America......

....yesterday I went to watch Avatar.....well worth the effort...especially watching it in 3D.....

...and this morning woke up with this thought on my mind.....

...probably if Hollywood tried to do a movie of some sorts relating to true stories of a parallel nature.....the movie would have fallen flat....but creating a sci fi imaginary dreamland did the job.....

...but the underlying situations are so real it is not true....

...on one hand the arrogance of Power....of those whose creed is Might is Right.....on the other.....the consciousness that sees beyond the greed......that takes time to understand the magic that is the world we live in....and the breathe of freedom and life it emits.....

...and in my mind....and from what I have experienced here in the various threads that have over the months discussed the USA....it is the two facets that make up this unique and incredible nation....

...there is one side of the America we know that abounds in arrogance.....an arrogance that imposed itself and caused havoc to innumerable cultures starting from the Native Americans in mid/late 19th century.....to innumerable South American nations and others around the globe in the 20th.....

...then there is the other side to America....the one that has given humanity the greatest achievements in scientific, medical, artistic, ecological and humanitarian fields........the one that has shown it's presence in the recent tragedy that hit Haiti....

...two sides that live side by side like a Jekyll and Hyde.....

...it is these facets that make America......our hope is that like the story depicted in Avatar.....humanity overcomes the greed....and hope of a brighter future becomes reality.....

...and if there is anybody who can do this....to stop the madness, the greed and the destruction......it is only America that can.
