<description>&#60;p&#62;Wow, I thought that was brilliant. Just fucking brilliant. So James, how are people going to survive after that? Why the good old fashioned way. We have our history to rely on. The history of how artisans and labourers made what is that we have now. OK so how the fuck do we survive? Well nothing changes at all at first. People live their lives in awareness. That will be hard. It will be hard on all of us. People waking up may not necissarly be pretty. It will be a rough ride. But there is a goal. To be prepared. December 21 2012 will be a day that lives in infamy. Whatever happens or doesn't happen will be the most prepared day in HUMAN HISTORY.

<description>&#60;p&#62;Some people are talking about armeggedon happening during the presidency of Barack Obama. In my mind, this is the truth. This world is at an impasse. That's right, don't even think of living the same way after October 8th 2010. The first phase will be &#34;preparation&#34;. After people world wide wake up on that day, there will be an urge to ready humanity for 2012 December 21. It was written in the sky and I prophecize this. The year 2012, December 21st will be the ultimate test of humanity; to begin again, or to carry on. The end a new beginning or not.&#60;br /&#62;
AND SO YOU SHALL ALL BE AWARE. AND YOU WILL NEVER LET DIE THE TRUTH.

<description>&#60;p&#62;There is a threshold where human performance goes between lazy and productive, and this varies from person to person. It is safe to say that there are portions of society that are naturally predisposed to being their average at their capabilites.&#60;br /&#62;
The fabric of society in most first world countries is capitalist and therefore class based societies. To keep things simple we divide our people into three categories. It is safe to say that capabilities and drive do not necessitate movement through class. Rather environment, social behaviour, and connectedness to wealth matched with intellect and drive determine a person's social standing. The problem with class based societies is that productive and intelligent people can be stuck at a lower standing because of predjudice. All people are created equal so say the right's advocates, but an equal truth is that all people are not.&#60;br /&#62;
Where people end up is pretty much a matter of some variation of the above state constraints.&#60;br /&#62;
In other societies such as communist ones, there seems to have been a failure in every instance of such societies, as the goal of equality and quality of life is passed over by power and corruption. Teamed with a tendancy to build a large military as it complements the communist ideal, human rights abuses are predominant, and injustice frequent.&#60;br /&#62;
In arab culture, a male dominated society reigns which varies from arab nation to arab nation. In the most reprehensible arab societies, women are treated with physical and mental brutality. The core of Islam is the Koran, and it is veritably a text of truth and good. Albeit, appendages were made to it, the core is revealed in the first few pages. There is absolutely no way shape or form that carelessness for human life be so rooted in God's will, nor that the dissemination of said truth is not convoluted. Arab nations in the middle east are fraught with ignorance and blind faith in masters of religion who contril the collective sentiment. The presence of Israel in a parcel of the mediteranean is nothing but confrontational. Jews should leave the holy land, for it will always be there, and will never lose it's relevance to many religions. The continued exchanges of violence between Isreal and the Paldstinians, along with Lebanon demonstrate only an unending disolution of the right thing to do.&#60;br /&#62;
In Africa the deserts are growing, lakes and rivers are drying, species are dying, and too many extraordinarily evil executions of insanity have been undertaken. African people need combined strength and unity, and tribal pasts need be set aside for a productive way to function. Assistance is largely needed, and truthfully, there is no reason for any African to die of starvation given the abundance in the world.&#60;br /&#62;
For this world to truly function as one efficient unit we have a long way to go. We have to work at coming together without the role of governments, to take the bridal and steer and speed up the pace toward a future of awake and aware, conscious, caring, loving, believing, healing, helping, growing, learning, people.&#60;br /&#62;
We have the infinite future ahead of us, and we all have the potential to understand the value of truth and all that brings.&#60;br /&#62;
Efficiency is key. Newer efficient means of communication can surmount our greatest detriment. We need to get the right message across as quickly as possible using whatever senses we have. Our children are genetically bright. They can handle more, and with our technology, our rate of progress, our vision, and our love to save and keep all humankind they may restore the balance. Truth can be told and games can cease. There are better ways to take care of ourselves. All of us here on earth.&#60;br /&#62;
Set aside a place for those who wish to separate. But only one.&#60;br /&#62;
Some would argue that man has no place dabbling in the will of the ancients. That a second birth is key to life. There always was the one way. Made right from the getgo, by the intelligence of humankind in this lifetime we can pull it all together.

<description>&#60;p&#62;Not until the day when you give it all to God, and this isn't religion, it's a natural unfolding process. The day you give your life to God is the day you are reborn. I wish someone could have told me this a long time ago. I don't buy the status quo, and I love art and expression. Why does it mean the music died that day Don McLean? Is there a vision of an inextricably changed humanity?&#60;br /&#62;
I believe in heaven and hell because other people believe in it. So I believe in angels and demons, and the day you confirm that it's all on earth, you have to wonder why we play this game... what's her name? Love? She's an Angel!&#60;br /&#62;
You wouldn't believe how much of a soul I have. I've dared to call myself messiah because I know something about humanity that truly is life changing and if I share it with all of you, You WILL believe me. Because when I am standing on solid ground and speaking truth and only truth, then you will acknowledge, and we will know that we all share the same instructions. We are all animals on a rock, and no matter how sophisticated we think we are, we are subject to existance, and our relationship with existance determines how long we stay in it.&#60;br /&#62;
I speak to the most brilliant mind. I speak to the biggest tree hugger. I speak to mother and father. I speak to children. I ask the old to stand by.&#60;br /&#62;
There's a fuck load of lies that can be undone in a day. Cause if you share the same understanding of love, God, what's good, what's right, what's change, what's, aboveall, true, you'll never stop pushing.&#60;br /&#62;
It's passion for LIFE. Human intelligence rising above strangleholding seemingly stronger entities.&#60;br /&#62;
If you could say right now that you would die to defend the freedom that you've realized is the Omega, then you could undo the damage in a time-conscious, efficient and aafety-minded fashion that would be priceless for sure, and humanity would forever remember you for it. I promise you there is an infinite presence of something undeniable, one thing.. this universe.

<description>&#60;p&#62;as Karen has the Tao, Butterfly Magic has Tolle, so do I have a book I enjoy reading...&#60;br /&#62;
it is:&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;&#60;em&#62;Astonish Yourself! 101 Experiments In The Philosophy Of Everyday Life&#60;/em&#62;&#60;br /&#62;
by Roger-Pol Droit&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;it is a French book, with a lovely English translation. it illustrates 101 methods of changing the way you perceive everyday life, from emptying words of their meanings to &#34;calling yourself&#34; in a dark room.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I thought it would be interesting to post one of the experiments so that others might see if it is a book they're interested in.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;#5 &#60;em&#62;See The Stars Below You&#60;/em&#62;&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Duration: 30 to 60 minutes&#60;br /&#62;
Props:    a starry sky&#60;br /&#62;
Effect:   cosmic&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Preferably a summer night. There should be no clouds. Even better if you have a garden, where you can lie out somewhere dry, and with an hour or so free in front of you.&#60;br /&#62;
     So there you are on your back. You look up at the stars, their infinite number and their far-flung strangeness. You must try to feel both awed and relaxed, taken up into the mysterious and reassuring presence of the night.&#60;br /&#62;
     The scene bristles with clichés: the milky softness, the warm darkness, the twinkling that makes us feel so small. All the conventions are in place. Above all, don't hold back; plunge right up to your neck in them.&#60;br /&#62;
     Take the necessary time, and wait until you get the feeling you are riveted to the ground, almost crushed by that immensity, a tiny dot with all of infinity above you.&#60;br /&#62;
     The experiment consists simply in overturning the universe. Little by little you will now convince yourself that the stars you are watching are below you. You are overlooking them. A massive force keeps you on the earth. But the vast sky is down below. You are flying over that abyss of stars, into which you risk falling forever.&#60;br /&#62;
     It won't work immediately. Some time for adaptation is necessary, and a floating state of reverie is better than a conscious effort. The process is similar in kind to looking at three-dimensional drawings. For a long time you remain there looking at a flat sheet covered with signs that not only look flat but incomprehensible. You have to put up with the waiting. And then suddenly, the whole thing opens up.&#60;br /&#62;
     You really feel that everything is below you.&#60;br /&#62;
     It would take nothing, a sudden gust, a brief failure of gravity, possibly even a momentary lapse of attention, and there you are, floating off very slowly, between the earth and nothingness, traveling down the sky.&#60;br /&#62;
     When you get up, do so slowly - and mind your step.

you can take the test &#60;a href=&#34;http://www.9types.com/rheti/homepage.actual.html&#34;&#62;here&#60;/a&#62;.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;my result was a &#60;em&#62;Type 4 (Romantic):&#60;/em&#62;&#60;br /&#62;
&#60;em&#62;&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;ul&#62;&#60;strong&#62;World View:&#60;/strong&#62; Something's missing. Others have it. I'm different from them because I don't.&#60;/ul&#62;
&#60;ul&#62;&#60;strong&#62;Basic Desire:&#60;/strong&#62; to understand self&#60;/ul&#62;

<description>&#60;p&#62;Halibut, here's what it saysabout us under 'Champion Idealists'. (I've already posted the basic stuff in my first response.)&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;blockquote&#62;&#60;p&#62;Champions are introspective, cooperative, informative, and expressive. Champions have a strong desire to make their thoughts known to the world. When Champions speak or write, they are often hoping to use their convictions to motivate others to participate in advocacy or they hope to reveal a hidden truth about the human experience. Champions are greatly concerned with ethics and justice and have a strong desire to speak about current issues and events. They are the most inspiring and animated of the role variants.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Champions are very individualistic and they feel a need to experience significant social events. Champions consider intense emotional experiences to be vital to life and view the world as a drama. They are constantly seeking to learn about everything that has to do with advancement of good and the retreat of evil in the world.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Champions are keen observers of the people around them. They have exceptional intuitive abilities and are capable of intensely concentrating on a particular individual. Champions are often able to read hidden emotions and to place significance on the actions of others. Champions are constantly scanning their social environment and intriguing characters are not likely to escape their attention. Their attention is usually active rather than passive. Champions are sensitive and alert to what is possible.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Champions are warm, energetic, spontaneous, positive, exuberant and dramatic. Other individuals usually find these personality qualities to be attractive and often want to be in the company of Champions. Champions usually have good people skills and get along well with their colleagues.&#60;/p&#62;&#60;/blockquote&#62;</description>

<description>&#60;p&#62;Me? ENFP (Extrovert - 61%; iNtuitive - 55%; Feeling - 85%; Perceiving - 68%)&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;blockquote&#62;&#60;p&#62;ENFPs are initiators of change who are keenly perceptive of possibilities, and who energize and stimulate through their contagious enthusiasm. They prefer the start-up phase of a project or relationship, and are tireless in the pursuit of new-found interests. ENFPs are able to anticipate the needs of others and to offer them needed help and appreciation. They bring zest, joy, liveliness, and fun to all aspects of their lives. They are at their best in situations that are fluid and changing, and that allow them to express their creativity and use their charisma. They tend to idealize people, and can be disappointed when reality fails to fulfill their expectations. They are easily frustrated if a project requires a great deal of follow up or attention to detail.&#60;/p&#62;&#60;/blockquote&#62;</description>

<description>&#60;p&#62;Ok, so I'll start off...&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;My type is the &#60;strong&#62;INTJ&#60;/strong&#62;. A brief description of the INTJ:&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;&#60;em&#62;&#34;INTJs are strong individualists who seek new angles or novel ways of looking at things. They enjoy coming to new understandings. They are insightful and mentally quick; however, this mental quickness may not always be outwardly apparent to others since they keep a great deal to themselves. They are very determined people who trust their vision of the possibilities, regardless of what others think. They may even be considered the most independent of all of the sixteen personality types. INTJs are at their best in quietly and firmly developing their ideas, theories, and principles.&#34;&#60;/em&#62;&#60;/p&#62;

<description>&#60;p&#62;Thought this would be a cool thing for everyone to do. Perhaps you've heard of the Myers-Briggs Personality Type Indicator. It is a personality assessment designed to identify certain psychological differences according to the typological theories of Carl Gustav Jung. I thought that perhaps we could all take the short test, and then report back as to which type we all are. I think it would be a neat way to get to know your fellow GC posters...&#60;/p&#62;

<description>&#60;p&#62;This isn't just about being green, it's so much bigger than that.  Isn't it ultimately about being universally aware?  We are all connected.  We all need the same basic necessities, regardless of who you are, and where you're from.  How do we get more people aware of this very connection to help everyone globally?

<description>&#60;p&#62;&#60;strong&#62;I am&#60;/strong&#62; thinking... questioning. Before though, before mind, &#60;strong&#62;I am&#60;/strong&#62;... being?&#60;br /&#62;
I am that which is conscious of thinking, conscious of manifesting self... No-thingness. Potential.&#60;br /&#62;
Empty of everything I manifest, before mind, before thought, I am... energy.&#60;br /&#62;
I manifest as physical, separated from the energy which surrounds me, yet connected to it. We are the same.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Consciousness? 'Self'-consciousness. Confused.&#60;br /&#62;
Puzzled by this mystery we call life. Did I manifest you when I manifested self? When the phone rings and I answer, that person on the other end of the call experience the same conversation I do. Ahhh... Co-creators then! We manifest together. We are the same.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Do the birds and the trees puzzle over such things? They have consciousness, but I think it is a different consciousness than mine. Is yours different than mine? Essentially I think not. We are the same.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Here's what I (think I)know: I am energy. I have a physical presence which you can perceive, recognise, touch. My physical body and this thing we call 'persona' causes my distinctness. This is what I recognise as my 'self'. The more attached I am to this 'self' the further from 'we are the same' I am. An yet, we are the same, even in that.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Co-creators. I can send you energy and you will feel it. Sand often tunes into me, and I feel it, as does Butterfly.I send energy out often, to many places, people, animals... My intention is to create wholeness, wellness, peace. Yet others in this world would bring about its destruction. Are they less conscious of our creative roles than 'me', or do they simply not care? I prefer to think they are somehow less conscious - because in that thought there is hope.&#60;br /&#62;
But what does it matter? Why do I concern myself with such things? I came from nature, I will return to nature. 'My' energy will regain 'before mind' being. As will yours, as will the tree and the bird. We are the same.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Is it the survival imperative at work?&#60;br /&#62;
This living, breathing planet, the beautiful Gaia, will survive humanity, even if humanity brings about its own end. Vegetation will regrow, new species will evolve... life will go on.&#60;br /&#62;
And 'I' will return to energy.&#60;br /&#62;
Yet something about this whole process seems pressing and vital. We must stop this insane destruction! We must respect that which gives us life, Gaia. We must honour those others we share this planet with. They are not resources, they are energy manifest in physical form. We are the same!&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Life is a gift when it's not spent in pursuit of 'self' interest.&#60;br /&#62;
We are angels without wings... Time to wake up now, and remember (&#60;em&#62;premember!&#60;/em&#62; ;o]).
