Poverty is the Sin and Failure of All who aren’t Poor. 

Wrote this first and foremost as a note to self as much as to anyone else. Its easy to forget our responsibilities. It’s easy to play the victim card, it’s easy to live carefree when you have everything. It’s easy to be distracted, to be occupied all the time. It’s easy to forget humanity. It’s easy to cast judgement or use religious or past life karma nonsense as the answer to someone’s suffering. Who is anyone to cast judgement upon another?

We forget the interconnectedness of human experience. We give labels and compartmentalize our observed world. Come to believe this is the highest form of foolishness and willful ignorance. Can’t partake once you understand, see or seek. Crushing a human soul, letting one suffer while we ignore and carry on is inhuman. It tears-up some of us. This is not a reminder, this a cry from the soul of its own lapses. An intermittent burst of intolerance to the suffering we create, tolerate, ignore and penalize. Sickens the soul, rots the heart. Inhumanity is not out there its within. Seek humanity before divinity.
