The Meaning of Personal Values"January 28th, 2022
Hello, everyone! I wanted to talk about the meaning of personal values, and the origins of the way people think about their actions before they take them. On social media, people are always arguing about their political ideologies, obsessing over who is right or wrong about what they believe, yet hardly any of those people show signs of actually wanting to DO anything with those ideologies, so it just ends up as noise without any purpose. When people lose their sense of empathy and self-esteem, they resort to political arguments a lot of the time because it gives them a false sense of being a positive role model. They usually base their political views on what they think makes them seem empathetic and likeable. But if they had a more personal and honest sense of love and empathy, then they wouldn't feel so attached to politics and would admit the fact that their political feelings are mostly based on just temporarily gratifying themselves. One common problem in politics is when people debate on what the "most important" problem in the world is. How can one person be able to judge not only what is most important, but also judge what the solution would be to those problems in every situation? How do they know that their idea of helping another person couldn't be perceived as HURTING that person? A lot of people fail to realize that the values and beliefs that hey grew up with are not shared with every other society out there. A lot of people say they strive for world peace without even coming to an agreement with people on what the word "world" means to them. From my perspective, there are infinite worlds out there on countless planets in the cosmos, so the idea of a human being saying that helping every human on the earth is changing the "world" doesn't make sense. A lot of the time people will say they have to change the world because they are covering up a sense of guilt and belief in their obligation. Obligation and duty are words that many great leaders have used in the past, but the idea of "obligation" is just a person's way of interpreting their own desires. There are many people who feel like it's their duty to help other people in certain areas, but it's not that they've been demanded to a task by a separate entity; it's that they naturally ENJOY helping people. Humans often fail to recognize their natural empathy. And if someone sees an issue in the world and doesn't feel interested in helping? That's again, only natural. If they don't feel interested in taking part in a cause, then they shouldn't. What is most "important" is not based on the world; it is based on the relationship between people ad their feeling for each other. Often times when people are political activists, they hone in on a specific issue because they were inflicted by it in their personal life. If you can relate to the pain of another's suffering out of your own personal experience, that is what creates a natural desire to help somebody. ----- Another thing I've noticed about people's philosophies is that they seem increasingly afraid of the idea of demanding power. People immediately think of the word "power" with a negative connotation, but it is not the kind of subject that can be judged that way. Power is always going to be a force that will exist; just that it never lasts forever for one person. But now people have been trained to feel ashamed of ever asking for it, and all that results in is the corrupt elite taking advantage of that so that more harmful people can take even more power. When they teach you that it's wrong to want power, they are manipulating your sense of empathy to make you worry if you're not being a kind enough person. Once again, people need to realize their natural sense of love and empathy. Often times people will feel like they're free without actually BEING free because they comfort themselves with certain philosophies. For example thinking "It's better than the way things used to be" or "Thing could be worse", when none of those ways of thinking are fully proven in the first place. A lot of people in this generation were influenced to start frowning upon the older ways of doing things without being educated well enough on the history of the past. There is too much of a black-and-white perspective on history and people. People can argue about what it means to be free all they want, but how many people actually take action to EARN their freedom? Another lie many of you have been taught is that freedom is a "human right" or that it is just the way things should be, but what is a "human right" anyway? People should all be free to decide for themselves what their rights are, and those beliefs will always change over time anyway. It might not sound fair, but human freedom will always have an element of having to be earned as well. Too many people are afraid of risk because they believe the old system will keep them safe, without considering that the old system is more dangerous as well. A good example of the meaning of freedom is those who choose to do everything they can to feel "safety" compared to those who take a bit of a risk. Of course, that very choice is an example of the freedom you naturally have as a piece of myself, but part of a person's freedom includes the choice to limit themselves and forget their freedom. Doing things and taking action with a bit of risk is natural; risk is always a form of what appears to be relying on chance, but sometimes it only SEEMS risky because you're making decisions that go outside of what you're used to, when the framework of how you originally thought may have actually been more risky in the first place. For example, some people take a vaccine so that they FEEL like they're probably healthy, despite still not being given a guarantee on its benefits. But others will exercise daily, pay attention to their eating habits, take vitamins, zinc, iodine, etc. and do their own research so that they can actually KNOW they are healthy. But even if taking a risk is a good idea sometimes, it's still important to acknowledge your comfort zone. ----- You are living right now through one of the biggest transitions of power there has been in a long time on this planet. Almost nobody has the full picture of what exactly is "going on" in the world, but you don't need to know about every change in order to feel comfortable. In fact, part of the way that the powers that be control people is getting them stressed and scared about what might happen, or by exaggerating how bad things really are. One of the strongest political counterforces out there is just calming down and learning to not worry about what's going to happen to you. The bifurcation of humanity has been progressing as expected; it is a slow transition, but it is taking the natural course that it needs to. There will be some ugly truths that come to light about certain public figures and the economic structure in numerous countries, but they won't seem very "ugly" and scary the more you free yourself from the older ways of thinking. Right now is a good time to simply sit back and think about what your personal values are. -Source- |
