Love People You Don’t Love
Truth was concerned. These days, loving one another was more important than ever, yet humanity was obsessed with conflict and war. Greed was happy, Lust was beyond itself and Mars, the God of War, blossomed. Only Truth saw it as a good time for a few, bad times for most. And Truth itself, under constant attack, was sad.
Truth had never been sad before. Truth being sad disrupted the universe.
Greed, Lust and Mars tried to brighten Truth’s mood. Envy and Frustration told Truth it would feel better—but this was Truth. It knew exactly how it felt.
Truth believed humanity needed dramatic change. How? Lust had its usual suggestions, as did Greed and Mars and Envy. Frustration, as always, was frustrated. Truth knew their ideas were only more of what had created the problem. Loving people you don’t love—that was a truth. If humanity could understand that, it would learn.
Truth did its best to spread the word. And the word did get out, in a human way. The main result was a flood of reality shows where everyone took their clothes off.
That was true, yes, but not the truth Truth sought.
