โ†ฉ replying to jack
yeah what's up w that. jackjack sounds like what they call the russians with the same first and middle names. and then there are several versions of the same so they give them nicknames. it's actually johnjohn which is efram eframavich but there are big families and lots of kids all names the same thing. lmfao. so there was jack cheese and jackjack etc - and there was one they nicknamed speed because he was cropped after polio. so anyway... lmao.
Please read Max Neef's Human Scale Development. The only way we can improve society is by first raising awareness about a framework that actually works for resolving conflict and improving the well being of people. Until then we are just yelling at each other like a couple does when arguing about something that isn't actually the problem. The problem is that one of the two has an emotional need that has to be satisfied and because it isn't satisfied they have a temporal pathology and can't evaluate reality well nor make decisions well.
When we grow a garden it is obvious to us that understanding the needs of the plants is everything, because we know satisfying them what growing a garden is all about. That is how we will have healthy plants and a beautiful garden. Why then, when it comes to people, communities and society, we completely ignore fundamental human needs? Plants aren't emotional nor psychological, but humans are very much so. Naturally many of our needs are emotional and psychological. They aren't any less real or less important because they aren't material. The non-material is just as real the material. This realization is a large part of spiritual awakening. Spirit is another word for non-material. Attitude, knowledge and relationships are all non-material and no less important than the food we eat and the house we live in. Please look up Max Neef's fundamental human needs and help raise awareness about them.
