“I accept chaos, I’m not sure whether it accepts me.” Â Bob Dylan.
Started this week with an essay from John Hurlburt. Likewise, finishing with these thoughts from John.
Are We Confused?
Egotistically, the objective is self.
Financially, the objective is profit.
Corporately, the objective is control.
Biologically, the objective is growth.
Physically, the objective is change.
Morally, the objective is equality.
Psychologically, the objective is integrity.
Philosophically, the objective is truth.
Scientifically, the objective is fact.
Intellectually, the objective is reason.
Emotionally, the objective is balance.
Spiritually, the objective is Unity.

This confusion is reflected in the recent increase in the frequency of economic crisis happening every few years. In the past, crisis only happened decades apart. Just like the recent natural disasters which also happen quite often. You can’t dismiss them as freak incidents anymore. This is a warning to mankind!

Hi, Paul. This is excellent stuff from John. Seeing it makes me wonder whether you had already decided to post this when My Lexicon of Lunacy (An A to Z of Climate Change Denial) appeared at 4pm your time yesterday? If you had, it was a wonderful piece of synchronicity. If you had not, I am very glad to have prompted you to do so. 🙂
