Freedom Through Responsibility
Mar 10th
What if you were to blame for everything that ever happened in your life?
Every parking ticket, every break-up or divorice, every black eye and scar… Every love, every good thing, every victory, every defeat. What if all of these things came about as a direct result of you. What if you were responsible for everything that happens to you?
This is a tough concept for people to be open to, since most people have been raised from birth to be slaves and victims. “It’s not my fault.” How many times a day do you hear that? How many times is it you who’s saying it?
Why claim responsibility for everything in your life? Because that’s the only way that you can do something about your situation. If you are just a leaf floating in the wind, or a piece of wood floating on the ocean than you are and will always be at the mercy of the wind or the sea.
If you are powerless to change your life, it is only because you have given that power away. Most likely, you’ve given it to a hundred different unseen forces (friends, lovers, enemies, tv, advertising, commercialism, bad beliefs). And so, you play the victim, because that’s the path you’ve chosen for yourself in this life.
The way out of the victim lifestyle is to take responsibility for your life. Your boss doesn’t decide how much money you will make, you do. It’s not the cheesecake’s fault it has so many calories, you are the one eating it. It’s not your body’s fault for finally succumbing to the thousands of toxins it’s had to deal with on a daily basis for the last forty years, it’s your fault. It’s not the situation that made you unhappy, it’s you who chose to be unhappy about the situation.
So, what if you were responsible for everything in your life?
Think about it…
An End To Slavery
Nov 25th
I’m not gonna lie, I had a good cry today. For the first time in my life, I realized that I have been a slave for all my life. Or perhaps indentured servant is a better term…
How can we call ourselves free, when we clearly aren’t? Sure you can own land, as long as you pay for it… So you spend years of your life working for someone who is working for someone else, doing a job that you hate, all so you can “own” a piece of land in a country that supposedly belongs to you in the first place. And then what happens when you finally ‘own’ this piece of land? You are required to pay taxes on it every year, like some serf or peasant in service to some far off dictator king.
Who have we let take our land from us and then ransom it back to all Americans at a price that they must pay for the rest of their lives? Is this freedom?
And we wonder why the planet and environment is going to hell, it’s because nobody cares about what isn’t theirs. We don’t view the Earth as belonging to us, so we don’t take care of it. And pretty soon, it’s not going to be able to take care of us any longer either.
Why can’t every family own their own piece of the Motherland? Why can’t every family have a garden where they can do whatever they see fit to do without fear of making money to pay taxes or buy food? Do we as Man not deserve this?
Where along the way of human “development”, did we decide that all land belonged to the state? And if it doesn’t belong to the state, then why are you taxed on it? In fact, what would happen if you didn’t pay taxes on it? The government would take your land away.
Land should be available for every family who desires it to create for themselves a family domain where they can live free and happy. This would solve every problem plaguing society today. Think about it… No more crime, no more poverty, no more hunger, pollution would begin cleaning itself up, diseases would be nearly wiped out, medicinal plants would be free to all those who needed them… Free healthcare wouldn’t even be needed because no one would be sick… Obesity, gone. Diabetes, cured. Cancer, a sick thought of the past. If everyone had the best of what they needed to be healthy and happy, then what kind of world would America be then?
Let Laws be passed that provide for private land ownership without taxation, and let’s begin cleaning up the mess we’ve made of God’s creation.
Or do you already know of a way this can be accomplished? Please let me know about it.
