Society as a place for the weak, and a burden to the strong. The weak have always been the focus of societies laws. More recently, with the advent of ways to prolong the lives of the weak, the strong have become discouraged by societies slanted playing field. Then again, perhaps society was never quite even handed. Take for example the Lord Jesus Christ. he was the best carpenter in town. He was handsome, tall, good looking, and he wore a thorny crown and carried a big cross just to please the weak. He became strong because of them, but lately the burden of carrying their weight was just too much to bear. The weak have on essential flaw that dominates their fake flaws: they lie around and do nothing and complain about it all day long. The weak complain to other weak, and they coalesce and gather around each other and develop plans to become the strong. The problem with their plans in their minds is that were they to become strong, they would be subject to the burdens and responsibilities of the strong. This is what is known as society. The strong are now a group of weak, gathered around their weakness preying on the strong. The strong are perhaps too wary of strength already to pursue more strength in numbers. Perhaps there are too few of the strong to overtake the weak. The weak have a will to destroy now, and hunger for power, not fed by nourishment or care, but by callousness, anger, retribution, and that good old fashioned malaise that got them their spot as the weak. They would create a dichotomy between good and evil just to suit their ends. To make life easier to bear. However, they are unsuccessful, by nature failures, and will continue to fail even after they recognize the truth. Life is a tapestry of failures woven together and decorated with the few successes we make. My place in the chain of reality is not so dominant nor so meek that it is going to unchain the structure of it. Indeed, the weak will remain weak until they can impress upon the strong the virtue of their weakness. The strong will remain mired in failure, until they can devote themselves to the weak. In truth, the weak are no longer the weak, and the strong no longer the strong, but the new strong may have some skeletons in their closet to overcome. Perhaps their humility will come in handy. Now, the weak will tell you to stay indoors and hide from the sun, stay away from any possibility of offense, and remain hidden at all times, while the strong will shrug it off as something not within out control to decide. In the end, the weak are cowered indoor, and the strong live with the fear that their hard work is not hard enough to overcome the laziness of the weak. Office buildings are filled with the weak. They will tell you not to work too hard, to pace yourself, and then purposefully drive you made to maintain that sort of status quot. Life is a pleasure to them because it can be lived slowly and left to run idly while still maintaining life. The strong will tell you that is not enough, and there has to be some higher purpose in life, than to sit around and enjoy what nature has to give us. The weak enjoy fighting for the victory, and the strong enjoy winning for the glory. Are these two ends so different. No, they are very similar. I admit, yes, glory is a higher love of life than victory alone, but still victory is commendable. It is still a worthwhile endeavor. So, to all you weak, from the strong, go dominate us strong, defeat us even, and enjoy yourselves. It has been a long time since you provided the food that made us the strong, and the shelter that kept us from becoming weak again.
