Grace and being graced as experiential 'truth'
Have no doubt that there will be a consequence for this repressive inequity of this grace of truthful reality, as others realize that 'truth' is not an abstract but the undeniable experience.
Dedicated to:
Walang alinlangan na magkakaroon ng kinahinatnan para sa mapanupil na hindi pagkakapantay-pantay na ito ng biyaya ng makatotohanang katotohanan, dahil napagtanto ng iba na ang 'katotohanan' ay hindi isang abstract ngunit hindi maikakaila na karanasan.

Romance, the compensatory emotional opiate for the former sibling/fraternal/sororal solidarity
Romance, the compensatory emotional opiate for
the former sibling/fraternal/sororal solidarity
If one wants to talk about the substance abuse that adversely
affects communities, put ‘romance’ at the top of the list. It is
the surrogate for the missing or the lacking public bonds that
are undermined by the mores of memes and the ‘substance’ of
the sexual act that places an emotional vulnerability onto one
(or more-for the more philandering!) for the undermined communal
bonds abandoned for the ‘rewards of intimacy’ with the one. Those
rewards ARE more intense than the previous altruistic affections and
loyalties of one’s pre-hormonal relations. Those former altruistic
loyalties had established a commonality of community among the
‘br’ers’ and ‘sisthas’.
Societal demands had no use for the “one-for-all and “all-for-one”,
except as it served their institutional agendas and ends. As far back
as scripture, the exhortation (for economic expeditious reasons) for
such one-on-one cleaving, than group or gang cleaving was for the
mechanics of the economic order, than the organics of the communal
emotional order.
It’s quite interesting that the present resistance to the cultural
homogenized organizational collectivization is probably the gasping
throes of resistance by those who see the organic themes of their
cultural expressions threatened by outside forces whose ways are
not only oppressive and repressive, but alien, per se, to their more
organic and implicit rules, than the fabricated rules and roles designed
not for empathetic relationships, but indifferent transactional ends.
