Short(lexically) and sweet(southern iced tea) social deformity

Silence and humility minimizes mystery. 

We are all essentially the same. We are nobodies; but collectively, we are as we should be: perfect, dynamic, strong. Independently, we are a fallible people. It's part of the design. The atoms which compose us aren't human alone. It is requisite that there be enough of them, and other factors for them to create the imperfect flesh that we see as human. 

If we were to visualise a single person as being a single atom, it should be easy to put in perspective the importance of the billions of people that populate the world today. (Deem me crazy if you like. I assure you that's not a unique opinion.) 

It seems as if there exist some natural  intent of humanly oneness. The separation of these atoms facilitates the separation of life, as we know it--or do we know it? 

But this understanding is contrary to  what we want. I shouldn't be elaborating on the cohesion of humanity. We don't want to converse about atoms, we much rather fancy how we could atomically bomb--socially. And we appear to be somewhat at work at it. 

As an individual, I can admit that I like a good fight. Sometimes I might prefer to watch a bout from the comfort of my couch (or bar stool. Cheers to that), and at seldom times I like to go a few rounds myself.  

However, my individual and minute quarrelsome nature isn't our problem. We don't spar as a whole--we war, and there are no handshakes involved. Well we handshake politically, but its bullshit. 

As I've asserted, we are nonetheless the same in our nothingness. But such a humble idea isn't soluble in some of the acidic ideals many of have in our heads. We find it necessary to sequester ourselves. We form perforations where none are needed--and those who aren't malleable are targets. 

 The nonverbal communication of the "in crowd" is almost deafening; and if we were to tune down the volume, what we would hear is infantile mockery.  We cringe at the non-elitist, the independents--independence--one of our ever so esteemed tenets of America. 

One of the most popular(and loosely used) adages is "ignorance is bliss". Most of us are ignorant of faults of our own. Some of us disguise our transgressions by illuminating the troubles of others. I find bliss in being thought ignorant; it's those times especially that people unintentionally shower me with information, saving me effort. 

What if ordinary  nobodies were required to have a Juris Doctor degree before they could judge ordinary nobodies? With proper illumination, dirt is evident on anyone, but that's not law or anything.
