Work

Work is the output of energy. Energy comes in many forms; changing the form of energy comes with a net loss of output. At this point, most people work for a living to keep a roof over their head and food on the table, but the satisfaction that we draw from the work is not fulfilling spiritually, emotionally or physically.

The current system gives us two patterns, identify with a group or look howdt for yourself. We need both. Currently, life comes with reliance on the infrastructure. It is the way we were taught and is really all we know. There are many false realities embedded in the structure; the actions that we as individuals take seem more to the benefit of the political overstructure than to our individual well-being. Those of us who feel spiritually connected emphasize positive contribution and constructive criticism, but often it is taken wrong. Many people feel like they need to vent negative emotions at other people, which brings everybody down a notch. We should promote diversity of opinion and try to look at novel approaches to the same old problems.

Part of what we lack is the administration and staff to accomplish the work. Too many chiefs and very few indians. People that facilitate work have been getting dumped on for so long, that they really do not exist any longer - there is a serious disconnect between doing things the way they have always been done and doing things that work to produce the desired goals. Setting realistic goals is difficult, because people do not know what to do. Life is overwhelming.

Rural areas do not have the economic capacity concentrated to get rolling, especially with fuel energy prices skyrocketing. The people are spread out and living in their own little worlds, trying to keep up. Cities require food delivery, which is grown in rural areas and transported to urban areas. Since corporate agriculture requires profits based on growth, the net flow of material is out of the cyclic loops and into linear growth. Water and aerable lands are the key - how do we keep these in production?

A new systems approach to work is required. Resources need to support communities that produce viable work - corporations only support profit making. Chasing the money is not sustainable and is wreaking havoc with our harmonics. Time for thinking deeply about a better wholesale approach.
