kill her, and make her reborn.
Mahatma Gandhi said:
Be the change you want to see in the world.
And Lao Tse, the founder of Taoism, pointed out that the wise man does not teach by words, but by deeds.
With such quotes, we can begin to think about how we kill in ourselves that being who does not contribute to his or her micro-world. To make it easier for you, I propose this short film I found on YouTube a few days ago.
Each of the three stories offers a valuable lesson. Tears welled up in my eyes while I watched it. I'm sure the world would be different if there were more people like this in it. Who do you want to be?
You may have already noticed that I am answering this question of the weekend engagement that Galenkp so diligently proposes to us:
If you could make the world an amazing and beautiful place where humanity thrived in the future, but doing so means killing every person currently existing on the planet to start from scratch, would you do it and why/why not? Use your own photos.
You still have some time to participate. Have a closer look at the Weekend-Engagement topics: WEEK 223.
