Modern civilization, a double edged knife.
      Modern civilization is a double edged knife. Sick, we are looking for a cure from modern civilization. Sick from a sickness caused from the very same. We are protected from the uncivilized elements, protected or isolated? From a very young age programmed, domesticated, indoctrinated, with one word civilized. We hate and avoid everything that is not concrete, asphalt or any other material that does not represent the civilization in which we were born and raised.
      Concrete is clean, dirt is not! The water from a plastic bottle is drinkable but the water from a river is not! The water that falls on our heads in the shower is clean, rainwater is not!Â
      Most civilized individuals will argue on this and say: âDirt contains toxins, the rivers are polluted with chemicals and the rain might be acidic!â. And they would be right to say so but they never ask âhowâ and âwhyâ. How did all those toxins ended up in the soil, where do all those chemicals in the river come from and how come the rain is sometimes so acidic that it can burn and melt trees and animals? To those that led their entire life in total isolation from reality it may cause shock when they find out that most of the pollutants come from the factories that work to maintain them and their comfortable lifestyle. They will turn their heads in disbelief when they realize that they are afraid from the chemicals and diseases which are funded by their very own hard earned money, my dear civilized folk. Civilized? All of a sudden it does not feel so good to be called civilized, does it? If so then you are on the right path, it means you can see the way, all you have left now is to take the first step in that direction. Good luck.
