How Do You See the Inadequacies of Reality?
Question by ribcarbean: How do you see the inadequacies of reality?
Let’s suppose life isn’t fair.
You’re on a construction site and you see something that saved people’s lives. But nobody knew you averted an accident that didn’t happen because you prevented it. Your boss gives you a hard time and so do your co-workers.
Or somebody adopts a kid who later on develops drug addiction. And they mortgage their house to pay for treatment. Their financial solidarity is uprooted and they lose respectability or even friendships. I heard of a woman and her family that mortgaged their house. I can only guess what happens next. Source: newspaper.
Some young lady phones into Dr Laura or Joy Browne and says they want to pay for their dog’s surgery. The radio person says just put the dog down.
You let immigrants into the country, and it is true we do let them in because we vote for our government, and they use all the social services, join the boy scouts, but don’t join the army, and then they become doctors and lawyers while the people that were fair to them, the teachers, nurses, businesses, restaurants, are in a lower socio-economic class. They had no opportunity or slim and little in their former country, but now they squeeze and seize the opportunity now. Who can blame them. Loopholes are meant to be exploited because you can’t confound somebody to go against themselves. But morally it seems unfair.
You bag your dog’s dog poop off people’s yard but some jerk doesn’t do the same for your yard. The measure of this jerk doesn’t measure to the yard stick. Time to beat the person with a yard stick.
But God says to forgive and to do right. Only what if there is no God? Only who’s to know? Who’s the wiser to your misdeeds or who appreciates your good deeds? Are values any good if it’s in your head? Because it’s only in your head, LOL. When you die no one is going to read your biography no matter how famous you are. They’ll only read it if they can fulfill their lives and satisfy their lives. We’ve been a nation of consumers.
Last one, how is it fair that workers in third world work all day, grown people, so that little kids in first world can have overpriced sneaker shoes.

Dream Theater – 06 Beyond This Life – Track # 6: Beyond This Life Scene Four Beyond This Life “We learn the newspaper account of what happened in 1928. The story is that an anonymous witness heard a horrifying sound and upon reaching the scene of the sound discovered a woman who’d been shot dead, and the shooter standing over her. The witness tried to help, but the man shot himself next. The newspaper account talks of a sad close to a broken love affair. This indicates that the victim and the murderer are identified as previous or maybe even current lovers. The paper goes on to explain that Victoria and her lover had recently broken up over his decadent lifestyle; it’s later suggested that gambling and/or drug addiction might be of significance. Julian later drops a liquor bottle in scene 9, so it’s possible his habit was drinking. It’s also indicated that Victoria would have taken him back if he’d straighten up his lifestyle. The article speculates that the murder may have been premeditated. Next we read an account of the physical evidence at the scene. There is evidence of a ‘violent struggle’ and a switchblade is found. The switchblade causes some confusion, because the victim is a young girl and typically you wouldn’t expect a young girl in 1928 to be carrying a switchblade, unless she was anticipating a need to defend herself. Also found, in the killer’s pocket, is a written note. It clearly reads that Victoria’s lover would rather take his own life than live without Victoria, but it mentions nothing of …
