What would you do?

What would you do?

If you lived in the grounds of a MANOR  HOUSE but all your services like gas, electric water roads and resources depended on the manor house. 

They decided when you could travel by road 
They decided when you could have water
They decided when your electric would come on or off
They decided if you could cook with gas today

What would you do?

And if you were tired of the lack of self determination you decided to travel by road without permission from the Manor House.
Your punishment was these same roads were dismantled and road blocks instigated

What you do?

If your water resources we turned off and you couldn't have water for women children and the needy? Your schools couldn't operate, you couldn't trade with neighbours, you couldn't access medication.

What would you do?

If your gas and electric was switched off? 

Because finally, you decided something had to be done. You decided that the very children that were starving and in essence being sacrificed because of the actions of the Manor House.  This same children would be better served by sacrifying them as child bombers!!!

This in itself would go on to serve or solve very little,...but it would bring to the notice the actions of the occupants of the Manor House.

Violence can never and should never be condoned, but given the circumstances of having to live with your entire existence controlled. You have little option but to do,.....SOMETHING

When you DO something, the occupants of the Manor House come out all guns blazing,..acting in complete disproportion to the action you initiated. All you wanted was self determination.

You would have thought the occupants of the Manor House would understand. After all, they were persecuted and killed and slaughtered and any other horror you could imagine.

You would have thought they would understand.

In parts of Europe in the early 16th/17th century, these living arrangements were called FIEFDOMS! But there were some benefits then!!!!

Today 16112012, at the MANOR HOUSE, guns came out blazing and the armies and control units once again surrounded the tiny fiefdom. The occupants have been warned that if they don't desist from self determination, they would be crushed.

Violence should never be condoned by anybody or by either side. However, the cause of the fight are biblical,..the protagonist are long dead, we cannot take any of these lands beyond our current existence, but what we can do is have love for a brother man. Beyond the surface, and egos and posturing, we are EXACTLY the same. Neither shall inherit this earth,..so why kill and maim each other for it. 

Just as a throw away question,... Given what we know of the world. What would the people of the Manor House and the occupants of the Fiefdom do, if ALIENS decided it was time to level this small place where we show each other very little love. After all, when was the last time you explained yourself to a cockroach???

Would the Manor House and fiefdom bat for humanity?

What would you do?

Remember: The possibilities are endless when we dare to dream
