Equality








The quotation "ALL MEN ARE CREATED EQUAL" seems to have many questions and thoughts connected to it... I simply cannot ignore the ever so obviousness of our equality. People in my eyes are far from being equal to each other... In many blogs as of late I have heard quiet whispers that some may feel they are not posting the lovely finds and homes and clothing ect. as some of the others may be doing... A couple of the blogs I read have decided to maybe not post again... I am rather sad and concerned about this... that they feel their life is not interesting enough to continue... One in particular ... has a lovely small home and a lovely life not filled to the brim with riches but provides lovely thoughts and little blessings and wonderful old fashion nourishment to her family... I love reading and looking at her blog but for some reason she feels it is not that interesting to others... These feelings can very easily overcome us and their are times we may have to battle some to overcome them....

Financially people are born with many advantages and some will never see due to no wrong of their own.. Just the attention given to celebrity babies clearly demonstrates we are not equal.... I remember just a couple years ago one of our celebrities had a 5000.00 birthday cake made for their child's second birthday.... Oh my gosh... in my thoughts all I could muster to say was " give the kid a cupcake" and do some good with that money....

Then there is the physical equality... we are born oh so different with traits... Some are much more capable than others...

Learning a very important lesson through the wisdom of life's journey however can make us a much better person when you can conceive that although people are not all born equal that should be TREATED equal... until proven otherwise... This can be quite challenging for some....

Inequality is a sad fixture of ones life... I recently have acquainted this thought process to blogging as I have stated above... Boasting can be truly hurtful to others and sometimes it would be better served if we present it in a softer manner.... considering the feelings and positions that others may be in... All the posh living and purchasing are wonderful for those receiving it if they even realize it.....On my roads I have certainly learned and fully understand our journeys will always have these imbalances... I am hoping to relay my thoughts and give others inspiration to hang in there and just enjoy what we can through this post and help accept the true facts that confront us... I can compare my life with the thoughts of what the person that may be living as a homeless person on the streets because of events that have taken place... My life must truly look wonderful and blessed for that person... It is rather sad when one inflates their value and it all becomes how "special" they are and not necessary living the quality of what they really do...

It is a good time for all of us to re-think paths we go on... I know some are ever so much kinder than others and create wonderful insight for many. It is a very obvious... God created people with different gifts and abilities... In a sense we are placed here on different degrees but it will be what we do with these and how faithful we were with the gifts given that will be our final reward... It is truly up to us " ourselves" to treat others equally......

Good philosophical question Marietta, because it IS true, men SHOULD be equal, but they're not... Only in death or am I sounding too gloomy here? And I only wanted to drop you a line to wish you a lovely weekend! So here goes: blessings to you, wish you well, hugs, Ira x
