I'm back and have Plenty to say!

After pondering it for a long time, I've come to the conclusion that nobody can give you freedom. By human nature we are programmed to push around one another to obtain our ends. The strongest are to survive, and the weak are to perish from the gene pool.
From there we have a very stark fork in the road. We either admit that we are animals at heart and hurt one another on a daily bases, or we attempt to trump our own nature, and do what is right for everyone. Whether or not the latter is possible has been a debate going on for centuries.
The first thing we need to do is to understand that we are all stuck on this rock together. Not only are we different, but we are destined to be different, see differently, feel differently, and see differently. It is no surprise that we do not always see eye to eye, because the truth is we are all different animals.
People disagree with you because they are different than you. Their perspective, the way they see the world, is different. If you saw the world differently than you do, than wouldn't you change your opinions on some things? We are all just doing the best we can to judge things with the information we have available.
Someone who has never had vast amounts of wealth will look at it as an absurdity, because in their experience they have never needed that amount of wealth to live life. This is a valid point. Someone who has always had wealth would not understand why someone would live without it, after all how could they. Imagining something you have never experienced is scarcely accurate, and ill advised. The fact is that we are dynamic beings, and regardless of our living conditions we always find a way to be troubled.
Some people don’t know how it feels to fire a weapon, because they never have. That is 100% fine. The problem comes in when those people start deciding how guns are to be fired. This does not work well because they don’t really have any real world knowledge to back up their beliefs.
The same is going for our Government right now, many people that are making decisions on the Economy, and Health Care do not have a well rounded perspective. How is one to help a poor person if they themselves have never been poor? Many Congressmen have never had to pull themselves up by their own bootstraps.
Lots of people never use drugs until they get sick. Once pain controls your life you understand why people do drugs. To the person that does the drug, the drugs itself is a lesser evil compared to the pain. There are millions of reasons someone’s life can be so painful they need to distort it to live it. As chilling as it is, it is a reality for many people on this planet. Someone who hasn’t used drugs, many times will have never had a need to, therefore they are unable to understand the situation.
Remember next time you wonder what is wrong with someone else, that you aren’t in their shoes, and you probably wouldn’t want to be. The main thing we have to do to avoid conflict is to not carve policies around our own personal experiences, and instead upon what makes sense. If someone has the desire to do something, as long as it doesn’t infringe on another’s rights, they should be left alone. The people like a government that works around them, not through them.
