the importance of knowing how much poverty hurts people

Ih find it amazing that when we, the people, the press, the US, Mexico, whomever, discuss the problem of narco violence, we never talk about the abusive backgroudns of poverty from which many of these narcos come. Actually, I would like to indicate that in various articles here in Mexico, there is a reference to the fact that the real common denominator to this problem is poverty.
I believe that many people would not go into this mafia- like world if there were other means to gain any kind of living. If Mexico were only to raise the standard a little bit, things might be different! An excellent article indicated that a woman might not support the mafia- like narco people if she could just earn like 4 dollars more a day!!! Buut the US govenrmetn chooses to spend millions on military efforts. Come on. We allknow ht eproblem is poverty, not narco criminals who jsut need to be stopped once. I mean, and then the enxt time? Adnthe next user willg et another peoson to buy from adnthe chain never stops? Who is both the Us and Mexican governemtn kidding wiht this way of handling the problem? It only creates fear among everyoen to see soldiers roaming around allthe tiem now. It sucks to be honest. The difference between living and just surviving. There are so so many problems here in Mexico, However, with the right attitude, and the willingness, they can be addressed. I am sure the people are willing. And perhaps if the narcos have achieved anything, it is to exacerbate a problem that people have been aware of here for years. Decades. Forever.
But like so many things, we as people don´t do anything about a problem until a crisis occurs. Then it is is like, WEll, we HAVE to come up with some solution. And magically, as human beings, we do come up with solutions. WE have to find a solution to the poverty here.
I will write diligently until I get out all of the observations I have made. And I hope people read my blog. I hope people care to open their minds. This is the only solution. Remaining as we are has only led to this atrophy, this horrible infectious nauseating poverty that makes people animals. It makes me writhe in pain as a fellow human being that shares this planet with them!! I cannot believe sometimes some of the things I see people tolerate here! It would break your hearts.! But I will write about it. I will write until I cannot write any more and then I will write some more because we simply have to realize where these problems are coming from. These people are not caring to treat others as humans, because their society tolerates the mistreatment of many many of their citizens. The soluton is not on the shoulders of these narcos, but on us, on the people who haven´t had so much poverty we can´t even think, we can only react. So let us be mature, let us be calculating, let us be reasonable.

women

i think the major thing to understanding anything is history. I mean, what is the first thing a detective does in a crime scene? He or she finds out where people were, when they came and left, what they were doing. Then the detective will even go into motives. Such as,who were they dating, why were they not working, what was their childhood background. All of this is to ascertain truth. To find justice. In a world however where we believe justice is somethign we have to hold off on, we are fearful of leaernign from other toomuch of their lives. Nonetheless, in these days, in these times of the world shringking adn so much shirn gbetween cultures adn antions, we have to grow up out of htis frame of thought.
So i guess I feel that it is love and care to actually find out all things about people. When we are talking about men and women, or about people in their religon, we must find out not only their beliefs, because most beliefs weren`t given with no context!!! The Bible didn`t just come out of nothing. Niether did the Koran. We don`t know exactly how books such as Genesis in the Old Testament were written or if it is clear . We do know however the exact year in which the Koran was started to be revealed and then continued to be revealed in a real time, play- by-play manner over a period of 23 years. The calendar, also, does not take heed to the zero placed by christ`s death , but rather by a yet another 0 given by God to muslims when the Hijrah, or migration of believers from mecca , (a place of persecution of believers in God, as prophetized by Mohammed p.b.u.h) to Medinah, where they were able to start a new form of state based upon Godly laws on Earth.
During this time civilization as we know it TODAY, was being laid in its foudations. Actually perhaps more in the times of hte Jewish Book the Torah can we say the first civilizations.
During the time of Christ and shortly thereafter, movements came about that spurred htigns htt are still goign on today. They are based on builduing upon these original revelations, jsut as an adolescent human being builds upon its childhood foundations, However, oftentimes it doesn`look like a direct building upon until they reach a greater maturity. It can be said, when the human being goes full circle on some things, such as creaitng htier own nucleae family.This revelation was done at a time now called 0, when we go form bc to ad. That is a big deal that our sense of time in history is maniputlad so incredibly by our religious beleis. Tus , I argue that it is impossible to separate relgion from reality. We are so entrenched and we are acting like it isn`t so. Or we know it is so, but the evolution debate made the religion thing not something we can talk about. Its like putting hte mute button onthe music. Imean we know it s playing and it is actually more frustarating to no be able to jsut tlk about it. So, to conclude , in order to be good investigators, we mus ask questions. We must investiggt the time and place of our religions. We must discover the motives by knowing what peopel were doing, where were they, who did htye interat wiht. What civilization had already been built and wha t had`t, Becaus each religion had diffent contexts inwhich they grew and developed.

this is hard!

HA! OK, this is like .... hard! and don`t think pervertedly , please!! Gsoh, mexican joking has gotten to me!!!!
I enjoy writing. I believe writing is sacred. I had a diary (ies)that were stored in Volumes, yes. because that is how much I value and love to write. It was a place to reflect, and more than anything,a pause, and when I look back upon those days of so much writing , I am grateful because I realize it changed the course of my life, by giving me moments of bliss amidst the hustle and bustle.
So now here I am like may people wanting to write a blog. Why do we want to write blogs? Is it because we want to get our opinion ...out there?? Is this really the forum, the best forum? Who knows. I kind of was turned off by the idea after the initial wowness. It seemed like I was cheapening myself by making it accessible to absolutely everybody! Like , ok whoa! hold on...that is a lot of people. And it sort of made me feel that way beause it feels like this big blob of an audience..oh that is cute, "lol¨ a blob for a blog...hahahahhaha Oh and people really take the time to read these individually? How do I get it ôut there^as in, I wish the perfect audience would read it. But that is my idea of a perfect audience, and that must be not fair I am sure. Surely people whom i might not reach out to, would like my writings or find some piece of lesson from the blog essay. hmmmm
