If you were given one day to rule the world; would you make it a fair one? If you were given one day to rule the world; would you make it an evil one? If you were given this opportunity; God might be disappointed in you. If you were given this opportunity; you might be sinning.
When you judge the fate of the Earth; you should know that this is not something that should be done lightly. This does not sound like an easy task. Sometimes the weight of the task is not felt until you are standing over it. Then the pressure of all the wrongs unbeknownst to you could break you to pieces. As a deity, a Nemesis or a Demiurge; you wouldn't be able to take that type of weight. You could only be the light that shines the light; not the one that bends the light. After all; God has created all things; not even you should be given the right to decide the life and death of the world.
The world is all we know; we can not say we know anything else. Mankind has grown to understand the world; not the world itself. We have grown in knowledge, but yet we have not grown in understanding. We can not understand what we do not allow ourselves to see. If we do not see the world broken down in front of us; we will never be able to look at the world from a higher perspective. What we give too much credit, we take from the world. We can take a life that a man thinks is a gift, and deem it a gift that costs too much.
The difference between a gift and a curse is a gift that seems a gift, but in reality is a curse. The difference between a gift that seems worthless, and a gift that is treasured is simply one that is not valued by the giver. The difference between a gift that makes us happy, and one that is too much to bear proves to be the difference in staying alive; the difference in staying in control; or in controllessness.
Though I can't say for sure; it could simply be the difference between the hearts of the giver and the receiver. To me the heart of the giver is the biggest part of one's life; to the receiver; it is just another part to deal with. It is the heart that helps decide whether or not the next breath that you take will be selfish or selfishly selfish.
Everything tells a story; sometimes the story is real and sometimes it is not. It is all find dependent on what you allow yourself to see. If you can't see the world as a collection of stories, you'll miss the point of the world. If a man tries to tell a story that is greater than a man's self; the self will always decide the story. The self will decide that a story is a gift, a gift that causes a man to free himself from a guilt that is crippling. The self will decide that a story is never a gift. The self will decide that a gift is a gift, but a gift that is not utterly treasured by the giver.
The problem with the self is that it has a will of its own, and a moral development of its own. If a man can admit to himself his own lack of moral development, and not be ashamed of it, the self will feel a sense of satisfaction knowing a person actually has a conscience. The self can appreciate a person's conscience, but the self will never respect a person's conscience. Only the self never saw the necessity of a conscience. A conscience is a necessity for anyone who loves someone else as much as one loves oneself. A conscience is a lesson that one never learns until they have been loved unconditionally.
