Day 190: Family Dynamics - the drama continues! (part 3)

Continuing from:




The second move that I watched was very similar - I really got a good dose of American feel good drama. It is called 'The Skeleton Twins (2014)' and focuses around the relationship of a brother and sister, starting with the brother trying to commit suicide over his depression, after which the sister invites him to go stay with her and her partner. From there the story develops around his experiences - but also starts showing that the sisters life is not so perfect because again - here comes in the factor of her having affairs left right and centre and general dissatisfaction with her life, which towards the end of the movie places strain on their sibling-relationship which comes to blows and obviously towards the end in true Hollywood style they 'forgive each other' and all is good again.

Interesting, if these movies were to show 'self forgiveness' and changing Self instead of forgiving 'others' and 'moving on'- then obviously people would be bored out of their skulls and it would not be called 'entertainment' because currently our entertainment as I have indicated shows where we are within our current expression within the mind - because what entertains us shows us about what exist in each one of us. Not a pretty picture.

What stands out a lot about this second move, is how we again simply accept things, don’t question things and take life for granted. How pre-designed rules of conduct pre-determine how each person 'must' live. But what stands out clearly in both movies is that if you simply follow societal acceptable 'norms' - in the end all of these people 'secretly' rebelled against these norms and ended up causing harm to themselves and others, simply because the results of 'following' norms and acceptable behaviour had the result of for example people cheating, lying, stealing. So what came first the chicken or the egg? Meaning what came first the human as irresponsible requiring societal norms and rules, or did we as hand full of people establish rules and norms according to what appeared like normal behaviour and this has simply never been questioned. Which means that all of us are to afraid to question 'norms', are to afraid to simply say 'ok I am not happy within this relationship' or in this job etc - I want to create change for myself...' Instead we end up with things like affairs and depression and suicide - because nobody wants to change?

If we don’t change ourselves as the norms and rules and dishonesty we accept inside of ourselves but keep doing things in secret inside ourselves - then how do we ever expect for things 'out there' to get better? I mean on the surface as this movie again reminded me -we put on our best faces, pretend to be happy in our marriages etc - but behind closed doors there are whole other realities playing out for people. We are to afraid to speak up about what really exist inside of us as our secret desires and wants. Then we really act them out - but pretend we don’t. Society in 'real-time' gets harmed by what we really do to each other and ourselves -and then we claim nobody can be trusted and we continue accepting societal rules and norms! Huh?

Day 102: The Psychology of Crimes against Life: Drug use Part 6



This blog is a continuation from:


Day 101: The Psychology of Crimes against Life: Drug use Part 5

The Fear Dimension of 'the happiness-drug-user' continued.


I forgive myself for accepting and allowing the belief to exist withon me that without the drug I am nothing, therefore,

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to believe and fear that I am nothing within this world due to the existent belief within me that if I do not match the expectations and ideas by others and through my own ideas of what it means o be 'acceptable' then I am nothing.



I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to conclude within my life that if I have not by a certain age obtained a certain level of social standing, such as a specific career/qualification and/or job - then I am not valid in the eys of those who's opinions I respect,

therefore,

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to fear being rejected by others and to fear the insults I perceive others are thinking 'towards me' within their minds, which is actually me thinking that about myself, which generated judgments and belies and reactions about me towards myself - which I then project onto others.

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to fear being expressive in social situations, because I have already equated in my mind, that for me to accept others they have to dress a certain way, speak a certain way and have a certain life style - just like the celebrities and rich/famous/special people on tv, and therefore in my mind I judge others for not looking like the pictures in magazine and on tv shows, therefore

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to have fallen in my own trap of the ultimate judgment game, where I constantly judge the human - as a picture and idea from pictures and movies, and because it is impossible to live these pictures unless you have sufficient money, I perpetually exists in inner turmoil, self hate and fear of others - because no-one around me and myself included are able to fit into and as these pictures,

therefore

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to have created the self loathing trap, where as the middle and lower class I am always battling with my own self judgements, because the lower and middle class society brackets are always trying to look the part of 'celebrity/beauty/fashion/specialness' even though this standard for those who are unable to afford it, always results in inner turmoil and self loathing - where the entire middle class and lower income brackets are driven into the consumerism market to constantly spend money, and create debt to try and buy ourselves into the pictures.

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to have accepted this fear of not looking cool or special or like my fiends and therefore even though nobody wants to talk about this shared fear or not being accepted, we all simply hold onto the pictures as our safety net of self acceptance and continue to give it value as we ignore our pain and continue to move towards the pictures and ideas.

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to become a mere picture, an idea, a formation of organic matter directed by pictures into an energy experience, which is guided and directed through the corporations to the point where I will live in debt and comparison to try and appease my fears of others.

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to accept this world as one where we have to compete and try and live ourselves as the pictures we see on tv, even though in common sense I am able to see for myself that the pictures are always photoshopped and the models are always skinny and anorexic, thus showing me that the 'representatives' of 'life' as we 'know it' are misshapen, dysfunctional, ill and a lie to drive the consumer to spending money no matter what.

Day 85: Crimes against Life: Witholding the means to Live


15,500 applicants turned out for the South African traffic police fitness test for 90 jobs (file picture of unemployed South Africans). 
Seven jobseekers died and 230 collapsed after 15,500 unemployed youths took part in a fitness test in the hope of securing one of 90 jobs with South Africa's traffic police.
The massive crowd of jobseekers took part in the deadly fitness test - which was held in a football stadium - after they each received text messages informing them they had been 'shortlisted' for the precious traffic police jobs. 
They were told that they needed to complete a four kilometre (2.4 mile) jog within thirty minutes to meet the force's minimum fitness level requirement.
But by the time they started running late last Thursday afternoon, temperatures inside Pietermaritzburg's Harry Gwala football stadium had reached over 33 degrees Centigrade (91.5 degrees Fahrenheit). 
Many of the desperate jobseekers had neither eaten nor drunk anything all day. They all had very limited access to drinking water.A total of 230 people collapsed from heat exhaustion and dehydration during the run. Of these, six died.

A seventh man committed suicide by slitting his throat when he learnt he had not finished the race in time.
Among the dead was Lenny Nxumalo, 28-year-old father of two whose body was only discovered over four hours after he died when the vast crowd finally cleared out of the stadium.

Yesterday his best friend Brian Ngcobo told the local The Witness newspaper: 'My friend was so determined to become a traffic officer that he ran his life out because he was such a dedicated person.'
Another applicant, Lindelani Kubheka told the paper that he collapsed at the 'horribly disorganised' event after he ran on an empty stomach and without water.

The test was held in Pietermaritzburg's Harry Gwala stadium (pictured) where temperatures rose to 91 degrees as dehydrated and underfed applicants were told to run four kilometres in 30 minutes

South Africa's desperate youth face an effective unemployment rate of around 40 per cent and turn up in large numbers, as in this picture taken outside a factory, in search of work (file picture)
'We were starving and needed water, but the venue is isolated from fast food outlets, so it was difficult for many of us to survive the scorching heat without water and food', he said after waking up in hospital on Friday.
The tragedy is just the latest example of the problems that can occur when South Africa's desperate youth - who face an effective unemployment rate of around 40 per cent - struggle to make successes of their lives.
Government positions, such as those with the police force or army, are highly sought after as they are relatively well paid, have low entry criteria and because the application process positively discriminates in favour of blacks.
Previous 'mass job interviews' for jobs such as these have seen tens of thousands of desperately poor and ill-educated young people descend on a location in the hope of securing one of perhaps just a dozen positions.

Pietermaritzburg, the town in which the traffic police test was held, is the capital and second largest city in the province of KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa
In this latest example, over 150,000 people applied for the 90 jobs within the regional KwaZulu Natal traffic police department.
Of these, 34,000 were sent text messages on Christmas Day telling them to report to the Harry Gwala stadium in two groups on Thursday and Friday.
More than 230 applicants were taken to hospital when they collapsed during the first day's fitness test.
The politician responsible confirmed that 'more than 34,000 applicants qualified for the 90 trainee posts which were advertised', but that 'scores of them could not cope with the hot weather condition and collapsed.'
South Africa's Communist Party - which is in political alliance with the ruling African National Congress - demanded a full enquiry into the traffic police fitness test tragedy.
And the opposition Inkatha Freedom Party has called on Willies Mchunu, the politician with ultimate responsibility for the debacle, to step down.
'What happened in Pietermaritzburg was a classic display of being power-drunk, to an extent treating ordinary suffering people as subhuman.

'No one in their right mind could in the first place short-list about 35,000 people for just 90 jobs,'IFP politician Blessed Gwala said."


If one observe the last two comments of 'classic display of being power-drunk' and 'no one in their right mind' - once could extend that by stating - you have to be 'power drunk' and 'out of your mind' to continue supporting Capitalism - as it clearly shows - according to the example above - that the principle of Capitalism - firstly allowed for corporations and companies to take control of the Resources which are provided by the earth for all of the Physical, equal and one to the Earth; then through agreement between the people, as the founding principles of capitalism were established it was decided that if you do not have money you cannot gain access to Resources. Then we end up aproximately 500 years later having job shortages where in most countries you see a vast number of unemployed and minimum wage workers - who are unable at the best of times to obtain the financial means to be able to have access to these Resources.

In the example above, we see yet again the outflow and consequences of a system that might have sounded viable 500 years ago as a means to control conflicts and the development of economic wealth - but is now only about serving the rich at whatever means possible - and the extent of abuse to Life on this planet is unsurmountable. Nobody asks the question 'well if it does not work anymore why not change it?', because the human has become addicted to this game of life, where we accept ourselves as born into lives where we struggle to survive, while desiring personal wealth which comes from having what others do not have - which is all a game of the Ego. The fact of the matter is - that every day - just like in the example above, millions of people and animals are abused extensively and lead to their painful deaths - all for capitalism -all so that the average family does not have to bother asking these questions such as 'well of it aint working anymore, why not change it?'. Everybody is firstly too accepting of the abuse that exists due to capitalism, because as discussed above we have become extensively addicted to energy and the exchange of values between consumer (ourselves as the Mind) and the product (energy) and that is why no human will speak up and suggest changes to the current capitalistic system. Even in the face of harsh abuse and death to others - we still do not question why this is still a viable system to have. I ask myself the question when I read such articles - 'would I be willing to go and take the place of any one of those people' who had to die for the 'tiny chance that they might get employed' - and the question is no I do not want that for myself - therefore in common sense obviously as I see this happening to my fellow humans, I do not want it happening to any other being - and to conveniently believe that those who died deserved it - while fearing it would happen to me - as I know I do not want to give up my life for money - shows how brainwashed humanity is - because we do not see, realize and understand the principle of oneness and equality - but are merely grateful that it did not happen to us. They speak of evilnes existing as a devil or demon - but is this not the real evil we face in this world? To blatantly in ones thoughts want suffering and death for another, so that Capitalism can exist while not being willing to walk in the shoes of the other and also play the role of victim/abused. We allow such suffering around us all day - and yet every human actually reacts extensively to such stories - thinking 'please let that never be me'. What about the man/woman who died, or the animal that is suffering due to its economic value - do they not also have that same desire to live and have a dignifies life? Who are we to trade the lives of others -so that we can play our games in the Capitalistic System?


Please investigate our proposals and research into Equal Money Capitalism.

Equal Money Capitalism will be the necessary transition step to as a global society towards establishing an Equal Money System as presented at www.equalmoney.org.

We are thus here starting a project of investigating what Capitalism should be like according to its very own principles - and thus, what requires to be adjusted within the current Capitalistic system to make it a system that works for everyone.
