Lead

Listen up, Learn. We need you. There is need for new types of leaders. Ones that can admit being lost, and will not waste time trying to salvage a problem that increases with a reluctant and continuous attitude in the ways of doing things. One that understands we now threaten our very own existence and our children's the longer we drag around a destructive and indoctrinated ideology of the way it 

should be, in the place of what could be. One that has had the realization that we have squandered our world's richness and nutritious systems of health and stability for all life in exchange for a value and way of life that is in reality unrealistic, diseased and incomparable to what we have now, or will ever have again. One that understands time is imperative to what we can do. One that thinks of all on this planet, and brings a standard of expectations to a shared existence with everything here, giving a supported inheritance to our survival, and an earned place in this circle of life that we are quickly working ourselves out of. One that can open minds and encourage imagination, our biggest hope. One who understands relationships are global even if personal. One who can see this chance of life we temporarily have, but does not take all, and leaves enough so that the next may have a chance at the same. Rather than eventually no chance at all.

Sleeping

WE ARE mONEtarily guided with my hypocrisy over flowing. My life is self indulging and I fit as well as you do in this place. If my life is meant, then yours is too, but we maintain misdirected. As if a person in 7,000,000,000 is any different from a drop of water in the sea, a single blade of grass from acres, to one grain of sand at a beach. We are part of a whole and now at a pace considered normal, we are consuming the resources that sustain us and our environment. I am sure our parents, grandparents, families, brothers, sisters, would be disappointed to know we are all taking part, if they too were not just as blind as me, and with their hands in the same pot as mine. I beg help me please. We can change the pace. We can change this planet. I know that sounds outrageous, but it’s happening regardless of whether or not you awake from not knowing, or plain just sleep walk through life. Do not be fooled. We are nothing alone. Together we make change, impact. Simple change is change no less. We are in school every day of life, but you decide to learn from it or not. Our choice for all practicality of imagination is due to the surplus of goods at our control, and the struggle to keep it that way. Our lessons and understanding stare us in the face every morning we wake, especially when you ration why others do not have what you have, and why? With our social capabilities void of dreaming a new beginning, we fight for unrealistic consumerism and call it individualism. The progress to a more advanced understanding is well beyond this form of social involvement. We must understand our patterns and realize that it is being controlled by a mass group of sleep walking people, with our hands in the pot too. The cities that have been built are an example of our fortitude to work together. Immense, we forget that the power is in our hands. It is the power that pushes buttons, and the power that pulls triggers. I am hoping we find another solution besides the two we have been sticking with over the eons, killing each other, or letting nature do it.

The Game

The Game: Exchange

If you are satisfied with this life, our culture and the way things are in the world right now…then you would have no problem if I make up a game called Exchange. Let’s say I pick you for the next contestant. You are somebody that may or may not be satisfied with the status quot or the current position they have in life, like everybody else, we all have problems. I have a coin to flip and a random selection from anybody in the world ready to trade places with you. Heads you can stay, tales you are exchanged. Are you ready to play? How do your problems feel now? If you think the world is great and in no need of improvement and everybody has the same problems, opportunities, health, wealth etc as you, then you should have no problem playing the game, because the world is fair from the position you sit in.  Anybody refusing to play the game knows the truth. We are 5-10% out of a 100% of the world. Play the game. I dare you. The point is, if you’re satisfied about what is happening on our planet then you wouldn’t mind trading places. Would you? If you think you deserve this life, you know the truth and can’t admit what we’re doing is wrong. Justifying our lives is pathetic. Without spreading the truth and teaching each other to live this lie, we will forever have people avoiding the reality of the situation and putting their hopes in false idols and subjecting others to slavery. Our minds are as far removed from the truth as the people we exploit to have these lives. It is no wonder why we can’t see the way. Though I do believe we all know the truth in our minds, it’s just time to confront ourselves with it. We are 5-10% of the world in the U.S. Play the game. I dare you. Now imagine if the game was mandated to all countries, and you don’t have a choice not to play. The only choice you have now is to flip the coin with a 50-50 chance of staying or leaving, or you may be randomly selected at any time from other countries to be exchanged because they have the option to play now too.

How fast would this world change if all were subjected to play the game from the rich to the poor...?

Overnight.

We discuss things like, what do you want to be, how long until you can get that house, when is the baby due, or that’s a nice car, how much? The sad thing is without all the exploitation of other people we wouldn’t have what we have today to discuss most of our issues. We subject people to ways of life that they know no different from. This is why the responsibilities lie on us. The sad thing is that most of us know no difference either. The materials cause all this blindness with the truth beneath it, taking our power to realize. This is why I believe the game should exist. It would keep us on the path to working together. Making everybody and their home a place they want to be. Instead of knowing the truth about starvation while we get fat, sickness while we stay healthy, they freeze to death while we stay warm, they consume dirty water and polluted food supplies, while we complain about imperfectly shaped apples and eat fast food.

Please help me,

-I am someone like you

Going on

What is the reason to the next seasons 

succession? To eat and stay alive while others die and lie to 

eyes in question? We're fooled to think we've been schooled and 

missed a real valuable lesson. As to nothing progresses without

money in our minds useless  obsession. Our beliefs turn to each 

others grief, so I dare to care in this depression. For a time will 

come when the line is crossed and our (will) against our (won't) 

solves the degeneration. 

Learning

I have gone to school to learn how to think. I now think with thoughts that make this world unexplainable.  Something went wrong. - DKM

A Life

If you think being given this life was something you deserve, what did you do to make this happen? If you were given this life and don't think you deserve it, what would you do to make it right? For most of us do not think about this chance of living. DKM

Us and Our Self

Please…, I want your mind. Don’t stop at the hopeless disappointments that lie silent in our self, our inner struggles not public. The tests and tides inside that we don’t want to take and face, or the goals in this life that we are afraid to accomplish, and push ourselves to, and on through, lie in the fact that if we let our hopeless disappointments and failed attempts get the BEST of us, then the WORST of us is all that we will ever have.

Help, Help us, Help our self.

Our Normalness

We have been born into an evolving civilization. Our civilization is on a planet we call Earth, the only earth thus far. We live in ways that our species has come to think as normal. Especially to the ones who never thought to ask how others live outside of their group. Trapped in our minds with current convenience, we are in a world becoming more tech/social in areas while other parts of our world struggle to have a time to be social. This is only part of our ongoing cycle, not knowing what to do, other than what we were taught, and before most understand our ways are repeated over and over, creating a destructive way for many, and a controlling profit for few. Most succumb to the trauma and stress created from routine normality and day to day living. These lifestyles have emerged from being told our ways are more convenient. To what cost, can we even imagine? We then reflect and deserve the right that plagues our selfish centered lives, to complain, waste, and treat ourselves and others in (somehow) socially acceptable but unacceptable ways. Most, but not all lives are filled with the misfortune of this flawed life-style, centered on ourselves, immediate satisfaction, not our future, causing blind selfishness and a competition for financial freedom, this being a must in most of our eyes before we can help. Our time becomes a trap and an excuse before we can address or accept the real issues at hand. We grow tired and beat, before we can sustain a must need change. We have current problems from past issues that have never been addressed responsibly from our leader’s ongoing mistakes. Alarmingly our children know better in their minds, until they too become lost in this grown-up confusion. Decisions are now financial problems, and we wait for these leaders to figure them out, being convinced our budget is what makes decisions for us, and not our will to live and love.

If I could share

If I could share one thing, that would be everything. Oh how lucky I am to have. If I could be someone, I would be everyone. Oh how lucky I am to be. If I could have one wish , I would wish for the courage to stand together. We each will have our chances to be, and do. I fail too, but for now, there is tomorrow. I will see you out there, and you will see others. We will need a vision for our world soon. We will need each other.

We should start to think about our future

Our scientific powers have outrun our spiritual powers. We have guided missiles and misguided men.MLKjr.

Thoughts for us

It may seem more important the things we individually need, but the real importance is in the things that we all need.

A needed purchase

Do our lifestyles accommodate our consumer products, or do the consumer products accommodate our lifestyles? Technologies are advancing, yet certain ones aren’t. We understand motive, at the very least, the incentive, after seeing that some of these discoveries are held back for the way some things are in place now. Who should control that? There is time when progress for our civilization is going to be needed, and not for profit, but for our civilizations advancement in facing survival. These new products and new ways will never be seen in our current standard of practice, not until some profit can be made by a business, and that profit being more advantageous than the last product of influence provided. These ways need to be addressed alarmingly. When our ways start to revolve around these specific products, then life itself begins to revolve around these products being produced. Even when we escape we are using these products provided to do so. In demand, very few no longer provide the make shift or craftsmen abilities for ourselves. The life lived now is dependent and unobtainable without a paid or exploited group effort from people making these things. Even the homeless that have no means of money live through these products. The fact is we think we need these products to live, which some (most) may in fact need, has made our lifestyle dependent on the people making available and providing these products. We are not as free as we think, unless we can free ourselves from these products. This cannot happen all at once. All involved we chip into what we think needs to be done, for our way of life, whether these ways of life are now being controlled in our best interest or not we need to start realizing the direction. Does it look like we have our best interest in mind?   

An Unknowing Push to Live Blindly

We must progress, and not create a need to consume. Which is the real issue; it drives our fabricated success, the value of manufactured resources that are un-sustainably being placed in our hands. Greed is ruling our lives, and life is wasted chasing unreal dreams that have to be bought and sold. Sadly, if the funds are there it’s enough to become paralyzed by the distractions. We’ve become so off path our visions have become twisted by financial freedom. Even our society's most worthy people, in positions of saving lives, are subject to this denial of individual impact. A doctor, a fire fighter, a police officer, governmental employees, teachers, judges, lawyers, moms and dads,...us, all of us are off setting efforts of helping in this world by spewing these toxins from our own cars, chemically grown foods we buy, store bought plastics, cleaning supplies, along with dumping all of our life’s trash into landfills, that will end up poisoning and giving sickness to hundreds if not thousands more, consequently damaging the eco-system that supports us, our health and our world. We have made it a point to live our lives this way. We are all part. Our education has lost its alarming importance and needs to be improved, yet we cut our teachers jobs and the curriculum that could improve this situation. Why? Our kids need to be loved and cared for, yet we ignore their need for a better way of life and upbringing. Why? Our population never seems to be under control or in line with our resources. Why? Our food is of the utmost value for us to survive, yet we continue to poison the dirt we grow it in. If the condition of the world we are now in, is a result from the way we continue to live, can we then agree something has to be done?

Our Vision

Listening to voices of experience, watching the demonstrations made for example, reading the words of people with great anticipation for our future outcome, the more convinced I am we are all part of these visions of warning and interpretation of what will come. My mind is forced to put down the fight of unacceptable human behavior and reason for how we live. There are undeniable teachers that express humanity and compassion for our existence. What should stop, what should start, what will we continue to do? I wonder where I fit in. Do the people around me know that they too are part? Do they know where they fit in? Is it true that many have followed the few and continue? I am led by the men and women of history that knew it took only one person to show or give all who would listen a message of hope, a new understanding of the world, this being Science or Religion, and this would change lives forever.War/Disease/Famine/Natural Disaster. The people that realized it was about knowledge and personal example led strong enough to root this feeling in men surrounded by times of great desperation, suffering, and starvation. There were also the others that led for greed and profit, against all who opposed and even the peaceful ones who didn’t, to ignore the complicating social challenges being faced, these ways too were rooted in men. Who are these people that have given us warning from experience and words of truth that give courage for accepting what must be done, against popular belief, common exception, and most likely not being able to succeed, even in the face of death… or the others that give us impression to risk it all at the expense of others, themselves, family, friends, relationships, and anything else that can benefit them in the moment, regardless of life or support given. We must become aware of whom we lead or follow, and the mass most definitely will, but in which way; a sheer terror of individual struggle to live, or a progressive unification for a common need of survival?

Some we need to listen to

It might be a familiar progression, transpiring on many worlds- a planet, newly formed, placidly revolves around it's star; life slowly forms; a kaleidoscope procession of creatures evolves; intelligence then emerges which, at least up to a point, confers enormous survival value; and then technology is invented. It dawns on them that there are such things as laws of Nature, that these laws can be revealed by experiment, and that knowledge of these laws can be made both to save and to take lives, both on unprecedented scales. Science, they recognize, grants immense powers. In a flash, they create world-altering contrivances. Some planetary civilizations see their way through, place limits on what may and what must not be done, and safely pass through the time of perils. Others, not so lucky or so prudent, perish.

Life's Lesson

I heard a story.
The story is about a grandmother and child. They often play a game that the grandmother is very well skilled at. She wins almost every time. The child becomes very good at the game, and begins to beat the grandmother in time. As the years pass they play very much, and always against each other if they can. The point of this game was to get as much as you could until there was nothing left for you or for the others to have. The game was played fierce with all types of moral and ethics. No matter what... the game would always end. That was the way it was made. So every time the game was over, every piece acquired, all the fake money received, every move made, the time spent for each space on the board and object earned, patience for a chance to have it all...the dreams of everything... would eventually come to and end. So, even if you did win... you only did for so long... and then everything was placed back in the box. The child was now learning the game. Though still never understood why the game took so long at times, the excitement ended so quickly, and when it did, everything went back to the box so fast. If the child wanted to play again, she surely would play, she has before, and will again, but before the child can ask, she sees his disappointment and says to the child, 'The point is to learn the game better while you're playing together, make all the best choices you can with the pieces you were given, and before it's over enjoy the time spent, and then it all goes back to the box.'
