Gab1159 (OP) User ID: 1500430 Canada 08/21/2011 06:00 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You pretty much hit the nail with that: "Love is the absence of FEAR. Fear is the absence of LOVE." Once you understand you shouldn't be afraid to die, the game/matrix becomes so obvious that you simply step back from it. I used to want to be a big banker of some sort, but as soon as I became aware of the illusion, I started to hate work. As you said, it only keep us from understanding our "reality". You have to work your ass off to make hands meet, while billions are spent on bombs, spent on 50,000$/plate diners, spent on advanced warships, etc etc. Just the fact that we have to work that much proves a conspiracy in itself. When will people just get in touch with their inner self and realize they're playing a dirty game? Love! |

Twisted Hazel User ID: 1396715 United Kingdom 08/21/2011 06:38 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Almost everyday, I look around and say "this is not how it should be". The whole planet is driven by fear and terror. Whether its a deer in the forest or a factory worker, fear is the driver. Where is the pleasure in living scared all the time, every day, all day. Why are we all still driven reproduce offspring to live in fear. Its all wrong, everything is not how it should be. I don't think I was put here on earth now, to be worried, bombarded with fearful imagery or filled with desire for the latest sparkly shit, skin cream, car. I feel that things are about to change, they can't go on the way they are anymore. The people on top are having a ball, partying while their ship sinks and they haven't even noticed the water bearing down on them in a huge massive wave of change. But I can, I can hear the roar and it gives me hope, not Obama hope. Real tangible hope. Its the only thing that keeps me going on this disaster of a raped plundered (by the oh so very few) planet. I pray that the damage can be reversed I pray that I will see the day, its all I can do .... |

The other 10 per cent can be volunteers. The reason everyone must work right now is the monetary system. We need to get rid of currency. It is outdated and inefficient, especially for our technologically advanced world. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 1509784 United Kingdom 08/21/2011 06:48 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I've been thinking about this for a while now. How here believe humans shouldn't have to work horrible 9 to 5 jobs everyday? Quoting: Gab1159Does anybody here feel we are more than ants? Am I the only one to feel we are supposed to fulfill a greater spiritual mission? I'm not saying we shouldn't be working at all, but our technology make it possible, RIGHT NOW, to replace many boring and repetitive jobs by AI. The only problem is the economy, how it is wrongly made. There is enough resources for everyone on the planet. Why do we have to work our asses for it? Earth is a planet of immense abundance, yet we have to give our life to work in order to survive. Isn't that a bit sad? AI will never replace a man's brain, however, it could do a lot of repetitive stuff, like factory jobs and all. I work 43 hours/week in a lame factory, coiling pipes. Don't tell me machines can't do this. So who feels the economy and the structure of employment is just wrong? Who feels we're meant to do something better than to work like ants? We're humans after all... Most people work just to fulfill each others and their own desires, to buy things, like a new car every year, or to make another man profit from your own work. For here, it is perfectly right. Nothing wrong with it. Only those who desire more will step off the wide path to ruin and look for something more substantial. Like a higher spiritual purpose. To be blunt you have to see and experience the world for what it is really is to enter onto that path. As you can clearly see people are quite content with what they have. With that said most humans on the planet have it much worse than working 9- 5 five times a week. |

I envisage a life where I can deeply enjoy the pleasures of this planet and simply Being with loved ones. Where I feel truly FREE. Where value is put on how Aware and Awake I am! Can't wait for Unity Consciousness!! Hurry up!! |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1512177 Romania 08/21/2011 05:12 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Great thread, nice read, good dreaming... I want to work, but I want to do something I really believe in, so the society can gain from it, and perhaps in the future nobody has to work. I believe the first change it could be something less drastic. Say 6 hours workday and earlier retirement. Then, another system is needed. I know what Communism was and I don't wish it upon anybody. But neither Capitalism can't do it. Profit and human spirit can never coexist. In the end, I think we're not up to it, as we wouldn't deserve it. Let's face it, we're not that great anymore. |

We gave up on the EARTH Our ancient ancestors only toiled towards spirutuality and for the land. They did not toil their their lives for what riches and things. Things is what did us in, and the Elite know this secret. Aboriginal cultures survive centuries living off the land, But our society looks down on that as second class they cannot see them selves living spiritually only artificially.... |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1306723 United States 08/21/2011 05:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yes you are right OP. If you think about it. Everything is perfectly calculated so that on average every person has to work about 40 hours per week. Minimum wages and the pay for your rent/mortgage, food,taxes et cetera. It's all calculated. Sick! Here in holland you pay more for the land where you built a house then you pay for building a house! I never understood why we have to pay for having a piece of land!??! WTF?!? Pay for land?!? To whom? Who am i paying? Did this person create the earth? Is it God's fucking bankaccount i'm putting money on every month? /.......I don't think so. In my way of thinking. Every being that is born on this earth, has the right to 'own' a piece of land to live life from. AND NOT PAY FOR IT! It WAS and IS already there! And for rent.. when you rent a home.. you pay in here for average about 400-600 euro's a month. WTF?!? that is a fucking lot! All those house you see are already payed off! The builders have been payed... the suppliers of materials to build the houses are already payed. So why do we have to keep paying every fucking month so much rent? It's not that about every few months the whole house falls apart or something! I could go on with so many things! But yes OP you are fucking right!! |

Who can actually sell it? No one can own it. We can use it while we're here and then someone else uses it. The fact that you forever pay taxes for land is proof that you never own it. Taxing something that no one can own is one more scam. |

If I'm going to work, I would rather work with land. Like our ancestors did. Less stress and more time for living. I wish I had more time to devote to my spirituality, but instead I have to work, work, work... |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1465238 United States 08/31/2011 09:53 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Work smarter not harder.. I have nothing and want alot of things.. But one day I will figure out a way to get it easy. I refuse to work a repetitive mundane day to day..job like a zombie while my life flies by me. I have a bachelor's degree.. and cannot find anything more than 10.00 an hour so guess what.. my time is more valuable to me than that. So I live simple for the time being.. I explore a vast universe of knowledge and wonder at my keyboard everyday..and I don't have to leave my house or spend any money to do it. Best of all.. Im free... I answer to no one..and never will unless they give me a wage I feel is worth my time. I get up when I want and the first thing I do is walk outside and smell the air..and feel the sun on my face. Watch a few leaves flutter in the wind. I set down w/ my dog for an hour and drink a couple cups of coffee. The best two hours of my day. While I laugh inside at the people who are answering phones "Thank you for calling Verizon.."" "My name is Clarence..How may I help you today".. "whats that.. Your effing going to kill me..I apologyize sir..how can we resolve this problem since you are a valued customer of ours" |
