The Necessity of Mercy
The Golden rule observes "that which one sows so shall they reap" is inherently a mean through which man acts as measurer and forms his/her own fate through the application of choice in which we create, maintain, and destroy phenomena through the application of limits which both form the environment around us but also ourselves.
The problem occurs in the respect that with the formation of every positive decision commons a simultaneous negative consequence in which a form of absence or void takes hold under a process of change in which nothing is ever really stable or lasting including any conceptions of the self in which these decisions take form.
All acts of goodness come with a proceeding sin, or act of seperation, in which a state of non-being occurs through every act of being. It is this inherent contradiction that observes a continual form of negation regardless of the action which takes place as being continually divides or multiplies itself under the weight of any choice one makes.
With the manifestation of some good comes a simultaneous evil, but this good is good nonetheless, as the manifestion of being through this veil of "void" or "nothingness", which constitutes the primal darkness we all wrestle with in one degree or another, is left fighting with itself for its own existence under a perpetual struggle for advantage in the face of "nothingness". The percieved change and vanity of the human condition is bound under the inherent doom of our own fates as sons and daughters of the Creator in which we are created according to our creation, maintained by what we maintain, and destroyed by our application of destruction.
What Good we commit to must inevitably pass and the evil which gives shadow to our very lives perpetually cancels itself out.
Good remains under the freedom of its own boundlessness in the face of an inevitable destruction as an infinite movement in which all things are given due course and due place in an act of Divine Mercy where the sin that gives premise to our destruction is over come by a continually present generosity through generation.
Death and destruction holds no sway in the face of this continual mercy where what exists continues to exist and death is given it's own death. The application of mercy, as the giving of full an complete freedom, in these respects is inherent within the nature of creation under a continual renewal.
