READING THE TEA LEAVES 9A

LIFE IS A GAME OF CONNECT THE DOTS, IF YOU DON'T CONNECT ALL THE DOTS OR DON'T CONNECT THEM IN THE RIGHT ORDER YOU NEVER GET THE PICTURE READING THE TEA LEAVES 9A I've been slow(er). Actually started to write on the 2d and got distracted. Not by events in my personal life, but the world around me, the neighborhood, town, state, world. Why not? I am retired, my kids are out of the house, I have few things of any import. Do you also watch the world events? Obsessively? Like I do. I watch the world. It is hard to admit that life is meaningless and without value. Yes it means a lot to you as a person, to your loved ones, maybe even your friends and colleagues, but in the "greater" scheme of things you, I or anyone else, NO! If it really did then those in power would care. They don't. Look around you, how many "important" people die, yet the world goes on, and it will just go on, till it doesn't. Sad to think that way, but that's the it is, it always has been, it always will. The Kings, presidents, philosophers, the scientists, business leaders, all die, have died, will die. What's the point of all this. Bear with me. We live in a democracy, we have freedom, we have rights, really? How? We are watching a puppet show, and we don't know who the puppeteers are, we don't even care. The puppeteers don't want us to know, they don't want us to revolt. And we are comfortable. Because we like it this way. We are told that we like/want it this way. I have used the example of " The Matrix", and I have used the example of "Inception", but we are living the reality of " Truman show". For the past 50 years, we have been programmed as predicted in "1984" but we still believe our "betters". Left, right or center we are constantly being programmed, and we willingly take our "Soma". We have confusing aims. How is it that no matter what side we are on, what direction we take, we end up at the same dead-end? Ask yourself, I need answers. I WILL WRITE MORE SOON M. N.
