Dear Friend.
I had a revelation today. It occurred to me that even though we, as a society, see beauty and strength as power I have seen that the truth is quite different. It seems to me that the true power comes from the ability to outwit or out talk another. The majority of us humans will seek to harm others when to harm one is to garner vengeance from their kin, leading to commensurate reactions.
The greatest power falls to him who can be given the choice to subjugate and refuse it. True and great power will fall on him who can reign unopposed not through fear but respect. For example, we see Putin who wouldn't admit he wishes to rule but will oust those who oppose him, we see Kim Jong-Un who would punish those who do not respect him and we see al-Assad who sees his position as destiny and will call for groups who oppose him to dissolve. Yet none of these men have true power. These men believe themselves above others but no man can achieve true power without accepting that no one is greater than anyone else.
Even in these free countries we are ruled by politicians who reign using false promises. Promises they could never keep. These are the men with the least power of all so they must give themselves as much power as they can. This so called veto that Cameron has with the European Union isn't for us, it is for him. It is to give him more power, pure and simple. He can shield it with the falsities of saying it is for the interest of Britain but all you have to do it look at the things he vetoed to see it is to stop the EU from making decisions for him.
In my opinion we give too much power to one person and that is what causes all the worlds problems.
The world is resting on a very thin wooden bridge above an active volcano.
All it will take is one wrong step.
I Remain,
The Deadman
