a long time ago strawberryfields and i where talking about changing the world. so i just want to tell me story... people are the strangest animals i think, we can make things, we can build things, we kill animals without using hands or teeth, we just take away much of nature to set our needs there and go on. if someone can change it, it's us, people... look at mother nature, she is trying and trying and trying.. but all we say is "o that's just a natural disaster" or "yeah that is nature who's trying to whipe us out" but there is nothin happening to help her. we only think about ourselves and the human being, giving money and stuff... sometimes i think let mother nature do her work, and let's help her. i don't want to make this story to long, because this is the beginning post and and maybe some readers are scared of large texts. i want to know if u have any ideas to change, and what you all think about it, and do about it. i know that there are much topics about this, but they didnt reach what i was thinkin about, can't find real ideas in them...
i think the best way to change these things is to start living the way you think will make a difference, and find other people who are doing that or want to do that too, and live together. then, promote your way of living, do the 'hare krishna', go to the streets and tell people, go about it as if you are trying to get attention to a religion. sounds strange, but if people can 'support' you while they go back to their save ol home, they are bound to see you as 'the other way of life' and that's very appealing to people...look at the way suddenly things like yoga, oprah winfrey, chocolate chip cookies, hip hop music, bob geldof and veganism where sort of 'hip' or no, more like hippies, punk, beatniks... get your plan, your way of life to be 'hip', promote it, set yourself aside from 'the rest of the world' and you'll get attention. i say...do the 'hare krishna' sounds bad...to try to get attention in such ways, but i honestly think that might be the only way it'll work to change any issues like this.
i'm doing that already well kinda, going on the highwaychild soon (check the communal living threads) but what do you have in mind? and tiger...lol... one of the guys who lives there WANTS me!!!
I have spent countless hours torturing myself with ways to change humanity and slowly, slowly I am beginning to realize that it will take a whole hell of alot. One man/woman holds the power to awaken the people to the problems of this world. The problem is that not everyone agrees on what the problem is. A vast majority of people in this nation and around world will say that the problem is tree loving hippies who are constatnly gettting in the way of mankinds progress. More people will say the problem is that not enough people believe in God. we will say the problem is that we all cant agree. And that my friends is the problem. We are all just too different to ever make everyone happy. It is impossible. You could, potentially, take over the country or even simply start a community of your own. Within that community you will still come across discrepancies in almost every aspect of life. You would still encounter children who, born within the community, would resent the life they grew up in and rebel. It is natural. I havnt completed this whole thought process, I just wanted to put it out there. As someone who has seriously taken time out of my life to attempt to solve this problem I can say you are in for a rough and frustrating ride. Shit, I can't even think of a better system then the one America uses, Democratic Capitalism. There are so many factors to consider. First, any large body of human beings must have some sort of governing. You may disagree, but think hard. Humans are fools. Lovley fools but fools nontheless. Imagine a billion people with no one to tell them what to do, where to go or what moral code to follow. The obvios outcome is anarchy. Not such a bad notion, but definatley not a good one either. There is somuch more, but I am at work and dont have the time right now to get into it. The purpose of me writing this is not at all to discourage it is to help you face the realities of an endevor of this sort. I am simply attempting to get other minds thinking on a track that can truley alter history. I will back tomorow.
i think you definatly have a point there, it maybe costs a lot of work to change all and make everyone happy but i think for nature it's the best thing to do change. why make human happy with a lot of bull shit, i think it's better to try to find a solution for the problems human made and help nature back in balance again. About the making million people happy trough one system, well i think that is the point where we went wrong. when people and cultures just lived apart from each other, im talking about yeeeeaaaaars back, they left each other alone. well maybe the cultures that were next to eacht other did fitgh, but definatly european germans didnt fight to indians in america for example. they just had their believe (in nature) and their life to make living possible. i think it went wrong when people wanted to have power over a lot of people. well now we are in a situation that it is really hard to change that, and i think that will be very hard to do cause not everyone wants it cause they love luxury, money, their safe house... but some people DO want changes, and that makes me think. Im talking about the basics here, changing the way of life to help nature back in balance. of course every people wants something else, but most people want a basic thing the same....
Yeah, it's true! Isn't it? Things that don't change stagnate and die? But nobody cares! Nobody listens, truly...but I can't decide if it's that people rely on each other too much or that they don't rely on each other enough. We're a frustrating breed...
