This is not the future

The future. It doesn't exist. It WILL exist, but it doesn't now. And when it does exist now, it's not the future anymore. For most of us, that's the way time works. It's never not now.

I've been having a lot of conversations with people about how badly - it seems - everything about the world we live in is out of date. Our brains are out of date to our society. Case and point is that we still treat romance like we live in tribes. Why do you have butterflies in your stomach? It's not like there aren't a million of other men or women, right?



Our nation is built on the industrial revolution; labor for value, when the focus of the rich have already assessed that the REAL value anymore is in attention. Whoever has the most attention has the most power. And if you think about it, if machines are replacing us for labor, wouldn't all the human jobs be to pay attention to the machines?

Don't even get me STARTED on the state of the economy and education and all that. If all the exchange of money we do is at it's meaning simply shifting debt around... dude, I'm going to drop this one. Banks are for suckers. So's the dental industry, but that's a conspiracy theory.



My point is that there are a lot of things to-day that require a HUGE update package, but we can't get one without first utterly DESTROYING what's already there. There isn't really a smooth transition. If we make a move to more efficient fueling, we have to kill a few companies. Similarly, we keep making cars and transportation in all the same ways just because redoing all the roads and obsoleting all the old cars people already have would be a nightmare. Then there's the buildings themselves. And the government. And the commerce. We live in obsolescent to such a degree that it would take a total cataclysm of our world as we know it to make the correct changes. Until then, we're smearing the grease into the shag carpet.


So that's been on my mind to-day; boycotting the federal reserve and all that other dehumanizing stuff that's for suckers. 

It's almost funny that the stage is set right now to make it easy for commerce to be moved completely to a digital medium, cause that's what makes micro-chipping feasible.  And the REASON that's funny is because most churches totally see that as the "mark of the beast."  I myself don't like the idea of mandatory chipping because of the connotations of "mandatory" and "bank."  But I like that the church is opposed, cause that means while Christians exist, mandatory chipping will not be acceptable.  Unless we all rapture out of course, then it's not my problem.



But there isn't a set way things are suppose to transpire.  And if there is, there might as well not be, cause we don't know about it.  So the thing to do is direct your attention at each moment as it comes and let to-morrow worry about itself.  Because if the future doesn't exist, then there is room for UNLIMITED INFINITE POSSIBILITY.
