Where to Now?

If we assume that the present paradigm of Planet Earth could be measurably improved to serve the best interests of all of its inhabitants, what would YOU design as the five major operating principles?

For example, I would suggest:

1. Everyone should be properly fed, clothed, and sheltered; whether he or she chose to work or not.

2. Teaching, learning, and personal development related to non-survival-driven ways of global living would be common across all cultures, from birth.

3. Environmental preservation would be the responsonsibility of each individual, irrespective of laws or global agreements.

4. The Science of Consciousness would be the major new study of science to understand how to best govern the innovations of material science.

5. Religion, and all other systems for creating, understanding, and believing in "something" greater than one's self would be mutually supportive and spiritually compatible.

I know I'm a dreamer. But reality always starts with a dream! I sometimes wonder how many of you who read these blogs give thought to creating your own personal paradigm and proceed to live within it. I think we rarely understand the impact we, as individuals, have on the those around us. Not by any major pronouncements, but how we live our lives on a day-to-day basis. We truly make a difference in every encounter we have when we are authentic within ourselves and honest with others.

I invite you to do an experiment. Create your personal five statement paradigm and live it for only one week and see what happens. Then post it on this site. It won't take that much time! FYI, there are more than 3000 visits to this site monthly. I am confident a few of you would like to participate in this movement.

I look forward to your comments.
