Assimilation into areas
which one is entitled, arises a sense of oneness, a global body if you will,
that assumes it their right to only protect and serve their own. While this is
healthy and expected, it can lead to disregard of that which is outside of
one’s own social circle or familial unit. The very empathy which led one to the
place of comfort and identity they currently reside, can lead up to the
disintegration and depletion of the emotion and understanding that made the
unit global and not selective. Acceptance into a perspective can be detrimental
to one’s humanity. Groups can hold grudges, generational traumas, stereotypes
towards certain groups, ignorance in disciplines which lie in the hands of
others, ego, arrogance, all of which can brush off on the individual. And so, I
question, when does it become possible to accept an identity, and not grow in
animosity and harshness towards other groups? Why does it become so necessary,
almost compulsory to find that in which we possess
similarities and room for Similitude at
a point in life?
And finally, why do our hearts harden as we grow older in age?
