Spawn Life

An Analogy

Characters in gaming can spawn, which creates another character. You may have been playing for a few minutes before your creation joins, or you may have been playing for years. In any case, creator and creation play the same game.

This is parenting, is it not?

We have spawned our children, and we are playing the same game with them. We are just a few years deeper into the game. We are figuring out the same challenges, same levels. We are coming to varying conclusions. We are one another’s comrades. Just in life.

What if our children could see this before it’s their turn to regret?

What would the sameness realization accomplish.

What would it feel like.

What shape would families and generations be.

If the segments that make up society begin to function in unity, would the change be significant enough to preserve peace in its whole.

If we could all realize we are fighting ourselves in the mirror when we fight one another ~ if we could but see we are destroying the we. What a power we would finally harness.

Perhaps world peace is not such a far-off notion or elusive concept. Perhaps it is not conversion of belief.

Peace, it would seem, is tied entirely to equality.
