Personal Meditation No. 56
"You can learn without having to enter a government building and your education isn't something someone else should dictate. Your education is your choice as well."
Embrace the Within.
I am sure you’ve seen or heard the whole argument that they should teach blank in high school like the only place you can learn something is in a government building. Personal responsibility is not mandating that something be taught in a building funded by theft. Personal responsibility is educating yourself. It might even be educating your own children. It might even be educating the children of your neighbors. It might be getting on a computer and tap-tap-arooing into a blog every day about what really is important to learn. And it sure isn’t most of what you learn in government schools or most schools set up on the Prussian model.
We are constantly bombarded with information on purpose. That purpose is to disorient us. We cannot hope to process all the information that bombards us daily. We have to rely on our brains to take short cuts and give us the important information. But how can we do that especially when our brains are not out for our best interest. Our brain is still working on prehistoric wiring and effective advertisers, writers, politicians, salespeople, reporters, pastors, teachers, influencers understand this and use it to their advantage.
Maybe we should focus less on what we’re being taught in school and more on how we’re being influenced all the time to think or believe or accept things? I don’t know. That’s up to you. But if you think learning how to do your taxes is important then go ahead. Maybe having the public education system come up with a class about life skills is the best way to ensure that people know how to support and care for themselves? Maybe that’s in your best interest, maybe that’s in your child’s best interest, but is it really in the ruling class’s best interest?
I hope you find whatever you’re looking for. Have the day you want.
