The More We See, The Less We Saw

It's funny how we didn't know what color we are until someone told us

It's funny how we don't know what religion we are until someone teaches us

It's even funnier how we are judged for something we come with and something we are taught, mostly before we had the choice to choose

I amaze at how we take those two things and turn them into reasons as to why:

Why that person doesn't deserve this or that

Why that person isn't worth talking to, sharing with, or getting to know

working with or understanding

I amaze at why we think so:

We don't know

It is fear of change, of life, of what could be different

It is wanting to be part of a group that is better than, deserves more, gets more public accommodations

It is fear of not being accepted and going along with the us, not them bunch

If none of us could see we would only be voices and brains

Thoughts and intellect

Work and sharing

No boundaries

Yet because we can see, we let out eyes take on the information that comes to all of us

And skew it

And use that extra bit of information to take away from us

To divide us

And distract us from paying attention to what really needs us

Like our resources

Our accommodations in life, like hospitals, schools, library's, foods, medicines and greater care of our Earth

Instead, because we can see, we have taken our energy's into sidetracks that only matter to ego

We let ego rule

And now we are basically a fear based society

Who is pressured in time, money and family

All that because we have eyes

All because we can see
