Lyle is not a “cat.” He is a lion- one descended from original lions that have ruled and reigned the earth for centuries before mankind and ‘progress’ made him a miniature model.
I love Lyle. I am very grateful for him – for he seems to exude “lion-ess” or what Plato calls ‘essence’ of lionhood despite his size.
He fits easier, too, when I go camping. And, he is less expensive to feed than an original sized lion. I grieve, however, that anyone should be made into something other than the original ‘essence’ of their being by people in labs, social programming, psychological conditioning- or outright surgery! Drugs! Drugs! And more Drugs!
Oh great! Drug Store Drive through windows! Now we can get toxic concoctions made in labs only with more chemicals – deliberately, too!
Anyhow…
Human beings aren’t supposed to be specimens in a lab. Who has the right to change a person or a lion into something other than they are?
And, yet Hollywood, Public Schools, corporate America, Drug Companies, News Media etc. are all tangled in a web of fantasy and delusion that it’s OK to do what their doing, making this world crazy, toxic, and violent.
They are watching human beings devolve into something other than their essence (which is the goal). And, profiting of it if you corporate America, or living off the ill gotten gains in some respect, by working, living, supporting the “system” and it’s continual staged drama that everything is OK, nothing here to see.
It’s like these agents of power are the apparatus running the country or influencing it in extremely powerful ways. These powers that be, demonstrate little remorse or conscience of the madness people are experiencing. Terror, hopeless, fear, animosity, and rage. Murderous rage.
And, they are OK with that. They have the power to do good with their agency and position. Enormous influence in our culture. But, they don’t.
They would have us believe this group of people, the other; or that group of relatively powerless people by comparison are to blame! It’s them! Or, him! He’s evil! Witch hunting. Scapegoating. See?
What about the powerful agents behind the scenes of our culture? Ones with more power and not just voters whose country is being destroyed?
This is what happens when we abandon God, truth. Love. And try to govern humanity from labs. “Science”.
Lyle, my lion, and I had a great time with the Almighty camping. I thought camping would be scary in the dark wilderness. And, I did face my demons there. Of my past, which was necessary to be free from this mad world.
Everything is OK now. But, I can’t say that about the world outside my window. How can we see any future except a giant crashing to the ground because of the madness and failure of these institutions that have abandoned God.
How can they have a happy ending? Unless they stop destroying the world? There can’t be anything other than reaping what they sow for those who do not repent. Ask Mercy. The Almighty freely gives.
