An Act of Faith

If I saw what was done to me done to someone else, I would feel like the system owes them something for the losses.

To say the system owes me anything would be unwise, has kept me alive and allowed me clean water to drink and more.

Thus I feel like life has been both unfair and fairer then I might deserve. I like to breathe fresh air gets upsold to I deserve to breathe fresh air. I like clean water gets upsold I deserve to drink clean water.

A system that does right by people is something that can be hard fought hard to win. I think others deserve fresh air and clean water and much more. All realize those are systems that require maintenance and investment might not always be fully appreciated. Fighting for people protected, and the systems that maintain that protection can be more difficult and costly than one might like.

The system has provided many things, services and support that has allowed me to see many good days. Seeing good days in the past gets upsold to I deserve to see good days. I would like others to see good days again (for those that are not already) and I would like myself to see good days again. What I would like and what I deserve are vastly different things.

People like to add value, people are less than perfect and don’t always know how to add value. I want to amplify the correct words yet even the correct words could be correlated to the wrong things.

Fresh air and clean water are priviledges that are not available on all planets outside of Shiny Blue Marble, Earth.

If I fought for someone to do better in life seems like the correct thing to do. Treat others how I wish to be treated, help them see more good days. Ideally if everyone was doing that we would all see better days. If I fought hard for the system to pay someone through trials and hard work it might limit resources and throughput for others that might need it more. To say I will or would have ideal visibility is unwise.

Acting in good faith that fighting for better days for all will produce results is an investment in faith, faith based on limited visibility. Life can be less than clear cut, less than always simple to see who or what needs the most support. I can try to add value might get upsold to I am an ideal judge of where value needs to be added. That seems incorrect. Waiting on finding ideal decision making can reduce throughput. Throughput that might be less than ideal might beat waiting on an ideal decision that might never be made because visibility will always be limited, truth many times is up to debate.

Legalism can make it too hard to move. Being too legalistic on decision can be like hitting the pause button. Imagine two Charities, CharityA and CharityB and you are only given enough money to support one, which one do you choose. If you choose CharityA will others give to CharityB? If you choose CharityB will others give to CharityA? Imagine they are both highly valuable and have the potential to save lives. The decision matters. Pausing the decision via legalism matters as well.

If I invest in CharityA self might try to upsell it to CharityB will never be supported. If I invest in CharityB self might try to upsell it to CharityA will never be supported. Investment is more than money. Time, resources, thought, and reflection all are investments. Make a choice requires faith, and the devil will likely try to use the missed balls to never try and hit a home run again. Decisions can be made too heavy, light is useful.

How things play on the psyche matters, allowing things to play on the psyche could likely happen to anyone without enough support. Encouragement matters, appreciating the wins and help covering the missed bases factor into the sustainability and maintenance of wins. Never Say Die, There is hope! Don’t get too legalistic it is not the path to ideal throughput or immortality.

My guess is things get decided in court rooms. How humans decide things and how God with infinite visibility would decide things are likely vastly different at times. Man’s justice gets upsold to God’s justice, men decide things get upsold to men have sufficient visibility to decide things.

If I pursue a course of justice, will I have just motives, or will my pursuit be clouded by the evils that all men and women have the potential to face. Pursuing justice might not always equal sufficiently equipped with visibility to actually judge correctly. Information amps less than ideally, pursuit has potential for not all tests out, not all time lost. Time gets upsold to a given with legalism at times. Less problems amped in the first place might be a more worthwhile investment than trying to pursue justice that has potential for being subjected to strings in a fallen world.

Wrongs amp anger, anger does not make ideal decision makers. Less wrongs possible through positive paths, positive paths that are not always encouraged or sufficiently invested in. Praying for those that have wronged you is better than the alternative. Potentially more freeing.

Give and you will get, overflowing. Giving less legalism has the potential to amplify a lot of value.
