Where is the love? November 13, 2009

Frustrated with my employer being reluctant to answer my simple question I wrote this extended version. It was taken down rather quickly and resulted in a meeting with a head honcho where nothing much was accomplished. They have a policy of answering within 48 hours.  Sorry for the edits I gave this site out at work as well and can’t mention anything that would identify my employer

****** *******            #1 ***                                                                                                                                  9/9/9

On August 18^th I posted a question on this board “Where is the love?” After it was taken down I posted it three more times each time it was taken down without an answer.  504 hours later, on September 9^th a member of management finally contacted me giving me back my question and asking me to specify more clearly what I was inquiring about.

After observing how the corporation conducts itself over the past three years I noticed love was missing from its business practices. Witnessing the ruthless attitude of corporate representatives climbing the ladder one thing became clearly evident. Ego dominates this environment and they have lost connection with their heart in pursuit of material gain. I was saddened to see those that still have a heart punished or looked down upon for being lenient.  Although being ill or injured cuts into the corporation’s profits we are not machines and we are susceptible to disease and injury. Furthermore this environment is mentally and soulfully draining and I would argue the cause of some of the mental illnesses the corporation is trying to combat with its “awareness” program.

Earlier I inquired as to reports or documents showing **** volume comparisons from the current year to last year to justify the corporation’s claims volumes are down and such documents would then justify the reduction in hours and cutting corners. This request was met with the response that these reports are not public therefore it was not their responsibility to provide them. Interestingly enough there was enough money for massive bonuses for our leaders and our union members, for machine upgrades for our job cuts I mean “modern  ****” and nice television sets to pump their message. I understand a corporation legally has all the rights of a person and conducts itself in such a manner. One thing missing from this entity is a heart and the fact it cannot be terminated. One would hope that the representatives delegated to guide the corporation would have such an organ and be sympathetic to the humans providing the Canadian people a service.

If history is any indication as to what the future holds for such entities I would hope one could understand people have a breaking point. If I had a weaker mind and a shorter temper I would have met mine long ago. If the corporation conducted itself in an ethical and transparent manner there would be no need for a union. That being said, if light was shone on this dark entity the truth would be evident and its employees would most likely be livid. The goal of any corporation is profit no matter what the human or environmental cost. As such when the corporation’s **** employees understand it is them that make the union and not its administrators the corporation will most likely have a harder time generating its profit. If the corporation wishes to continue to conduct itself in such a manner I fear it will share the same fate as the others. Our corporate leaders can choose to be on the forefront of change or perish with the corrupt system it helps to uphold. Regardless of their choice humans have a limit and the only element missing from change is more suffering. Something I believe is on the way.  As Gandhi said you must “be the change you want to see in the world” and as Mr. Hendrix said “when the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace”

After understanding my point of view my question remains the same. Where is the love?

Mind Health November 9, 2009

The most important thing you can keep healthy is your mind. As humans, we are only the sum of our experience. Experiences can be positive and negative. Emotional cords are attached to both. If we hold on to our negative experiences they will control who we are. Being able to understand what was learned from the negative and cut the cords attached to these experiences leads to happiness. This process has been termed “emotional clearing”. I have been fortunate enough to have not had many negative experiences but as I journey forward I am starting to realize there are things that need to be dealt with, and not all were what I thought would be negative. Most people lock these things away and let it affect their character. In dealing with the pain and suffering we can learn from it. “Know Thyself.”

Your actions have reactions. How you conduct yourself on a day to day basis shapes the people around you as you are a part of their experience. Keeping this as positive as possible really does help any environment, especially those environments that seem to have lost all hope.

Based on experience I can tell you that fear runs our society. Losing your job, catching a disease, not having enough money, relationship strife; all of these are examples of tactics. Have you ever come across someone that does not have a care in the world? Have you noticed not many negative things happen to them? Allowing fear in your mind has a great effect. The book “The Secret” illustrates the universal law of attraction.  Basically whatever is in your mind turns into reality. Ask anyone who is really successful. It would be rare to find someone that did not have their current position in mind before they got started. This law has negative and positive effects. If you are constantly thinking that bad things are, or will happen to you, guess what? You will be surrounded by negativity. This may be a better explanation of the origins of depression. It would seem it is a downward cycle that can be reversed at any time by the power of your own mind. You cannot pull anyone out of depression. You can offer tips but it is them that must work on themselves.

Much like the downward spiral fear brings, love offers the opposite result. Filling your heart with love attracts the same type of people into your life. Those that have negative “vibes” about them become evident and they will cease to have an effect your state of mind as they will most likely not be around you long. You can try and bring these people up but don’t spend too much time as they do drag you down to their vibration level.  Love is the best thing you could feed a sick or healthy mind. People that claim to be “high on life” most likely experience a great deal of love in their day to day life. Loving actions elevate your vibration level. Your heart is never wrong. Seeing the homeless person in need, the bolt that passes through the head of the cow that will feed you, or the torture of prisoners of war, affect your heart. Thinking of fixing these things is out of your control is simply wrong. There is nothing outside of your control! When you have a goal tell yourself you will do it, or die trying. The goal in my mind is to bring balance back to earth and I will probably die trying as the truth is never liked by the powers that are. Many people seem to think I am insane. All I have done is managed to connect my heart with my mind. After doing so a great deal of deceit becomes evident in your environment. Tip: follow the money. That’s usually where is starts.

The people that have been attracted to me have taught me many things: You cannot force your will on someone else; your actions have reactions; love will fix everything; patience is the best attribute you can hold, among many other lessons. So far there seems to be a good reason our aboriginal voice is constantly silenced. They have a greater understanding the changes the earth is undergoing and that we are marching towards our own end. Love in your heart will grant you passage to any of their communities. These people are often dismissed as drunks and alcohol is indeed the worst medicine that plagues their people. I have found a tremendous amount of respect for their culture and history as their understanding of earth is far greater than anything Victorian society teaches.

Your mind is your own and although it is good to bounce ideas off of people, actions inspired by your heart, in my experience, are never wrong and in fact are healthy for your mind. Listen to your heart it was a gift to you and will guide you through any trouble. As I stated in my previous blog there is an entire society dedicated to drill this out of you. Stay strong, Light workers are underfunded and short staffed but rest assured we will prevail. After all, the future of humanity depends on it.

Keep smiling,

Marriage November 8, 2009

I had a dream about a wedding I attended. “Marriage doesn’t work in the world today, its an institution that is in decay” – Bradley Nowell

Why is it the divorce rate climbs and family units are destroyed at an ever growing rate? Greed? Lust? Ego? The fact is there are many reasons and most are due to a lack of communication and understanding from the spouse’s point of view. Men often wake up ten or so years in understanding they had little choice in the course of their life due to their natural need for sustainable sexual relations. Women wake up ten years in, understanding their spouse has little interest in their needs and start wondering if they could have made a better choice, or if they should have married the last guy. The emotional cords attached to previous relationships are always there regardless of whether you wish to acknowledge them or not. Our experience is our greatest teacher and we carry these experiences with us into our new path whatever it may be.

The family unit is becoming something of the past. Both parents are working and there is no time for love and support to flourish in that environment. Children are raised by a marketing machine designed to isolate them from others and fill them with insecurity. There is nothing wrong with you! You are a fantastic powerful beautiful human being and destiny is well within your control. This machine (TV) has only increased its efficiency as many adult minds are paid to dedicate their lives to improve it. This system of cyclical consumption is disgusting, outdated and simply not necessary.  (see http://storyofstuff.com)

Women often fall into the trap of the false sense of security that is money. Money is a tool and in my opinion not necessary for a healthy society. If the money leaves will the love still be there? Sadly enough many people go about their entire life experience without fully understanding what love is.

Men are shown that the pursuit of expanding their wealth will make them happy. Unfortunately this could not be further from the truth. After observing some very powerful wealthy people I have noticed none of them have a true sense of happiness. If you attach your happiness to things you will never be happy. Love is all that is necessary to be happy and the love of money will hinder your spiritual growth. This life is not a competition and you define your own happiness. Seeking external acknowledgment that you are doing the right thing is often a sign you are doing just the opposite. Your heart is never wrong and if you understand how to listen to it nothing is more fulfilling.

Ego plays a huge role in the disintegration of relationships. Many people have difficulty being criticized or admitting they are, and can be, wrong. I enjoy being wrong as being wrong allows you to learn something new. I am no better or worse than any other human being on the planet. We are all pretty much the same. There is no difference between a busker and a C.E.O in my opinion. The only difference is how easily they set aside what their heart wants in pursuit of what society tells them they want. You can have whatever you want. The power of your mind is unstoppable. Often this universal law is executed for the wrong reasons. You can never control the actions of another person nor should you. The only actions you can control are your own. Exercising tempered reason often resolves any conflict between any parties. If the issues are not resolved then it played out this way for a reason and you have something to learn from the experience.

I found it interesting that most corporations have the behavioral patterns of a psychopath. (See definition http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychopathy) If these institutions that lead our society in providing us sustenance carry these traits, how could it not carry into our daily lives? It is interesting to note that the psychopath has “many short term marital relations”, and this could very well be the cause of our increasing divorce rate.

A sad state of affairs the world is in but certainly not beyond recovery. All we need is to feel a little more pain and suffering as our brothers and sisters feel in the third world. Given the current state of the economy in the western worlds, I would say the time for change approaches. Keeping everyone docile and complacent is key to maintaining the institutions that rule us. After you take away the things that make us self-absorbed and languid, the truth will become evident. “None but ourselves can free our minds” – Bob Marley

However, it is astonishing to note that whether lasting relationships are in decline because of greed, or ego or lust, no one seems to understand what could fix it. What emotion could cause people to put themselves into a position of vulnerability that cannot be shared by corporations or machines? People are creatures of love, but are being taught by a society of psychopaths, that it’s weak and foolish. Of everything humans are capable of, love is a fantastic thing that never dies.

To anyone that is upset by the things that I say, do note that you are judging yourself and seeking justification for your own behavior. However while you are entitled to your opinion, so shall I, be entitled to mine.
