It is a sad
thing to see when we encounter an individual who seems to have all sorts of
abilities and successes, and yet who can quickly be perceived as without real
concern or awareness of others. Oh, they
can repeat all the words they hear and realize what they are supposed to say,
they can even react to events appropriately upon occasion, but the awareness is
all about themselves.
It is eerie
sometimes to hear them speak of themselves in the third person, praising
themselves, and speaking their name as if the praise is coming from another
source.
It is
horrible to realize that to the hollow person, everyone else is either a
possession or a tool or both.
And it is
very, very scary when we see a truly hollow man propose their self to become
the most powerful, and therefore most responsible individual in the world; to
place their self in the position of being responsible for the safety and
well-being not only of our own country, but of much of our planet. Because no matter how much they have acquired
of the world’s goods, ultimately a hollow person has nothing to give; they are
empty.
