    Do You Want To Live or Do You Just Want To Survive

    Are you happy just existing? Is spending your life in survival mode your desired reality? If so, more

    power to you. Far be it for me to tell you you're not happy if you truly are. Some people stake their claim

    to fame in the crisis mode. Living a reactionary existence. That's life but that's not living. There is a world

    of difference between living and surviving, but oddly enough for some people, and whole cultures,

    merely surviving is how they spend their time on this planet. My desire is to talk about the struggle that

    we face as Humanity. See, no one can be free if everyone isn't free. Tommy Stewart, a long deceased

    friend from my youth once told me something that actually sent me on the path of examining the

    differences in perception. I had called some one an "Uncle Tom" and he pointed out that Uncle Tom was

    actually a hero. He selflessly took on the burden of his people to ensure their survival. Then he told me

    that slave owners were, in essence, slaves to slavery. Now when he said this, I told him that was the

    stupidest thing I'd ever heard. I even passed him over on the joint rotation for saying some shit like that.

    That night, as was my usual routine, I reviewed my day and conversations and I could see his position.

    Though there was ABSOLUTELY no comparing of circumstances, they trapped them self in slavery

    because their fortune was invested in production from slavery. Logically, they had to take care of their

    slaves to insure their profitability. You can't hold someone down and be free yourself. A whole lot of

    work, effort and even money that could be put to better use, gets all tied up when you try to hold

    someone back.

    My point is that being free is not about race, gender, nor is it about the past or future. It isn't about any

    of that. It is about now. The present. This is where we live. Many proud whites think that they are

    divinely selected to be free, at the expense of any and all other cultures, but they aren't, (unless theyhave information I'm not privy to). Wheels within wheels, remember? People are fed a steady diet of

    hate, mistrust and animosity on so many different levels, that they can't even realize that all divisions

    between people are manufactured. Even taking the biggest "division" of them all, the Haves and the

    Have-Nots. I'm speaking of the elite of this world who believe that their bloodline actually entitles them

    to pull the strings of Humanity. Many who think that they are one of the "haves" are sadly mistaken.

    What they are misunderstanding is that you can have lots of money but no power. Real power comes

    from bloodlines, or what they like to call "old money". So, many people are cash rich but are powerless.

    What would happen if we decided to change the conditions we live in? If we stopped buying into the

    "Propaganda of Limitation" that is designed to make fail to realize our true self worth and potential? If

    we regained control of our life/destiny we'd stop allowing other to think for us because they tell us they

    know what's best for us or that they'll handle our problems for us? If we only bought things that were

    built to last? If we only bought products that have been thoroughly tested for safety? If we held all seats

    of government accountable? If we required churches to pay taxes? If assured superior education and

    jobs to all people? If we ensured that every business provide a safe work environment? If everyone was

    assured excellent healthcare? If workers received wages that give them quality of life? If we protected

    our environment from abuse and destruction? How do you think this would affect this society? If we

    desired a system that was not an "economics of aggression" program, what would happen? If you lived

    in a $90,000 home instead of a $400,000, what would happen? What would happen if you drove a

    $20,000 car instead of a $40 or $50,000 one? What would happen if instead of your children having

    everything the market and media directed to them, you started going outside to play with them and

    teach them the value of good health and exercise? Know what I think would happen? I think you would

    be doing Humanity a big service. A result of your action could be a happier husband, happier wife,

    happier children, a happier family, a happier neighbor, a happier neighborhood, a happier community, a

    happier society. All because you chose to take some of the pressures off yourself by letting others define

    you.

    You may be saying, "Get real, buddy. I saw the Matrix. It's not that simple. Life is complicated and

    everything is intermingled". You're right, this existence is very complicated, but only because we each

    make it so. We all contribute to the complication. It's not easy to unplug while others choose a

    programmed existence. Plus, old habits are hard to break,(it's going to be hard to pass up a shot at that

    new Mercedes), but people are and so can you. People have changed their self image and are

    unplugged. People are deciding to put the health and well-being of them self and of their families before

    the wants of a system that knows no end to its avarice. They've downscaled their home and cars to ones

    more functional. Took less stressful jobs or started their own family businesses. Spend quality time as a

    family. Some got off the grid altogether and bought small farms, organically growing much of their own

    food. I'm sure they went through hardships to make this change, but the difference is that because of

    their new self image they look at them self differently. They approach problems differently so they

    resolve problems differently and they are much happier. They found that "Things" aren't really all thatimportant to their happiness and well-being. Staunch supporters of this political/economic/religious

    system would have you believe that this would lead to a total breakdown of society. I say no, it would

    lead to a breakdown of this system. Hell, it's only working for an elite few anyway. They'll even tell you

    that nothing would get done without the incentive of personal gain, because that's human nature. I find

    this insulting because this implies that people are naturally selfish and lazy which is far from the truth.

    People will work to satisfy their needs and also the needs of others. How many times have you went to

    help a friend or someone else in need on your only day off? Man likes knowing where his work is going.

    These same people will tell you that no new technology will be created and Mankind will stagnate. I

    disagree with that also. First of all I think that this system, as it stands, does more to stifle creativity.

    Here's my thought, tell me if you agree. I think that some products that can cure or are longer lasting arekept from the market because there is more money in repeat business. For all we know, there could be

    a cure for cancer right now sitting on the shelf collecting dust in some vault. But since there is more

    money to be made in the TREATMENT rather than the cure of cancer, it will continue to be hidden away

    in that vault. When have you ever known big business to turn down the opportunity to make a profit, ill-

    gotten or otherwise?

    What I'm saying is that the life you are leading is not the life you truly deserve, because a programmed

    you made that decision. You have been conditioned by the many years and generations of

    indoctrination, of yourself and others, to let the "powers that be" do your thinking for you. You are

    being bombarded with propaganda from TV, radio, movies telling you everything from how white your

    teeth should be to how you need to ask your doctor for prescriptions for miracle drugs. Do you find

    happiness working 60 hours a week? Enjoy watching your family creating fond memories that don't

    include you? I don't think you do. I think you want to provide for your family but you also want to be

    there with your family.

    I'm not talking about a violent revolution to overthrown the status quo. That really doesn't change

    anything except replace one form of tyranny for another. No, all you have to do is change yourself. Stop

    doing what you know is wrong and stop allowing wrong to be done in your name. Start taking

    responsibility for yourself. That's it. You are up to your ears in "time saving" devices. What are you doing

    with that time you save? Why not use it on yourself? Take time to review and change your image of

    yourself, to one that is in accordance with your Human nature. The first step in taking your life back is to

    stop giving it away. Take control of your fate and destiny. You don't have to hate anyone, that's a waste

    of energy and getting back in touch with your true nature is going to take lots of energy. Society is as

    programmed as you are and they are going to feel under attack. Stop allowing others to think for you

    and do corrupt and vile things in your name.

    Being back in touch with your nature would make you a happier person. Being able to tap into the

    natural essence and life force of Humanity, can have no downside. I don't necessarily mean running

    naked through the woods naked, eating tree bark or living in caves. I mean living more in tune with theharmony of nature. We have been taken so far from our natural state it's no wonder that we are sick

    and confused all the time. Nothing we eat is natural. Nothing we drink is natural. None of the medicines

    we take are natural, (even those labeled "natural", because for food and drug purposes the definition of

    "natural" was altered). The air we breathe is definitely not natural. Our children are eating genetically

    altered foods and sitting in front of the TV. or computer playing video games, instead of being outside

    playing and exercising their body, mind and developing instincts; young adults now must have their own

    vehicles at 16, (instead of walking), and have mobile phones stuck to their ear like added appendages,

    texting in abbreviated English that bad grammar and spelling, (and they are wayyy to cute to dance);

    adults sit in front of the TV watching so-called "reality" shows as if these people are prophets holding

    the key to life; desiring to imitate the life enactment portrayed by the clowns they admire. Watchingother people trudging through a gross depiction of life and happiness instead of living life and happiness

    of their own making. All of this serves to turn minds to mush. What we're watching is not even life

    because everything that we see is programmed. Like a play. Why should you care what the Housewives

    of Orange County think? Why would you value the Kardasians opinion of life? Do you think that the

    persona on the screen is who these people really are? They're putting on a show for you. You validate

    their self-image. They backstab and are bitchy and try to "one up" each other and are rude, shallow and

    4/5

    obnoxious because they want, (nay, NEED), you to find them interesting. Even if this were their true self,

    so what? Get out and make a life of your own. Begin by taking walks, sniffing flowers and listening to

    birdies sing. Start eating better, more natural. With all of the time saving devices and appliances, "that

    no home should be without", you should be able to take the time to provide more natural meals for

    your family. Start demanding excellence, ethics and honesty not only in politics/business/religion, but in

    your personal and professional relations. Keep a positive image of yourself and everyone else. It is no

    secret that I am opposed to government of any type, but logically I realize that we, Humanity, are not

    quite ready to be without any, but we can demand better of them. We should expect that things are

    done in a manner that excludes no one. Strike unjust laws restrictive to personal liberty. Individuals are

    more important than corporations. Congressional Bills should enhance our life. No hidden clauses or

    attached amendments that detract but have plenty of PORK and kickbacks. Expect justice for all. This

    would take burden and pressure off of society and the economy. Allow unrestricted access to

    opportunity and watch how future generations develop and advance by leaps and bounds. This is our

    duty and obligation to Humanity on our watch.

    Whatever you do, someone will criticize you. You will be blamed if you act and even if you don't act;

    if you speak, or don't speak. You can't keep pleasing everyone. If your focus is on finding

    shortcomings, either in yourself or in others, you cannot raise higher. Recognize that if someone gives

    a comment, reflect on it. If there is some truth, accept it. If not, then thank them and move on."-Sri

    Sri Ravishankar

    Love is stronger than any problem that you will ever face. So love should be our tool of choice, not hate.

    Love is in harmony with the vibrations of nature. Love is the life force of the collective essence ofHumanity. Love is a building tool. Hate is a demolishing tool. Love energizes, hate depletes.

    Ok. Pop quiz. Which emotion is responsible for our young people being in the Persian Gulf needlessly

    dying: A) Love or B) Hate? We've put 10 seconds on the clock.... GO!..........

    We have a winner! We have a winner! The correct answer is: B) Hate. That's alright though, not to

    worry, because since we've demonstrated hatred towards them and their culture that makes them want

    to love us, right? Hate begets Love, right? (I always wanted to use 'begat' in conversation while I wasn't

    stoned). Wait, are you telling me that hating someone doesn't make them love, but hate us in return?

    Hmmm. Can we build understanding between us using hate? Ok. I think I get what I'm saying, (I'm a

    regular brainchild). We should have enough love within our self for Humanity, that we would have no

    desire to oppress our fellow man. To control others is not our desire, but to obtain an outcome we

    desire we first have to change ourself. We have to open ourselves and connect with the life force that

    binds us all, that makes us one.

    Err, sir, I have a question though. How do we change our attitudes when we are fed information

    everyday about the atrocities that 'those people' commit?

    Well, first I would say stop referring to ANY one as 'those people'. Next, are you referring to the same

    government, economic/religious propaganda machine,(news media), that has played a major part in

    Your indoctrination and control? You tell me. Do YOU think you can believe them? They don't have the

    best track record for honesty and show no sign of repentance or remorse, do they? We never get the

    whole story, (wheels within wheels), so we don't know what is truly going on. What we do know without

    a doubt is that they are being indoctrinated just as we are. In the meantime young people, (ours AND

    theirs) are dying. That's all I need to know. I want THAT to stop. We can deal with specifics later.

    Taking your power back is a step in the direction of ending wars, injustice, discrimination, poverty,

    hunger, disease and hate for all time. Take your power back. Teach your children to keep their power.

    They will be much happier. So will Humanity.
