Life is about taking care of life is one of my favourite slogans. I like it because embraces and captures and the meaning of life, which often is lost in this complex and dark world we live in. I would like to see this as guiding phrase for myself and everyone in fact.
WAR: Just Don’t Do It. Wars have largely never been about values, ideology, or religion, but about dominance and power over control of resources. Values, ideology and religion only serve to make you and me sacrifice ourselves for wars we ourselves really have no interest in!
Don’t be fooled. Politics is about the allocation of resources—nothing else. If there were full abundance and equality, politics would disappear as irrelevant. Capitalism has a wonderful way of finding ‘durable solutions’ to manage its borders and keep permanent crises manageable, but it is utterly incapable of solving the major problems humanity is facing. I have lost almost all respect for our existing humanity because, although we know better, inequality is still rising, climate change is threatening our livelihoods globally, and indifference is incredibly widespread.
While the solutions may not be easy, they do exist, and we, as individuals, hold more power than we realize. Therefore, this blog aims to present my perspective on our world, sharing my ideas and thoughts for you to consider as you see fit.
#donoharm is simply a good ethics to follow. Life is about taking care of life, and not harming it. So think about how your actions in all your daily activities actually may impact humans and other life forms.
Anyways, there is much to say about this, and I will devote this part of my blog to explore how we through increasing our conscience about the effects of our actions actually is key to changing our world today. It is all about how we conduct our lives, our behavior and habits, and thus how we can change our current ways towards a simpler way of living.
