NEW.
Improved.
Re-Dedicated.
Re-Suscitated
Creatures of wild imagination.
Creatures with Awe-inspiring Dreams.
This is who we are.
Our imagination is both our advantage and our liability. It is the powerful force within us which has the ability to fuel an incomprehensible human drive toward extremes. Our imagination pushed us to place one of us on the MOON. Let's just stop and consider that for a moment.
If we ever...........EVER..........needed to proof to ourselves of what we are capable of: what our imagination has the power to drive us towards, that incredible piece of mankind's history should serve to make sure we NEVER FORGET.
WE CAN DO IT.....................................TOGETHER.
The American people were the tribe who made the finish, but it was the WORLD which pushed them up on their competitive shoulders to inspire them to push harder and faster to the point where they got it done. Without the spirit of competition from the rest of the world, it wouldn't have happened.
Knowing this, each and every one of us can take our own share of pride in knowing that it wasn't exclusively an American who landed on the Moon, it was a member of the Human Race.
It is from this perspective that we must all begin to think. The world is no longer such a big big place. I myself, as most of you, have undreamed of superpowers. I can send a message around the world with a single click of a button from my little electronic device. A device born of the labors of thousands of human beings living in places all over this world. The debt of my gratitude can not seemingly ever be repaid to the people working late in their cubicle sorting out chip designs or to the people putting in that extra hour late at night past quitting time who fabricated my particular little device. The seemingly unconscious and unacknowledged effort of humanity to pull off these miracles is so common as to be something that we all just expect, anymore.
But we cannot think that way any longer. Mother Earth is paying a heavy toll for our dreams, and it's time that we include her needs in our process. Many human beings are also paying the price for the synthesis of what we take for granted. Their health and welfare also, need to become something that is considered. In short, we can no longer look upon the single lives of the spirits who drive our world with an attitude of irreverence, neglect, or lack of respect. To do so, would be to drive a bulldozer at full speed into one of the pillars which is the foundation upon what our world is created upon.
If we are to actually BE, what we purport to BE, we must instead learn to fashion our business models in such a way as to have RESPECT for life. ALL life. We have progressed as far as we can feasibly go using the mentality of “do unto others and split”. The evidence of the cancer to our world from this unconsciously adopted philosophy is poisoning our water, raining debris from the sky and changing the daily weather into some sort of psychotic musical chairs game.
The time of nationalism and divisive activity is past. We simply cannot afford to continue as we have or the consequences (as the current previews of coming attractions in economy,weather, human happiness and welfare) indicate.
The scary news of it is: THE TIME IS NOW.
The wonderful aspect of it is: WE ARE UP TO THE TASK. WE CAN DO THIS. WE HAVE THE IMAGINATION, THE CREATIVITY, THE RESOURCES, AND KNOWLEDGE OF HOW TO REINVENT OURSELVES.
The REAL question is: DO WE HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO PULL OUR HEAD FROM THE POWER OF DENIAL AND ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING BEFORE OUR ABILITY TO ACT IS RENDERED MOOT?
Millions suffer from depression. Sickness. Hopelessness. Instead of working on curing the symptoms for these ailments we need to be working on their CAUSES.
Don't be afraid. Fear breeds fear which breeds fear which breeds sadness helplessness and a world I personally don't want to live in.
Don't be mean. You know right from wrong. Stop turning away from that which you know is wrong.
Be part of the solution. Reach out and help another human being. They belong to you. They are your family. We all want the same things.
Everyone here is valuable. Sometimes that perceived value is difficult to see. Just because it isn't obvious, doesn't make not true. Seeing ISN'T always believing. It SURE as hell doesn't make it FACT. (Quantum physics anyone? Alright then)
What IS real, is that I am a member of this giant thing. This LIFE-FORCE on this planet. The more I learn, the more I realize I cannot divide myself FROM IT in nearly any way. If I cannot divide myself FROM it, then all of it, (even the stuff I don't like) winds up being a part of myself.
I'll say that again. EVERYTHING OUT THERE IS PART OF MYSELF.
Why would I attempt to hurt, destroy, hobble, infect, damage, subvert, poison, manipulate, or cause mental or physical harm...................to myself?
I can not love myself ABOVE others. I can only Love myself. (There ARE no .....”others”)
Therefore, I love you. Please take good care of me.
I'm WORTH it.
