Contemplation of Self

How may we unshackle our consciousness from bondage to our deep rooted narrowness? Quote by _Unseeking Seeker _____________________________
contemplation ... and questions that I muse of things experienced and I unshackle what I have witnessed in deep reveries that make me ponder conditioning ... makes some people warped, brainwashed and programed and after years they become just jaundiced their thinking biased, distorted and so bitter prejudice ... is out of control all over the world I think sexism, ageism and racism are preconception mindsets disgusting intolerance ... of people and a narrow mind thinking head-set only creates barriers in your own life restricting you from experiences bias ... to peoples right of religion is unsettling my viewpoint is everyone has the right to follow the God that they believe in rooted ... beliefs are in most people established and deep like mine that has been by now entrenched from childhood- and it is now firm and fixed skill .. in social interactions taught to young children by parents gracious, accepting and kind teach the know-how in navigating life wealth ... for some is an obsession to obtain more cash more luxury, more worldly possessions not me- I need little to be happy bondage ... seeing the world with jaundiced disapproving eyes keeps you chained and enslaved to servitude just let go of all discrimination consciousness ... awareness is the key to enjoying this life and all those you meet on this short journey I have found my tranquility and peace intellectual ... people hopefully have overcome prejudice and have the understanding to accept but, I think it does not take an Einstein response ... well, for me this is simple and not a reflux or a retort but an intelligent reply to a question politely said
"and this is my contemplation and pondering on what I have witnessed in my short life thus far " Quote- by Poet
