Pleasure

Repair sounds like a dull business so the motive for ‘mending’ has to be pleasure- based. The pleasure is in the saving of something as beautiful as the planet. It’s the spirit of enjoyment and repair that will be most appreciated by the generation to come.
Here’s a very attractive thought, that the world is growing wiser and healthier as each day passes. Could it ever be possible? If we tried to be that optimistic within our current frame of mind, sure, it couldn’t happen, because most of us are still operating in the old model. We’re still far too routinely violent, pessimistic and materialistic. We’re obsessed with our own sweet selves to the exclusion of all the rest, so attitudes have to be altered first. The damage we humans have caused is so great and on such a variety of levels that there’s no getting around the need for repair, kick or scream as we might.
We have to examine what we actually do with the materials we have at hand. At present the tool kit is pathetically dismal. We’re at kindergarten stage, we’re acting like small children still trying to please the parent. As adults we’re still trying to please our leaders. And they love it and encourage us to do just that.
Many of our leaders aren’t really leaders at all, they’re just people in positions of authority who are good at taking advantage of people. They claim to lead but are there merely to make money from us. They use violence or they violate something most of us wouldn’t dream of violating.
The big lesson of this age is to boycott all of it! All the violated stuff. Give them no ear. Pay them no attention. Try NOT to please them in any way you can.
What I think has happened is this. The outcome of all our leaders’ deals and profits has degraded the lives of ordinary people. We’ve been allowed to merely exist while the so called leaders have continued to have their way with us.
We may safely predict this: that if we, individually, allow them to continue sucking the juices from us (and that includes sucking the planet dry), they’ll be over the moon. If we don’t boycott their commodities we deserve what they are dished up.
Watch out! These big boys will squeeze us, even harder if they have to (especially they’ll squeeze the animals down on the farm) and then none of us have anything to look forward to.
