A Response to “What’s Your Sexual Orientation?”
By Sonja de Vries
I’d say it’s to the left of the persimmon
Split open, my fingertips slide
into burnt-orange pulp.
Some days it’s in the grip of a hawk flying
up from the field, snake dangling from its mouth
writhing, writhing.
Could be in the river, her rising rapids
urging me to pull off the road and moments later,
my clothes on the rocks, I enter her gasping.
Or maybe
It’s just below the oak tree where March wind lifts
my shirt, tender skin exposed,
and the squirrels don’t give a damn.

YOUR BUSINESS CARD ABOVE HERE [ IF YOU CARE ] --
My
mission work is true peace building and I do this with concern and care
that my message is free of any possible conflict of interests
motivations.
My name is James Martin Driskill.
I am the owner and responsible web site and other content administrator of a peace building trust networking platform.
There
is no business model -- not even a non profit --- working under it's
model of production materials. That might change in the future,
but for now,
I must remain free of possible claims of dishonorable conducts on the web, which I am not.
There are two working principles here.
First, principle is we are free to make our world a better place by sharing our understandings of one another. UNITY
Second
principle here is honesty. These are interchangeable priorities
as they are equally of necessity in our daily lives.
When
honesty is not given it's weighty truth respect, self-centered
egotistical and narcissistic attitudes prevail as idolized ways of
being.
This is a malignant force --- eventually
--- that is a foundation of collapse by being set into building
creations --- a house of cards.
When in that
collapse --- destruction and annihilation is possible ---- but
even if it is a cut / run opportunity to hide among a secret of lies,
cheats, and
steals, that ultimately
separate us and in that separating void is left a prevailing distrust
that is hard to overcome it's collective
#SocialTrust quotient lost.
Now
we don't typically think collective trusts in this way. We think
in terms of our microcosm day to day of visibility. .What here I
speak about
is an invisible force that is an
emotional binding presence upon our community. But what can
be done? What shall we do to overturn this force?
To
understand, this is a problem here in the United States of America
extreme! And I aim to change the direction that foundational
in modern
day
way of living, we are not following our founding father's vision.
For that we have lost our way. Our society is setup on
houses of cards ---
an eventual collapse if we don't take back command of our heart.
Two
Articles From the Washingting Post relate upon these subjects
directly. Its not about the title of the article, but an inset
quotes.
“Social trust” is, well, what it sounds like: How
much do you trust your neighbors? And in turn, how trustworthy are they?
In a low-trust place such as Greece, people don’t trust their neighbors
not to cheat, which in turn makes them more likely to cheat themselves,
because why should you stay honest when everyone else is getting away
with something? This affects everything: whether people pay
their taxes, whether they take benefits they don’t really need, how easy
it is to regulate companies. And social trust also works as a
productivity booster, because you can do away with a lot of the
cumbersome monitoring that is ubiquitous in modern societies — the
supervisors who oversee low-level workers, the store clerks who keep an
eye on the customers. Every worker who is not making sure that people
don’t steal or shirk can be re-employed doing something that actually
increases output.
The
United States simply doesn’t have that level of trust. And while it
would be nice to think that we could get there if companies and
government simply stopped acting so suspicious, the fact is that they
frequently act suspicious because, well, Americans cheat more than Danes
do. (Compare, for example, the American and Danish rates
of tax evasion). Moreover, the mutual suspicion that Americans feel for
each other restricts the range of politically feasible policies.
But even if that weren’t the case, we have no easy recipe for making our society more trusting. Which leaves us where we are:
But while we all know from experience that shootings can lead to
faltering trust, the reverse appears to be true as well. My research has
found that declining trust in our institutions, our social structures
and one another leads to more lethal violence, including mass murder. As
abstract as these sentiments may seem, they predispose certain people
to kill. In fact, they explain homicide rates better than any other
factor, including unemployment, guns, drugs or a permissive justice
system.
When we lose faith in our government and political
leaders, when we lack a sense of kinship with others, when we feel we
just can’t get a fair shake, it affects the confidence with which we go
about our lives. Small disagreements, indignities and disappointments
that we might otherwise brush off may enrage us — generating hostile,
defensive and predatory emotions — and in some cases give way to
violence.
Have I gotten your attention? I hope so. Now when/if you play the video that is within the medias produced here
from the YouTube channel of @realuphuman.net --- you may wish to also check out the other videos in the collection.
They are not organized in any fashion unless they are on a playlist. They are uploaded by inspiration of what
I encounter in my online web content surfing. In that search, I am a seeker of good.
There is a priority video that is actually also named and attached to the @FBI as it relates to the TRUST quotes
above that appear at the Washington Post. Is the Washington Post a trustworthy news source of yours? It
is mine and most American's I would guess.

This
matter is of extreme important to get into new mindsets of where
society should be placing mental wellness factors in technology tools.
This one is complex but it hits to the heart of the #BlackLivesMatter #PoliceLivesMatter shootings,, the School Shootings Memeplex, and the #HumaneTech
applied change of ideal constructs that just this week --- announcement
of change is made from facebook because of the trending sharing meme #DeleteFacebook.
This under 22 playtime minutes video places all of these issues
together in a presentation that should be shared to every single human
person including students and educators., teachers, politicians, and
lawyers.

Then
finally, this is the final video in a more than hour long long form
youtube playlist. These videos collectively give a foundation new
constructs
of focus,
priorty, and foundation of old wisdom that we have lost. I hope
that you find your way to also watch in full. and share this video
playlist
to your collective circles of influsences. I would appreciate it kindly.
Thank you Ladies and Gentlemen at Split This Rock,
Sincerely,
James Martin Driskill
