There are many different cultures and beliefs here on planet earth. The ones we believe in or live by are likely the ones that the people around us did when we were growing up.
I have talked about large groups of people believing in something that just isn’t so – the “madness of crowds” – and I am part of one of those crowds. We all are.
The world is flat, a man can’t fly, phones need cords, and people should be like this or that…
Questioning models of thought honestly without the heavy influence of the myriad of biases and beliefs we all picked up along the way is the basis of real problem-solving and breakthroughs.
Accepting reality is a good place to start.
Great inspirations as always Larry, thank you for being you! I like to look at people in the sense that everyone just wants their family to be ok, to strive for something better, to be loved, to love, to eat, and have safe shelter. When you look at humans under that guise, we are all the same and equal, no matter our colour or structure of beliefs… those are all self imposed and to some degree meaningless … just have to strip away the “sins”, the greed, the religion and the biases, and we are all the same, especially in the eyes of nature. All humanity’s issues are caused by those who want or try to control others for their own selfish benefit. The “sins” are the tools of their trade. We are all the same, and want the same things. Good to help out where we can, whomever we can. When we are strong, we can make others around us strong, and make our communities strong, which makes a culture strong. Have a great day everyone, no judging today, free the mind and let enlightenment in. ?
