The War of Egos

Of the past 3,400 years, humans have been entirely at peace for just 268 years, or only 8 percent of recorded history. At least 108 million people were killed in wars in the twentieth century. It is estimated that up to 1 billion people have been killed in wars throughout all of human history.

It has been said; Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, expecting a different result. In every argument, in every conflict, each side believes they are righteous. Outside of the agendas, egos, and fear involved, it appears that all sides are right, and all parties are wrong. If every side is right and every side wrong, why do we continue doing the same thing over and over again, expecting a different result? From the first killing, in war or not, someone, some nation has believed that they would extinguish evil. Still today, though, evil lives. If we all are so adept at seeing evil, why is it, in all the wars, in every killing, that we have not defeated evil?
There is but one way to abolish evil. It is we, you and me, each of us, who must come to see, accept and confront the darkness within, for, in all of human history, we have not been able to defeat evil somewhere out there.
Only in ourselves, can we step from the darkness of sin into the beautiful images of God that we are. If we are willing to look at ourselves and the evil we do, we can then move beyond. We can, then, return to our innocence.
When we judge others, evil lives. When we condemn another, immorality lives. When we imprison and kill instead of helping souls, darkness perpetuates through us.
Our societies, our countries, and our world is a reflection of us. It is time we look at our darkness and shed it, by changing us. To do anything less is to be the problem, not the soul-lution. Fear and ego have no home in soul. Let Go.
