Sanity, a personal essay

"Human race get off your knees! Let The Lion sleep no more!"

We are born into this world into a human society that is insane. Throughout the length of our childhood via the uniquely human process of vastly extended ontogenesis our brain continues its development outside the womb into early adulthood wiring itself according to environmental input in a process that allows us as human animals to fine tune our intelligence with the h...elp of elders to the exact environment into which we are born. By the time we reach an age of reason when our brain is developed enough to discern right from wrong, our brain having been steeped in insanity throughout our existence here surrounded by other humans already conditioned to the insanity, interprets the insanity as sanity.

A few of us for some reason unknown to me do not fully accept this "sanity programming" and most of us then try to point out what we perceive as insanity. Our parents, siblings, friends and other adults and authority figures around us, in our modern society particularly school teachers, inform us in no uncertain terms that we are misinterpreting reality and in fact it is not our society that is insane but ourselves who are misapprehending our reality - if we persist in our "delusions" about the demonstrable insanity all around us, the social pressure upon us is incrementally increased depended upon exact circumstances leading over a length of time to us being informed then that it is ourselves who are insane, not the world.

For those of us who are so designated "insane", this begins a period typically during late childhood to early adolescence of great personal anguish. This period of human maturation is inherently prone to a high level of personal, emotional challenge as we transition from childhood into adulthood. For those of us who, through no fault of our own, did not properly internalize the "sanity programming", this adolescent period becomes hellish leaving us feeling extremely alienated from our fellow humans and from humans society itself by the time we are young adults. Our reason continues to inform us that we are in an insane world. In fact, as our education increases and we receive more information about this human world of ours as well as increasing experiences in our personal interaction with it, our perception of the insane nature of this human world only increases exponentially as does our sense of isolation and alienation from "the others".

So when I hear David Icke say this very thing out loud in public to an enthusiastic reception, it gives me more consolation than I can articulate. I would concur whole heartedly with, "Human race get off your knees! Let The Lion sleep no more!"
