“…all men are created equal…” It’s the first thing we see in our Founding Principle. Our brains seem to stop us right there, right there at that very first glance. Half the world’s population not real happy, feeling alienated with the word “men”. Then, so many more people angry, knowing they’re not treated as equal. And many others, instilled with hubris, are so mad and determined to prove it not true. Anyone remaining, so disappointed in how far we have not come. That leaves most of us paralyzed right out of the gate. We just stop at our first glance. Unable to move on to the really important part inside – the Equal, Unalienable Rights. We’re stuck on the “…all men are created equal…” part. We just can’t get beyond that first glance, to see the beauty inside.
This sentence meant to evolve mankind. To look beyond that grizzly first glance. To look beyond our own issues to see the heart of this sentence, not just the first thing that we see. To see the heart of this sentence and understand, it’s much more than what it first looks like. The first test, in this evolution of us, mankind, is the first words in our Founding Principle.
For all the people it means to Free. We must evolve to look beyond that first glance. To discover the heart and our own Freedom inside. It’s ultimate goal, for us to look beyond that first glance. For us to look to see what really matters. For us to look inside this sentence, to look inside all of Us.
