I WAS NOT INDOCTRINATED

 I was not indoctrinated.  I knew nothing at birth and I learned nothing.  I did what I did, and life did what it did, and I accepted that.  I did my best to survive.

As I got older, I wondered why I was the way I was, and thought the way I thought, and did what I did.  I knew I didn’t build myself, and that I came with certain feelings, likes and dislikes, also some “knowing” that I didn’t know why I knew them, and some things I was good at, and also didn’t know why I was good at them.  There were things that made me feel bad, and things that made me feel good (not because of upbringing or training, but just being alive).

It was obvious I was built a certain way, by someone or something, but I don’t know why.  I am now seventy-six years old and I still don’t know why I am here, though some of the folks around here who have theories, philosophies or religion say they know why.

Some folks here hurt others and think nothing of it, even laugh, especially when they were in their teens, though a few stopped doing that as they got older.  It seems like morals are inborn.  I know folks that would rather die than lie, cheat, steal, deceive or hurt someone.

So why did something or someone make HUMANS?  Probably for the same reasons humans make kids, and things.  It makes them happy.  They get entertained.  Humans do things for their pleasure just like creation does things for its pleasure.  PERHAPS life has a path for its creations to eventually enjoy the same pleasures LIFE enjoys (after their creations have gone through what life had to go through).  SEEMS REASONABLE.
