Let us take a lesson from nature. If it were not for man running around building things do you think that we would have civilizations on this planet? Well it is a possibility but it is also unlikely. I would like to compare our social system of money with nature in hopes to get you thinking about a few things. Have you ever considered the role of money in our society? I mean really broken it down and considered the many functions it plays in society.
Let’s take a closer look and see what money has done for us. First of all the obvious exchange of money for services or objects, and second it makes our lives more convenient and is a definite improvement over barter. It is also a method of control, since the one who has the most money can control the actions of others by either offering money or threatening to withhold it. Money has been used for many evil purposes in man’s pursuit to have more. This is where the old saying “money is the root to all evil” comes from, but it also comes from the church who preached that money is bad because it makes people do bad things. Is this really the truth? Of course not, money is nothing more than a tool and like all tools can be used for mischief or good. The good that money can do is an abundant gift that serves all of mankind through its sharing.
Using nature as a comparison, do animals use money? What about trees and plants? Is a rock going to charge you $5 to stand on it or use it to build your house? Think of all the functions the cells in your body have and then ask yourself if they charge for their services! I know this seems absurd but if you were a sentient animal, say a deer, what would you think of this behavior of those humans? What did we do before money about 4000 years ago? Now that I have you thinking, let’s take this to the next level.
What if everyone continued to do as they do, but money was subtracted from the equation? Stay with me here and put down those flags. I am suggesting that if we as a society agreed that survival was for the betterment of everyone and that suffering was not necessary then money could easily be removed from the equation. How can this occur? It requires that each person understand what oneness really means, that when anyone is harmed it affects us all, this means that we are all connected in ways we are just beginning to understand. The movie “Avatar” nicely demonstrates this relationship to us. This relationship is a synergistic one where life is based on a giving and receiving that is intuitive. We can still have our cities and technology, and when we all work together we can create a heaven that is a culmination of all our dreams.
I realized this morning that it is each of us and our attitudes toward this idea that determines its viability. Let go of your mind, your doubts, your questions and consider the possibilities when you personally say, Yes. As each person says, YES, the power of this agreement builds to a point when a cascading of people saying, Yes comes over the world like a wave of YES. In our agreement comes the manifestation of our dreams.
The problem is that so many of us say No automatically without even thinking of whether we would like this or not. Our minds jump to the task of disproving this! Ask each person if they believe that each human deserves to live a life with food, water and shelter and they will most likely tell you YES. However ask them if they are willing to live so that this is possible and we get hesitation. I am no longer hesitating! I have a vision of Love for our society and over the next few days I will be putting this into words as best I can. Please hear me, anything is possible with Love. 🙂 Sequoia Elisabeth
