Day 94: I Can’t Afford It: Commitment Statements

I commit myself to stop all points where I take an experience personally where I form and participate in an internal experience within myself, as that removes me from reality and from doing anything about reality and traps me in a pointless internal experience, that ensures that I become so hopelessly lost in thoughts/feelings/emotions toward something that I do nothing at all in actual reality, except harm my physical body which suffers the consequence of participation in energy generation utilizing its physical resources, so that I can stick to the facts as what is taking place in actual reality and find solutions that actually will lead to a more effective reality that is best for all, which would be a reality where everyone has access to what they require to live effectively.

I commit myself to realizing that the concept/notion/idea that I have ‘failed as a person’ because I am not able to afford everything I require, is a concept proliferated so that I will go into blame toward myself for my situation, and never consider/realize/look at the system where I would see that it is actually designed to not support everyone, as capitalism requires that many fail in order for a few to make profit, and thus as long as I am participating in a personal experience, I am thus fallen in the trap of a personal experience, instead of accepting what is here, meaning to stop creating conflict within myself toward the situation the currently exists, and to consider what options are actually available to me, and what actions I can take, and then actually taking what actions I can that will lead to real change, so that I have transformed myself from doing that which leads to no change, to doing that which leads to change, and thus taken a pro-active stance within no longer taking it personally, but taking self response-ability and working toward a solution.

I commit myself to exposing/showing exactly what is going on in this world, as I realize that is the only and the best way that we can sort out this world as this mess that we’ve created/are creating, so that we can actually face what we’re allowing, to be able to get an understanding of the problems and how we create them, to then be able to find solutions and implement them, and then end the abuse that we were fearing to expose in the first place.

I commit myself to not waiting for some event/situation to take place in my direct world/reality before I will even consider the abuse that is taking place, but to take a pro-active stance to educate myself and get to know my world and reality and what exactly is going on so that I can ensure that we’re manifesting a reality that is the best possible for all life, which I cannot do if I do not understand how and what I/we as humanity create here.

I commit myself to showing that we do realize the abuse that we’re creating in the world and that it is our responsibility to stop it because we are the ones allowing it and it’s those of us that is supported by the system that must take action, as we’ve allowed the majority to become enslaved to such an extent that they are not even able to take action as they are too busy with merely trying to survive from one moment to the next.

I commit myself to living the example of not taking it personally according to an idea of ‘status’ or ‘self worth’ that is based on how much money one makes/has, as all are equal in worth as life, and none is more or less than another, as we are all equally here. Within this, I commit myself to exposing how within the current system everyone does not start out on a level playing field, nor is the field at any time level, and where if you are born in lack you are almost 100% guaranteed that you will never get much beyond where you already are, and thus where you’re born largely determine what opportunities/chance one has to have a dignified life where one has adequate access to one’s needs, and thus I commit myself to living as a being with real integrity, respect, and honor for life by doing whatever it takes to stop the system which abuse life for profit and establish a system in which all can have a dignified life.

Day 24 – Babies & The Importance of Parenting

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to accept a world in which all babies are not given the best care possible from the moment they come into this world, in honor of the fact that it is the children who grow up to become the ‘future’ and determine how life is lived on this planet for all, and that depending on how the child is brought up and what their experience is they will either grow up as the caretakers or the destroyers of this world, and as we’re busy destroying this world, indicates that the children are not being effectively cared for and supported to grow into beings that care for the earth as their home.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to accept a world in which the creation of new innocent beings into the world is so disregarded that millions of babies are born into this world without proper care and into situations where there is inadequate support, so that some babies are actually busy dying from the moment they are born, when this world has plenty resources.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to accept a society in which the vast majority of parents don’t have adequate time to spend with their children.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to accept a society where there is not an effective system of support in place for all those who would be parents to give them the most effective training possible in preparation of raising a child.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to accept a society in which parents are allowed to have children and are not given any form of support in how to effectively care for a child.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to accept a society in which adequate and effective support in how to care for a child does exist but is not available to all, within this I am responsible for every child that grows up without effective support.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to accept an economic system that allows children to be born into poverty, and suffer extensively due to not having access to one’s needs such as food, water, shelter, healthcare.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to accept a system in which we do not support ourselves as adults to be able to be the most effective  parents possible, wherein we allow a system in which parents must spend most of their time working and ensuring the survival of one’s family, where we have not ensured that we have access to the best possible education and training on how to effectively care for children and ourselves, and where we do not have access to the resources required to effectively support ourselves.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to participate in glorifying the role of parenting when in this world parenting is anything but ‘glorious’ as is seen by looking at the results of parenting which is the adults that are busy with destroying each other, animals, nature and the very ecosystem we as humans depend upon.

I commit myself to establishing an economic system which gives every individual the best support and training to become effective parents, so that the children that are raised can grow into effective adults who can live to their utmost potential, and humanity can finally actually be said to ‘evolve’.

I commit myself to establishing a system that does not allow beings to become parents without adequate support and training, as to allow such would be abusive to both parent and child, and everyone, as the world is the result of who each one of has become and lives as.

I commit myself to realizing the importance of ensuring that all parents are given adequate support and education to ensure that every child that comes into this world has every opportunity to expand and grow and become beings that care for and nurture the world that has cared for and nurtured them, and will care for and nurture their children.

Day 17 - Abuse of Animals & Nature

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to accept a society in which there is no consideration for animals and nature, in which we are busy annihilating nature, right in this very moment.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to disregard the abuse of nature and animals that takes place, because I saw no one else caring for animals and nature, and thus accepted it as 'normal' to not care, even though I realized that nature and the animals is what provides us the very ability to live and exist here, and suffers through extensive abuse.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe that we as humanity are not responsible for the abuse of animals and nature that is taking place, despite the obvious fact that if we were not abusing the animals, the abuse would not be happening.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to use the behavior of animals as how they fight and kill and eat each other, as justification for accepting and allowing humanity to participate in the same behaviors, when it is obviously only a justification and we can actually decide who we will be and how we will live, and thus we can decide to live without abusing.

Within this, I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to not consider how our actions as humanity have affected and shaped the nature and behaviors of animals, where we have destroyed or taken over their habitat where they were busy living so that they had to find other ways to survive like eating each other, and thus we are actually responsible for their behaviors that have now become actually programmed into their very design as patterns of instinctual behavior that they had to develop to survive.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to not consider that we as humans are the most unlimited form that exists on earth in terms of our physical ability to do things in this world, whereas the animals are much more limited in their design, and thus we are in the best position by far to do that which the other forms here cannot, in taking care of this world and directing it into an equilibrium where all life can live and have a place and have what they need to exist here and be supported.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to allow an entire economic system to be in place, that functions for greed and profit for a only few, and makes this profit from the abuse and exploitation of nature and the animals, wherein we literally have a system that is actually designed to abuse animals and nature, the very things which give us sustenance to live and exist here, when we should be taking care of that which supports us, not recklessly abusing it into oblivion.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to not consider how different it could have been on this earth, if we had been taking responsibility from the get-go, in every way we interact with earth, nature and the animals.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe that it's not possible to stop the abuse taking place, when we are the ones causing it, and thus we obviously have the ability to stop it as we are the creators of it.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe that the abuse taking place is actually necessary and thus cannot be stopped, not realizing and considering the extreme wastefulness of the current economic system where so much of what is produced by our labor utilizing nature and the animals, is not even used, or is consumed in excessive and deliberately inefficient practices.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to not realize that we can stop the abuse by constructing a new economic system that is not based on greed and profit, but is based on actually supporting life.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to not consider that the increasing storms and violent weather is a result of nature trying to balance itself out with all the disturbance that we are creating, in our deliberate ignorance of how the system of nature of operate, which we've really had plenty of time to investigate, but we've been too busy wrapped up in our minds in consciousness and have disregarded this entire physical reality.

I commit myself to realizing and taking into consideration that my very life depends on what I receive from nature and the animals, and that I should treat nature and the animals with a respect that is equal to the importance of nature and the animals in my ability to exist and live and thrive here.

I commit myself to become educated in the physical reality and how it operates, and the delicate balances between the animals and nature, so that I can take everything into consideration as to how to give the best care to the animals and nature, which cares for me by providing me with everything I require, and makes it possible to do everything that I do.

I commit myself to show that it is possible to stop the abuse and become the caretakers of this earth, as we should always have been.

I commit myself to realizing and applying my responsibility within being a human being which is the most unlimited form on this planet and thus the only form that's in a position to really be able to shape and manipulate what is here, as evidenced by how extensively we have disrupted nature and the animals, to the point where the animals and nature have had to go to extreme lengths just to try to maintain a balance, and to use this position I am in to become a custodian of the earth, that cares for the earth, nature and the animals as it has cared for me.
