Society has changed, how much has been lost... (WEEK 170)

"I wanted to change the world. But I have discovered that the only thing one can be sure of changing is oneself".

-Aldous Huxley

It is natural and good that changes occur, both in ourselves and in others, even nature changes. That's good, you get better, you evolve, you become better.

But there are certain changes, perhaps driven by certain people, with certain power or perhaps the change is in general but brings negative consequences for each of the human beings and for the rest.

This topic that @galenkp brought us this week, caught my attention, because today we live in a very different society than when for example I was a child.

Many things have changed in the world society, many things indeed.
But there are some things that I wish had not changed.

The first of these is the lack of tolerance and the loss of respect that we see nowadays.

People for various reasons are less understanding of each other, and everyone has their own learning and maturing times. Couples do not tolerate each other, there is no patience and they end up separated, to give an example.

Respect has been lost, for beliefs, for thinking differently, for acting or choosing different paths. Everyone has to do the same, according to social standards, and this is not or should not be the case.

Everyone should have the right, without being judged, to make this or that decision, especially if it concerns only that person and does not harm anyone else.

However, "different" people are looked down upon, disrespected or not tolerated.

Who says what is different? Who...

There is a lot of finger-pointing, accusations, mockery, a lot of lack of understanding.

And today this is much more noticeable, it is exacerbated, on a large scale. There is no harmony, people are irritable and do not consider that we are all different, with our times, our different personalities and ways of thinking.

The second thing that has changed in our society, in my opinion, not in all people, but in many, is the loss of a critical sense, thinking for oneself, questioning things and not blindly believing every news item or topic that is exposed for example in the media.

The media has become a mind trap, and I see people endlessly repeating what the media says, without questioning, without asking questions, as if they were zombies.

And I have discovered many lies in the media, too many.

Even things have been said that are out of all logic and rationality. However, I hear family and friends repeating such news as true, without thinking, if they did they would see that there is no truth or logic whatsoever.

It is a collective thinking, mass thinking, as if everyone was walking in the same direction without looking at the sides, without looking at other options, without seeing that there are nuances and colours.

It is not even necessary to have scientific or highly qualified knowledge to reason certain questions... the majority simply does not question, does not think.

What happened to human beings? They just live on automatic without being able to have control of their lives.

The third issue or thing that has changed, but not less important, on the contrary, I think it is too important, is the love for oneself and for nature.

As I said before, this does not apply to 100% of the world's population, but it is getting worse and worse.

We are part of nature, and nature is part of us, and this lack of love for ourselves has repercussions for us and for others.

The disasters and aberrations committed against nature, forests, seas, jungles, is atrocious. Nature lives and reacts and will continue to react in response.

Action and reaction, cause and effect. Such is the law of life.

And the worst thing of all is that because of this numbness of the population, the great and the superior are allowed to do sad things against nature and against ourselves. Freedom has been taken away from nature as much as from us, but the answer is only silence.

I often feel like a madwoman for going against the current. But I am awake and it is important that others are too.

Love is the most powerful force, where is the love in our lives?

Do we stop to look at a flower, the tear of a human being, the cry of a child for lack of food, the dry leaves in autumn?

Do we know how to listen to the trill of a bird at dawn, the roaring waves of the sea, a plea for understanding, do we know how to listen?

Has that connection to the whole been lost, I wonder if it ever was, I want to believe it was.

If we love each other, if we really love each other it expands like an incredible force and spreads to others and to the earth that shelters us. In love there is no room for bad thoughts, destructive thoughts... let's change from the inside out and the environment will change.

Thank you very much Galen, for these wonderful themes that you bring us every weekend, they allow us to express ourselves, to spread and also, why not, to make catharsis. Always very grateful.

Best wishes to everyone in the community and see you next time.

Thank you!

Society has been changing and those changes end up benefiting a few and affecting many. I feel like it's always been like this :( I agree with you that this new technological era has made many people look like zombies, both because of the information that can be seen there and in general. And I see it as difficult for this phenomenon to decrease in the medium term.

I agree with you, it's very complicated, the zombies are too many to wake them all up, I hope at some point it will happen.

Thank you very much @samantha.asami ❤️

Moral values shelved, perhaps pushed to the side by many.

Being able to listen to nature one learns very quickly how one must love oneself first to thrive in life, then share the love.

Important things that you mentioned here, society changed in many aspects but you start with ourselves. That's true, that is the place where the changes to the better start! 🙂

Change always comes from within us, from the inside out, once you change, then that is reflected.

Thank you @mipiano ❤️
