Who's WEALTHY?


The Word "WEALTHY"


Wealth is not about some having more than another while some have less than another. 

We are talking about the Earth's Body. 

ALL the ORGAN-isms  in that body can have the basic necessities to survive. 

The earth gave equally for all.

It is about all having the basic necessities to survive - so we are able to express ourselves in this world.

WE as ALl  as THOU as You

In this blog, I want to explore the birth control pill and its role in women's lives referencing my experience when I was growing up.

The women in our community visited the municipal health office when they have a problem with health care issues. When they get sick or any of their family members get sick, they get free medicine from the health office.  Sometimes, the supply was limited so the women were unable to be treated. They do not have any health care coverage insurance or anything like that since they were not employed. It's worth mentioning here that even those employed did not have it.

Most of them also visited the health care center to get some birth control pills. My mom was a municipal health employee and I came with her sometimes to visit her office. She gave these women some birth control pills to keep them from getting pregnant. Most of the pills being distributed at that time came from the government. Most of them contained estrogen, the female hormone. Sometimes she gave them IUD (Intra Uterine Device) and with the help of her uncle who was the municipal health doctor, they tried to advice the women to plan the number of children they want to have.

When I got married, I also found myself searching for birth control pills after 3 kids. I accepted the 'pill culture ' without questioning the role of the pill or the chemicals in it like estrogen being introduced in my body which can affect my overall health.  I only became aware of my irresponsibility while talking to someone recently who wanted to take estrogen to soften ones skin. I pointed out that the body will be affected by this and as I was saying these words, I remembered myself using the birth control pill that has estrogen in it when I was having unplanned pregnancies. Like him, I too did not look at how it will affect my body's overall functioning. I was humbled by the realization and forgave myself.

The role of birth control pills in our community was only to prevent pregnancy so that men and women can partake in sexual pleasure - that could potentially stop boredom and anguish in an uncertain world. They hoped this will stop them (rich or poor) from being lonely or 'feeling alone' in a relationship. The pill will also release the 'burden' of taking responsibility for financially supporting kids after birth. This was accepted as if this was the 'solution'. It was as if sex had no other purpose other than to satisfy a desire for pleasure.

Sex as physical interaction of 2 bodies without desire for pleasure but is being used to support the physical body - was unheard of.

In the absence of money, tv, movies, etc., what do you do at night when there's no electricity, to entertain yourself?
Have sex and make babies.

Is that logic or fuzzy logic?

That is fuzzy logic, yet it was accepted and allowed in the form of jokes. In this small town where I grew up, no one dared to ask. It just became a part of our community jokes. I heard many people including my mom and grandmother say this joke over and over again. I ended up saying it and everyone in my family started saying it. So, I interpreted this as if it was okay to make jokes out of problems and just laugh it off rather than provide an effective solution that will benefit everyone in the community. There were no factual answers given nor was there a resolution to end the problem. The easiest way for them to solve the problem is for them to give birth control pills to the women in the community.


But if we look at the common sense behind it, we can pinpoint the problem and educate the women about the role of sex, how many children one can plan to have in a family that will be mutually beneficial for the family and community. Developing businesses which can assist women and men in the community to get income so they can support the family can also help. But what can really help is a basic income guarantee that will provide monthly income - as unconditional guaranteed support for everyone including children who will be born in this world from birth to death that is currently being looked at in other European countries like Sweden and Norway.

Lessons I Learned From My Daughter's Stay: Comfort Equals Money


We are travelling to see my daughter who is visiting North Carolina from the Philippines for a week for work training.

It is very interesting that after travelling for 4 hrs. we can sleep and rest at a motel for $62. We still have to travel 10 hrs. tomorrow from Malvern, Arkansas to Tennessee then to our final destination - Asheville, North Carolina, where we will pick-up my daughter from the airport.

That is how much we pay for comfort. We can sleep in the car and be uncomfortable for no money but we choose to be comfortable for the night and pay the fee.

Comfort = money

This is why we have to earn more money. The homeless and the poor in the streets of LA, Dallas, the Philippines etc. cannot afford this comfort. The ones with money can.

We avoid discomfort but with no money, we do not have a choice.

It would be cool to see every human able to afford a comfortable home where they can rest and enjoy a good nights sleep.

The 'I Am Poor' Mind Pattern: Voiceless Part 2


Youtube Link

Mind Pattern

>I am powerless without money 
>I do not have a voice 
>Please pity me 
>give me alms or charity in cash or in kind

The fact is, without money we cannot have the basic necessities to survive. 
Here, I am looking at a belief that If I do not have money, I do not have a voice, therefore powerless.
Here, there is a desire to be pitied and to receive alms or charity.

Wanting to be pitied and accepting less than what we are worth, like alms or charity is not good enough. We are all parts of this one life so we have equal rights to the resources given to us equally by the earth - we have to speak up and rewrite this mind pattern and create a world that guarantees survival for all.

===
I will rewrite this pattern by using self-forgiveness, redefining words and writing a self-correction script - using a commitment statement to correct myself in every moment - when I see myself getting into this pattern.
===

What is Self-forgiveness? 


It is the process by which an individual forgives oneself for accepting and allowing self to separate from objective reality, releasing positive and negative value judgments such as good or bad, right or wrong, positive or negative - as subjective interpretations of reality regarding something or someone that leads to stability as breath. 

Self-forgiveness Statements:

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe that I do not have a voice and that because I have no money, I am powerless - rather than see, realize and understand that money is distributed unequally - others receive more and others receive less - so it is for me to  assist and support a system where all have the basic necessities to survive - starting with a living income guarantee - supporting equality.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to desire to be pitied believing that that will make others give me a little bit of money so I can survive, instead of seeing and realizing that - I am giving myself a value that is less than life - by being someone who needs charity to survive - rather than giving myself a value equal to life - someone who is part of the whole - that is life, one who has the right to receive equal resources from the earth - and one who has the right to receive an amount of money that guarantees survival from birth to death.

Correction Script

I commit myself to blog and speak about the problems of inequality and the solutions available  -  to pave the way for a society that aligns its expression to the expression of life, where the main principle of life is the basis of its social policy and decisions - 'what is best for all'.

I commit myself to redefine the word 'poor' 

Phoenetics
From
POO-p of the earth, grrr-R

To
P-ossibility and O-pportunity O-ccuring for us to take R-esponsibility
===

Redefinition

From 
Deserving or inciting pity

To
Deserving a living income and guaranteed survival from birth to death

Redefining The Word Poverty




The Word 'Poverty'

The mind meaning of the word within the sound i associated it with is:

P-oor o-VERT-l-Y (overtly or observably)  being robbed of their share 

I am correcting myself within my use of this word and redefining the word, as i have used this word within my own interpretation of poverty - where i was directed by my emotions - so that i used it in a biased way disregarding the real meaning of the word - the essence of the word.

Redefinition

P-oor OVERT-l-Y (overtly or observably) being given their share 

Dictionary meaning: The state of having little or no money and few or no material possessions

This is a limited definition so i am going to redefine this by adding some perspective on the consequence outflow of poverty:

Poverty is the state of having little or no material possession as they are being robbed of their share to the resources given by the earth for all to survive in dignity. 

This results in crime, child prostitution, physical suffering, inability to get medical attention, inability to get education etc.

It is to realize that if we continue to disregard the poverty in society that we will eventually face it because it will be presenting itself again and again.

We had been trying to solve poverty for a long time, yet we have not come up with a workable solution that will stop it from its roots, otherwise, we will all loose.

This will affect all of us eventually as this will result to an unbalanced economy which will be full of corruption, crime, prostitution etc.

The fear to survive in a world where there's a big gap between the rich and the poor, in a world where there's inequality, where we see the poor not having food to eat while the rich can choose what food to eat will make us react in many different ways which will eventually result to stress.

The body is being abused within this, as within the body's reaction to fear in the form of stress, physical energy is transformed into mind energy for the mind to use, so eventually this will breed diseases that will remind us of what we accept and allow and the consequence we will have to face.

I suggest to look at the solution to stop poverty - Basic/Living Income, Guaranteed from birth to death so all will survive in dignity.

Paranoia for Beauty:Seeing Through The Eyes of Equality: Part 2 Self Correction Day 310






This is a continuation of This Blog:
http://junejourneytolife.blogspot.com/2013/06/the-paranoia-of-remembering-information.html

In the previous blog i did self-forgiveness for 
my fear of seeing that which i perceived as 'ugly' 
as negativity, poverty, suffering, pain etc.
wanting to see only that which is beautiful, happy, blissful, positive
within my mind

In this blog, i will do a commitment 
a self-correction script
to rewrite the script within myself 
one that i can apply in my living
to guide me to live life based on the principle of
what is best for all

realizing what is best for all is also what is best for me

Commitment
Self-Correction Script:

I commit myself to when and as i see myself
fearing to see  what is here
desiring a positive energy experience
from what i see
defining forms/texture/shape within my definition
of what is 'ugly' and what is 'beautiful'
within an alternate reality
somewhere 'out there'
other than here

I stop
I breathe

I realized this is me as the mind interpreting what i see
instead of seeing what is here

I assist myself to stay with the pulse of my heart
wake me up to what is here
stabilize myself here - as breath
stop the ooohs and ahhhs
and just enjoy what is here
as equal to my expression

I commit myself to when and as i see myself doubting who i am
within what i see
uncertain of whether i am the one having a positive experience or a neutra or a negative one
or the one who is here in every moment  - stable as breath

I stop
I breathe

I assist myself to  release the charge i have given the word
'beauty' and the word 'eyes'
redefine the words and live it
as equal to my expression

I commit myself to when and as i see myself
blaming the physical for creating beauty and ugliness
the consequence outflow of that
blaming the body for malfunctiong, getting sick or dying
blaming the physical existence for creating poverty, pain, negativity, suffering 
and inequality

I stop
I breathe

I realized this is me as the mind
blaming the physical 
instead of realizing it is me
as the mind 
within desiring a positive energy experience 
through what i see - as forms etc.
fearing a negative energy experience
closing my eyes to the suffering, poverty, pain around me
instead of providing practical solutions

I assist myself to stabilize me as breath
remain with the pulse of my heart
wake me up to what is real
as what is here
embrace the poverty, pain and suffering
and take self-responsibility 
for what i accepted and allowed
in 'my within' as the mind
and in 'my without' as this world system

I commit myself  to when and as i see myself 
having the excucse that 
'i have to survive as someone
who always see beauty
positivity, happiness and bliss' 
or
as someone who never wants to see 'ugliness' within my mind

I stop
I breathe

I realized this is me as the mind desiring a positive energy experience
believing that seeing only what i perceived as 'beautiful' 
will make me survive  
as a personality  
believing that because i will always feel good this way
and also look good because i will always be smiling
this is a better state of mind for me to be in

instead of realizing that 
it is me as the personality that i created within my mind
fearing to look at what i perceived as ugliness
while
people are suffering 
for real

denying what is here

it is to realize that 
we have to look at the problem 
and identify the problem
to provide a solution that is best for all

the real balance within living as equals

initially within supporting BIG (Basic Income Grant) 

and eventually
living as equals in a world that truly honors life
the poor being given access 
to all the basic necessities they need to live a decent life

so instead of me fearing survival in a world of inequality
provide a solution so everyone will have guaranteed survival

and see reality as what it is

balanced - as equals living this one life

I commit myself to when and as i see myself justifying the excuse that i have to survive
as someone who always see beauty 
to be whole

I stop
I breathe

I realized this is me as the mind
wanting to be whole 
within denying the existence of that which i perceived as 'ugly'
desiring only to see what i perceived as 'beautiful'

instead of realizing this is balance in polarity - within 'beauty and ugliness'

It is to realize that real wholeness does not need separation from the source

It is not separating from all - as an individual 
concerned only about my own interest - as self-interest

desiring only that which i perceived as having a positive value 
an idea i created within my mind

instead of realizing
real wholeness does not need separation from the source

It is about
living as equals - as who we really are
as Team Life
the group of cells that are living here
as all parts of me - as LIFE
all birthed in this one life

the point of equality
that we have to practically live

All living according to the primary principle of Life

as

What Is Best For All
