America is Having a Manic Episode

This separation thing has made the world a real lonely place, however I know I’m not alone when I say it seems the world has reached a new kind of crazy. Everyone is fighting over two old men supposedly representing the left and right like silly mad babies. I can’t help but think that either choice actually leads to a real working solution. It feels that coming together as people while taking self responsibility is the only way for a peaceful resolution. As I’ve observed and analyzed while I allowed myself to sway each way, I looked at when the pull in me occurs in comparison to what the politicians say. The information I found when starting in a neutral position, is that each perspective side has their own unique ammunition.

You see the left, this is what they do, they pull at your heart strings and take full advantage of the emotional parts of you. And the right, they use the mind knowing exactly what to say and how to say it to mind control you. Both sides collect their pawns and falsely promise them shiny things, while they lurk in the shadows laughing as all the people below are fighting. This discovery makes complete sense how the ones we’ve given power come together to alter our reality. Their methods of separation create confusion and extreme bi-polarity. They feed off the negative emotions that make people feel helpless and weak. Then, they seize the opportunity to implant thoughts in people telling them what to think.

If you look at this idea in a singular person while taking into account matters of the mind and the heart. When you have both, but they are not connected, then you don’t know who you authentically are. Your heart is feeling one thing or maybe nothing at all, but then your busy mind can also take control. If you have a traumatized heart and weak subconscious mind, you are vulnerable to hidden triggers that dwell deep inside. The triggers can be used against you and make you feel confused. If you can’t filter your mind with a healed healthy heart then there’s no winning and you’ll always lose. You won’t be able to feel and think in a way that is harmoniously you.

Medical practitioners would call this an imbalance of chemicals in the brain and write you a prescription in an attempt to relieve you from the mood swings and pain. However, it’s beyond me how they seem to avoid the most important part, balancing chemicals in the brain may change your behavior but it does not heal your heart. While medication may help you seem okay again, the past trauma and triggers still remain in your heart not just your subconscious brain. I feel that’s only because the pills stop your heart from feeling anything at all and helps your brain build up an emotional wall. Some may think that it is a good thing to feel nothing, but what is the point of life when you can’t feel anything? Sure there’s painful moments but they exist for a reason. Pain has to happen so you can appreciate those real good loving feelings.

So with all this being said, what does this mean for the blue and red that are cleverly separating our hearts and heads? To me it seems we lose with either choice, unless we all come together as purple people with a united voice that stands for empowering individuals and freedom of choice. It’s perhaps foolish to think we could stop them from attempting to control our minds and trigger our hearts, but what we can do is our part to heal ourselves, both mind and heart, so we are stronger together not apart.

I do things, I feel things, I think about the deeper meaning of these things too much. Now, I’m writing instead of talking about it - so I can keep my friends.
