NORMALIZED MADNESS

Where there is no wisdom, anything can be expected. Madness is a distortion of what is thought, wanted and done, resulting in dangers or losses, whether in people, objects or animals.¿ What triggers counterproductive desires in someone, both for the subject himself and for those who are affected in some way ? The pursuit of personal gain without taking into account the impact on others or environment that breaks harmony ultimately leads to fatality.                                                                                                  The social environment is lacking in high ideals that provide a broad and clear vision of any context. Personal material interests and a basically labor based education lead to a reduced circle of horizons and relationships. In the daily whirlwind in search of the elemental, the constant repetition of disturbing elements of the multiple criminal forms, not being able to eradicate them, we accept them as inevitable evils due to our own individual impotence and that of those responsible for ensuring security. Thus thieves who have been arrested multiple times walk free. Squatters drive out the owners, and they are helpless by the laws. Banks, driven mad by profits, have long lost their decency by charging for services that does not involve any effort or expense for them. A considerable number of citizens support leaders who, instead of improving conditions, make them even worse with erratic measures and claims.And the poor service of valuable tools leading to madness such as risking your life for a photo that someone you don´t know will see. Or viral challenges that are dangerous to health and/or life that catch a lot of people where perhaps enthusiasm ends in tragedy. The list of stupidities is endless, , and the worst is the unconsciousness and lack of discernment. An evasive society that wants exciting experiences without measuring pros and cons, and once the action has begun we have lost control. Adding to that those who misappropiate possessions  or someone´s life blinded by selfish desires.

INFINITESIMAL RESIDUES

Infinitesimal residues is what remains at the end of the day. Diverse, varied occupations, and from all of this what benefit have we extracted ? Day by day we pass the test of subsistence by maintaning ourselves, with brief breaks and sustained activity. We want to preserve the physical presence but without transcendent ideals, simply going on without really knowing why, for what purpose or asking ourselves if what has been done and the intentions are adequate.                                                                                       Over the years we can meet dozens or hundred of people and how many of them have been significant ? How many have inspired us ? Most of them are insubstantial, just like the successive routines of each time.. How many events do we remember from a year ? How many are remarkable ? How many days have we been excited or excited about what we are doing in our current lives ? We want to live exciting experiences, but obligations, dependencies, concentration almost exclusive on mundane issues, together with limited knowledge focused on the work environment, keep this from happening. The day to day reduced to repetitive routines with a narrow margin of maneuver to get out of a forced circle, is simply to cover the file without knowing exactly what for and where it will all lead us.                                               Our potential can be great, but due to various factors it is reduced to the minimum expression. On all fronts possibilities remain in infinitesimal portions. What have we retained from what we studied as permanent knowledge ? From a conference considered interesting, what do we end up retaining ? From the daily diet we take advantage of the essential and the rest is eliminated. Everything remains in synthesis. Daily work, various activities, conversations, pass through a kind of filter so that what is useful in practice remains. This evidence should make us rethink what we invest our time in, the viability or not of certain efforts, what really nourishes us and what is dispensable, because if what is considered valuable is diluted to the maximum, the void of content is directly a loss.
