Dooming? Where is the doom? This is a short and dirty analysis of a phenomenon and a call to change our ways in which we conduct our business.
And, as participant in a process called economic life, you, me, others, we are personally responsible for what we allow to happen. We have always three options:
- Say no.
- Say yes.
- Say nothing.
This is the essence of freedom, of being sovereign. However, there is another dimension. For freedom to reign, virtue is required. See: Farewell Address of George Washington 1793.
And yes, the world is full of bling bling. Yes, we were influenced to consider the bling bling this world has to offer. Who offered it? Those who would deceive, commit fraud.
Accepting the fact of having let that happen, is the first step in remediating the issue. Why? Because you are hurting yourself in the first place by playing along with fraud and deceit. The system would love for us to consider ourselves as an economic being. And true, we do make economic decisions, but it does not mean we are an economic being. Positing you to be an economic being solely, degrades you, dehumanizes you.
Now, you see the nature of the Federal Reserve Note, the question is: would you continue to conduct your business with such dishonest means? How honorable are you?
See, once you stop playing their game, their game is up.
You mentioned a book, that provides a narrative on certain stories. While technically interesting, for the purpose of my post, I am not interested in what this man has to say. The source material in the Homeric Epos: Iliad and Odyssey are of such nature, a thinking man can draw his own conclusions.
If you had read the Iliad, you would have known that the Camp of King Agamemnon was visited time and again with the Plague, whereas the Trojans were spared such a disaster. It is easy to see the persuasion of giving the Trojans a taste.
This dishonesty of Ulysses caused the Odyssey: another 10 years before coming home. On the level of the personal journey of a man, indeed, it may take a long time and a lot of anguish before we come home to our selves.
And this then is also geared towards your first command: STOP dooming. I will mirror your choice of words: STOP acting dishonorably.
