Cup 9: Grey Sunglasses

This Cup follows Cup 8, The Golden Rule.

 

​

What happens when someone for whom the Golden Rule is golden comes in contact with someone for whom it is grey?

 

Perhaps nothing at first, but inevitably, betrayal. Pain, shock, denial. The shutting down of feelings. 

 

This is trauma.The betrayed do not become color blind, but they do put on grey sunglasses.

 

These glasses are contagious, a chain reaction, a metastasizing cancer, affecting far more people than the genetically impaired. They are also removable.

 

How many of the incarcerated are there because of grey glasses?

 

What do we know about the DNA of those in places of power and wealth?
