In the World of Contradictions, Hate is the absence of Love, Despair is the absence of Hope, Desire is the absence of Wisdom, Falsehood is the absence of Truth, Fear is the absence of Faith, Restlessness is the absence of Peace, Darkness is the absence of Light, Evil is the absence of Good.

If all of these negative issues exist, they point to a lack of traits that used to be there. They’re consequences.

So many people will ask how God can exist when there are so many tragedies and so much evil.

But isn’t it man who ignores it, allows it, facilitates it, perpetuates it, promotes it, supports it, sells it, invests in it, and creates it?

Overcome the evil that resides within you, before worrying about the evil residing in the world.

We are all created with faith, love, hope, light, goodness, and truthhood. Any one person’s deviation is a personal setback upon themselves and a setback upon the entire human collective.

When I move, you move. When you move, we move. There is no ‘collective’ without you, and me — the individual.

Does it make sense to look out into the world and concern ourselves with the injustices out there before bringing peace to the injustice within us?

Why try saving someone if you haven’t tried to save your own soul?

Humans will blame God for human tyranny while disbelieving in God for false idols.

In reality, all forms of suffering is the absence of their opposites. As creations of God, by design, we are born as positive beings radiating positive energy. We have the ability to raise ourselves and each other with just presence of heart.

With time though, we corrupt our hearts and souls via our the environments we choose, the decisions we make, and the indecision as well. We become the very things we hate in our world.

We were created to overcome our carnal desires and our physical attachments to transcend the world of material gain that brings out so much evil in the human race.

So take a deep breath, stop worrying so much about the world ending, and start worrying about saving your our own. Only then can you save us.
