How I see the World



the world. as i understand it, is full of possibilities and probabilities.

There's a lot we can agree on: It is round, there are rich and poor folk, there's healthy and junk food.
My explanations for Why-It-Is-The-Way-It-Is varies often,
but some beliefs are constant.
There's a high probability in my view that Big Anonymous Companies are benefiting at the expense of less fortunate people. There's a high probability that food has become a commodity and that we suffer because of it in health and in the future health of our planet....
There's, in my view, a high probability that this is unintentionally malicious, and that indivual people seek security and pleasure without considering the widespread effect that this behavior has on the less fortunate. There's also a mild possibility that it is Intentionally malicious as is often portrayed in the media, but I do not believe this.

There is a high, very high probability, that material existence is the tip of the reality-iceberg, and that life-after-death is real, and that consciousness permeates all around us. There is a small possibility that there is a malicious form of spirits, but since this extra-material realm necessitates certain experiences to confirm my personal belief, i choose not to believe scary things, because i have no confirmation of it. There's a high probability that sweet, loving, nurturing, creative, loving consciousness is all around us all the time, and that our bodies are capable of tapping into it... somehow. Maybe historically the destruction that comes with creation was interpreted as intentionally malicious, but i believe its innocent and just part of the dynamic...

 There's a high probability that i am hypersensitive to tensions in my body which the average person doesn't feel. There's a high probability that "psychic" abilities are real, and that what I experience is hyper-sensitive empathy. There's a high probability that I feel the tension in peoples body and can read much more about them than they would be voluntarily vulnerable to. Luckily there's nothing to worry about, because that sort of empathic knowledge only leads me to have more compassion and not the judgment that you might worry about.

There's a high probability that our heart-beat and emotional vibration can affect people through non-material means. There's a very low possibility that unconsciously doing this negatively is not causing problems in our world...

Based on how I see the world, it seems there are problems of pollution, soil depletion, undrinkable water, decreasing biodiversity, a nauseating amount of discrepancy between the have's and have-not's, and that the effects are due to pervasive human values.

it also seems to me that people work a lot more than they want and many do work that doesn't mean anything to them. It seems like there are too few farmers working too big a plot of land without biodiversity, and a great solution would be if everybody farmed a little bit and provided enough of their own food. It would be more meaningful work, and there's a high probability that many people would spend much less time "working" (or doing what needs to be done, rather) and have more time for leisure activities... There's a possibility that the money people spend on entertainment, shopping, and food don't actually create happiness and fulfillment, and that the beauty and diversity of living in the above stated manner would actually be deeply fulfilling. There's a high probability that in general parents aren't happy with the life they live with their children as they grow up, and an equally high probability that parents would love and appreciate their children more as equal humans if they lived a more relaxed life.



So... You may have been reading this and disagreed because we chose to watch different documentaries, listened to different music growing up, met different people, and had different experiences, and we even have different temperaments and tensions in our body. It's okay to disagree with what others think is probable or even possible. There's a lot we could probably agree on.

We could probably agree that suffering is undesirable, relaxing is pleasurable, and releasing tension feels great.

And there's a large possibility that you have a job and its not meaningful, per se, but you're happy enough with it and it provides you with a comfortable lifestyle and you're not really aching for a change.

There's a possibility that reading this planted a seed in your head, and that you'll begin paying attention to the actual happiness that trinkets you buy provide you with, and a nagging feeling develops that perhaps you are unaware of a slight discontentment with the way of the world.

If you could go back to childhood and remember how to dream an infinite dream, I wonder what you would dream. There's a huge possibility that its still possible to accomplish anything you could dream of if you are persistent, diligent, patient, and full of hope and desire.
