Almost at the Finish line.

 The year is hurtling closer to the Finish line. For some it’s not soon enough, for me, I’m easy. Let time take its course. What’s the rush anyway? 

We are never satisfied. As the year comes to a close, I’ve been reflecting on how much we have, as one sees a lot around us that is cause for concern. There is so much injustice, and what really sucks is that the lower income group bears the brunt of the fallout from the failures of the establishment. 

The establishment. Such a farce sometimes, it knows it stands and it’s aware of its power. That is, in my opinion the real problem. Takes away from anything good they may be required todo, knowing they get away with not doing it, if they don’t want to.

The other thing is, that what the Establishment establishes through rules and laws, over time becomes the culture of a place. It is so vastly different all over the world, with rising disparities in the west. Compared to Europe, we in the USA, are experiencing a sort of cultural anarchy, at the core of which is the worst kind of divisiveness that I have seen and encountered in my almost 26 years here. The real tragedy is that in the past for years, the disparities have grown wider and the awareness has become evident in people much younger, that one would expect to fully comprehend the affects of their actions.

It’s only a grass roots level that can close this chasm of divisions. That effort has to begin at home, in our streets and at the level of the individual. I think that’s a good New Years resolution to start off the new year with. For that understanding, I am thankful.
