I had a conversation recently with a very dear friend. One whose mind can dance with mine.. And among many things we chewed on, one left me - and maybe both of us - with a slight hollow pit in my stomach. Where is there a safe spot under the Sun?
Where can someone live their life free of nonsense, away from the absurdities of modern politics, and insulated from the growing prejudice infecting our cultures? Where can a person be who they are, unafraid, uninhibited, free? Where can my kids grow up creating the amazing world of mutual respect and pure friendships and cooperation that it is not only possible, but also the most common sense way of life as a society? Where can we enjoy the wonders of respectful and welcoming relationships?
Where can we look and not be looked away from?
We came up short.
Not only that, but we realized that we keep coming up shorter, and shorter by the day. In a world that is on its way to its knees, there is only one such place remaining - one's own mind.
And yet, I am still looking. Not for me, but for my kids.
I do not know how everyone defines or understands corruption, but I believe that actions speak for themselves.
