The Irony and Paradox

The Irony and the Paradox. To constantly use our eyes each day from screen to another screen. To not recognise that those in power and influence may not reveal the full story to us. To not allow for consumers to change preferences and think that if they buy a product or service once, they will keep using it in the future. To become so dependent in old age like an infant. To realise that pets are more reliable and comfortable company compared to some human beings lurking to inflict toxicity. To not use our limbs and mind in regular activity and continue to degrade them in illusionary comfort. To wake up from the propaganda disguised as entertainment. To feed ourselves in daily doses of sugar, fat, microplastics and artificiality of over processed ingredients in our daily habits. To not use our own intelligence and protect our trust when roped in by manipulators, dishonesty and selfishness. To treat only symptoms and not the root causes. To not use it can mean losing it. That the human pysche and mindset can wallow in circuitous enmeshment of problems that can never be resolved. To not build up the resilience of our future generations and continue to pamper them. That continuing to take more than give upsets the flow and rhythm in so many things - politics, religion, Nature, relationships and more. To be in denial that addiction can be in so many disguises and forms. To not recognise the so called proverbial train wreck that is likely to happen. To not see that misuse and abuse of policies and rules do happen, especially with no effective monitoring. To allow our personal time use be dictated by others. To service our private vehicle more than our health. To not acknowledge and realise the opportunity waiting in front of us. To not have the courage to change instead of embedding ourselves on the obvious wrong track. To not realise that some business sectors are essentially finance accumulation commercial mechanisms, rather than purporting to take care of their human customers. To not see that many things remain the same in human and world affairs. To be not able to personally step back and see the disillusion and distraction of contemporary society. #yongkevthoughts
