Confidence
Many clever strong minded people have been playing abuse of power, doctors, journalists manipulating news, politicians, religions leaders, lawyers, family, society.
Who in principle should be helpful... are too often doing the opposite.
Why power is not in good hands?
Why the power is used to "delete" who is against...
Power trip... ego, egoism, closed mind.
In the book "Other Minds" The Octopus and the evolution of intelligent life from Peter Godfrey-Smith, interesting the possibility of how nervous system history is being build until human being and has been split from the direction Octopuses brain is taken.
In the History is not yet clear how we developed til an intelligent being... and other animals intelligency. One thing is clear: "When you dive into the sea, you are diving into the origin of us all." There is so much still to learn from the sea and all life around!
If we look well, every single corner is full of life, it is a wonder! not yet all studied...
But, the strongest prevails and their genes are being carried further.
After so much brutal wars, dictators, land conquers, the human prevailed genes come from destroyers or peace makers???
To be gentle in this era is still often seen as weakness... how to be gentle and strong enough, be confident to carry on new ideas, constructive plans without abuse of power, to use intelligence and senses combined with confidence.
I am reading "Utopia for realists" from Rutger Bregman, brilliantly written, he mentions how valuable "leisure time" is, for writers, thinkers, artists, students, family, society.
500 years ago in the History "leisure time" was respected an aimed.
Why walk we backwards? non sense jobs demanding work, work, work, workaholics, symbol of status? ... stress as result, burn outs, depressions, sick... waist of time...
Utopia? to pursue a better quality of life instead of status, money or consumerism?
Brain washed through power ego wars, company competitions, reclames manipulation, money, bankiers, brutal and blind politics has been playing long enough in our lifes!
Enough is enough!
"Utopia for realists" from Rutger Bregman is better than passivity, let's go for "Basic income", no country borders, 15 hour work week, focus in to develop personal talents in our "leisure time"!
Confidence to gently switch the use of intelligence and our senses to be fully alive! not as zombie. "Leisure time"! nest of creativity, new possibilities, different thinking, time for family and take better care of our "home" planet.
Who does not wants it?
We are not comanded robots! we may make a choice!
Stop complaining, do something!
Continuously taken small steps, we can change the direction to such utopia life style.
Time for action! Live life!!!
