To sustain or not sustain... Is that really even the question?!












As us humans try to push 100% efficiency, it seems as if most of the general population is not aware that it cannot be reached. We are obsessed with making things easier. When it comes down to it, that is not the case when it comes to living our lives - anything worth anything, takes time. I believe most people can agree that we feel we don't even have the time of day to do anything! Is that not a shame for our lives in which we lead? It almost makes me feel at half-life when I think about it. Time seems to me, something that doesn't exist in actuality, only predetermined in society. In my inexperienced "time" on earth, I often wondered, "When did 'time' start?". I have come to realize as my body grew out of the inexperienced state, that there was not a start, nor will there be an end. I have come to terms with the fact that my body will end, but existence in itself will never perish. For the existence in which I speak is the universe at whole. In its absoluteness it is here, it is current. The universe will not go away. To me that makes it seem infinite. If the universe is infinite, and we are in it, how does that bode for the humans on earth? The earth is here to stay, until it reaches high temperatures and exists only in faster molecular form. Even at that it still "technically" and "physically" remains, only because of the recent research that someone said, "Matter cannot be created nor destroyed". I only quote that because some readers may need to know it didn't come from myself, only because they might have heard that elsewhere, in which I would be deemed stealing from others... stealing words that they neither own nor created themselves.



Having said all of that, there must be the possibility that us as humans can attain a goal of 99.99% efficiency and can in fact press the bar one more point higher. At this point we would almost have to say we start over to the 0.01%. If you are the number/factual mind, you could almost say we would be at 100%. Since humans have an incredible will to exceed our current power, it is then possible that we can press the bar higher past that. Moving up one step further puts us at 0.02%(or 100.02%). How many times can we repeat this? Can it continue infinitely? Does it stop at a certain point? If so, when? Even though it cannot be answered concretely in all or one persons mind, it does not mean it cannot exist. Don't forget that we already made a scale that starts at 1, continues to 100, then continues with one hundred 1's only to add more. If that number scale holds true, then would not that scale of the percentage hold true to that as well? On the real though... should we even be trying to press the bars???



This next question I have recently been toying with in my head. I do not know what my own thoughts are and how they lay in the track of my mind and the mind for the whole of the population...

What should be done for you?(the person reading this)

I exclude myself from this question because I have understood that I am completely capable of giving and receiving happiness. I know how I want to be, but, I have not one clue as to how you should be. I need to know how I can make anyone happy. Call it selfish if you want, but... this is me and this is what I WANT(it's not selfish by the way if it's to aid another person). If I could want anything in life, it is to know that people can find their own happiness. My next question;

Should we keep pressing the bar within our civilization(s)?


All these question rattles my brain so much more than anything I have came across thus far. What if pressing the bar brings "good" things for one, but not for the other? If we have everything we need to live and prosper, then why must we keep creating things in which are not needed anymore? What does it mean when someone is not satisfied with fulfilling their necessaties and necessaties only? Does that mean they created a possibility for their own unhappiness?



I wish to say to everyone that feels depressed or unhappy, "What does it take for you to be satisfied?" Some may answer, "To be happy..." I would then ask if they were suffering. If whomever was suffering, had options and choices to will and control their possibility for longevity, then I must say you are a fool to not find happiness.



Being more aware of this notion, in my life, has become a great tool for me to base my actions upon. I simply put happiness into my actions, act out the part of happy guy and I am happy. I have the things I need in order to survive with and as mankind. So, essentially, I should be done serving myself. Next is you.


Let us work together to achieve that happiness(obviously this could be bias, COULD be..........). As I said earlier about us pressing the bar for new this, new that, more this, more that... instead we ought to focus on the essentials for others lives if they are in distress:

Plentiful [real] foods, shelters and clothes...

Options for FREE education for everyone(more libraries? book stores?)...

More passive environments to raise our children(just as importantly, for OURselves)...



Now I know what you just might be thinking - "well, ideally... right?" OF COURSE IDEALLY! Most of those could benefit the population! Undoubtedly! But, it is the "HOW" we are supposed to ask in getting these notions instated. It boggles my mind indefinitely. In the midst of the mind boggling concepts, I re-learned two words that I have been taking for granted and ignored my whole entire life;

Sustainability & Development

To sustain would be ideal. To develop, would also be ideal in SOME cases. Sustain means to hold up, to bear or to support. I would like to help you sustain on this planet of ours (why not stake claim if we are ALL claiming it as one, right?). Also, I would like to develop - develop meaning to grow, unfold, cause to, bring out capabilities of or possibilities - a way for easier understanding. Developing is a good thing, when it comes to mind manifestation. But when it comes to the physical sense... not so much(refer to "Uh ooooh.... Pollution-O's! for greater detail). I'm not saying that we shouldn't grow physically, that's just dumb to think of. I'm only speaking of the "Natural World". The same world that has a self(world) sustaining notion. This planet has a good idea, for it replenishes on it's own and creates opportunities for the animals and non-animals. Animals that can actualize themselves, are the ones fucking this planet up(humans). This natural world doesn't need any developing. The only developing that needs to be done is the psyche of each and everyone of us. I am NOT discluding myself, for I try to learn on the daily, when my "thankful to have occupation" doesn't slow me down. Help me learn those two words better. Help me learn sustainable ways to; ensue a greater environment and living, form a greater mankind, actuate sensibility and relieve the tension of PAID SLAVERY. We will not need to do many of these "jobs" anymore if we can turn the planet back to a self sustaining notion that is once was and kind of is still. The only problem is that most people would probably be bored if there weren't many of these jobs. So, try that whole developing of the mind first. You won't be disappointed if there is no worry in your life anymore. Be free.
