we have to understand that matter cannot be destroyed…
the amount of mass in a closed system must remain the same…
so we can convert matter into something else but the total
amount of mass in that closed system will remain the same…
so we can convert matter into energy and the result will leave
us the same amount of mass in our system……
the next thing is that the matter that exists in our body
has existed since the beginning of time, since the big bang…
it has been converted endless number of times from matter
into energy and back again… this has been going on since the
big bang… so any given cell in my body has existed since the big bang…
I am eternal… for the cells in my body has existed since and will
continue to exist from the beginning of time to the end of time…
and you too have existed since the beginning of time and will continue
to the end of time… as each of your cells has existed since the beginning
of time…… as there is only so much matter in the universe, it is logical to
understand that our individual cells has combined again and again and again…
in the 14 billion years of the universe existence, our individual cells have
combined into various objects, tree’s, grass, stars, planets, animals,
amoeba…… our individual cells have been friends, neighbors, lovers,
enemies and at times, piles of shit…………
we are transient, accidental collection of cells that
has been formed and reformed billions of times over the last
14 billion years and we will continue to be formed and reformed
over the upcoming years, until one day, billions of years from now,
time ends… and the process of our atoms, our cells can no longer
be exchanged from one to another…the process of matter and energy
can no longer be exchanged…………
This is why we cannot longer hold that most dangerous
of thoughts, the most dangerous idea that man has ever had…
the belief, the wrong belief that there is an US versus THEM…
we can no longer this false and phony idea that there is some
validity to the notion that there is an US and that there is a THEM…
every single aspect of modern life is full of US versus THEM…
we have sports and economics and political and social themes
full of US versus THEM…….there is no such thing as US verses THEM…
as our cells have over the billions of years been exchanged and interchanged
between each other, how can their be an US versus THEM when
the reality is that there is only US…… we are connected
to everything because we can be exchanged on a cellular level
to everything… we can eat meat and process fruits because
we are simple converting those cells into our cells and at some point
in time, our cells as matter can become animals and fruits and tree’s and…
there is no difference between any object and any other object because
we can at become or exchanged our matter into any other object…
remember matter cannot be destroyed, it can only be converted
and our cells have been converted into millions of other objects
and will continue to be converted into millions of other objects
for more billions of years…… there is not such thing as an US versus THEM…
for we are one… we simply hold different forms today… tomorrow we
will hold different forms, our matter, our cells, our atoms will be
exchanged into some other form, maybe a tree or a dog or a star?
who knows? I for one don’t know……
so in the midst of all this constant and continually exchanged
of atoms that has lasted since the beginning of time and will continue
to last until the end of time, how can we say, US versus THEM?
that US versus THEM is constantly changing…… we are creatures that
exist within time and time is one continuous, ever changing process of
cells and atoms being converted into something else…….matter and energy
cannot be destroyed, just converted……so how do you get US versus THEM in
light of the fact that matter and energy cannot be destroyed?
