Slaved Salt, Slaved Light.

The story of slavery is quiet an interesting one, one that will never be forgotten by both the receivers and the givers. It tells the tales of men in chains, women in pain and children who could not freely dance or play in the rain.

Many were sold for things, and by things I mean objects of lesser value than human life. Some were even sold in exchange of SALT. The very salt of the earth was exchanged for salt.

They were kept in darkness, rooms with minimum LIGHT, The lights of the world were kept in darkness.

 

 Today, there is a higher form of slavery taking place, its the slavery of the mind, the inability to accept who we are and what we are capable of, the slavery of living mediocre lives, we exchange are dreams and purposes for money and make this world a tasteless place because we have failed to realize we are the salt of the earth. What happened to the preservation that salt brings, the taste it adds or how it stops the growth of bacteria in this case mediocrity, vices, corruption, the very cankers that are eating up the systems.

Today, the light of the world dwell in darkness, not ready to enlighten itself, what happened to the light making visions clearer, what happened to the light making it possible to navigate in darkness. Think about ships without the lighthouse, think about the havoc and wreck we have caused because of our inability to shine as we have been made to do.

The few slaves who made it to the masters chambers felt different, the felt they were no more slaves, they failed to understand that as long as a part of you is in slavery, you are still a slave, they failed to understand the power of unity, they failed to understand what it meant to function as a body.

A little taste of what the master takes and soon they forget, they forget their roots, truly we perish because we lack knowledge. There is a boat out there waiting, its passengers are the slaves of today, those who have rejected knowledge, those who only exist because the have weight and occupy space. You don't want to know the destination of this boat.

 Its true you matter but don't just be 'matter' from the laboratory's definition. Matter because your salt can be tasted and your light shines. You are not a slave anymore.
