Have you Ever been Swept Off Your Feet?

In both cases – whether the bubble was inflated with positive or negative energy – the participants in the bubble are being swept away further and further away from actual physical reality and start to see everything either ‘extremely negatively’ or ‘extremely positively’ – neither experience is grounded in reality – because the physical is neither positive or negative – it just is what it is.

And Then You Crash – Meconomics

In this little series, we’ve been investigating the phenomenon of inflation, how we in our daily lives participate in ‘inflating our reality’ and so, how we are on a personal level participating in the same principles/dynamics that we see playing out on a bigger scale when it comes to inflation, speculative bubbles and financial market crashes.

Welcoming New Life with Living Income Guaranteed

Comfort, security and nurturing are all things we wish are present when a baby comes into this world. Yet, these conditions are not a reality for many babies, as parents themselves like these things in their lives. In Pietermaritzburg, the capital of KwaZulu Natal province in South Africa, 3 to 5 babies are…

Humanity Washed Ashore

This was an excerpt of just one of the stories about the boy. Over the last few days, dozens have been written and published on various major news sites. What is more striking than the content of the posts, is the comments that are left on these articles. What is humanity’s response to such images, to such news?

Voting Fun – What does it Feel Like to Have a Say?

Now – before such increased direct political participation is a reality – let’s do a little test to see what it feels like. So – here are some mock-questions where you’re asked to give your input. Imagine that this relates to your direct reality (eg. your town) – and your answer has a weight that influences the outcome of the decision. Of course, in reality…

Day 97: An Economic Life Support System

I commit myself to expose how we, through accepting and allowing ourselves to merely see ourselves as limited beings who are incapable of any form of change, believing that we cannot stop our selfish, and thus, self-destructive nature, even if it is actually leading us to destruction.

I commit myself to educate people in seeing and realising that an individual in itself cannot exist and cannot sustain himself - as the physical reality is an interconnected system of life-support - and as such, without a group, without an inhabitable planet, we as individuals cannot exist.

I commit myself to stop the raping of planet Earth in all its forms - where the Earth is seen as what it is, a humongous life support system - and if we do not support the Earth in return, we will end life on Earth, if not Earth itself.

I commit myself to educate people in seeing and realising that it is not necessary for each human being to work for their entire lives, because we have the technology to minimize labour for each human to only require to work a limited amount of years, such as 4 years.

I commit myself to change the current economic system from a system of complete and utter disregard towards Earth, to a system that operates according to the principle of Life Support in every way.

I commit myself to let go of any preconceived ideas of what is possible and what is not possible and realise that if we take a big project and we approach it one step at a time, breath by breath, then it becomes do-able.

I commit myself to the uprooting of any beliefs that limit humanity through accepting statements such as 'that's life' where we completely surrender to the belief that the way things are, are the way things should be and the only way they can be - instead of just standing up and saying 'no more!' - to together as one, step by step, breath by breath - manifest a new world, one of which we're proud and one of which we can truly say: this is life!
