This dog eat dog mantra of the survival of the fittest republicans is so antiquated and decrepit. It harkens back to a time when our human evolution was still scrounging around to escape constant danger. We are not those early humans of our beginning. The only real dangers we face now are from the politics of republicans which demean and turn us against one another. Our civilization has advanced through the enlightenment period and then through the industrial revolution to where we are now in the golden age of technology and innovation. There is no more scrounging around to survive except where republicans have taken from us to make us less than what we are.
When it is all said and done the fact of republican ideology from this time will show that we humans have a ways to go before we can really call ourselves civilized. There are those republicans who find that our earlier animal like nature best fits their idea to manipulate and grift. So they use it not as a logical argument for our behaviors and natures but as a tool so that they can take more for themselves. Because republicans know that we humans, generally, are still too afraid of the unknown to let go of our prejudices' and biases. The many weak willed and minded among us find that undermining education and knowledge is easier for them than the satisfying work to advance both. It is a shame on those humans that are not bold enough to carry their own weight without using others as crutches when it suits them.
I know this much though, my mind is never more healthy and invigorated than when it is in the service of goodness. My whole demeanor changes and despite the smile on my face being located on my head, the smile is all over me. The thing about goodness is it doesn't need to be a religiously dogmatic ideal. Goodness comes from within us and needs no name other than itself to be understood and enjoyed. When I practice goodness I never know what form it will take. Which is another happy occurrence for me. I don't plan to be good I just do good when it is opportune for it. Living a good life is just exactly that, not some adherence to rules and regulations, but being there and exemplifying goodness in all its forms without an ulterior motive.
