Un Deux Trois

I was blessed to be with some incredible people today who made time stand still. Or more like they reminded me that our Old Perception of linear time is tilted. Slanted. Polluted.

When we hear the right music. Find that right moment. Have the right resonance. Time becomes more clear. Or rather, we rediscover the timelessness of the Infinite Now.

Like many things, our Divine infants and children get this. They naturally laugh, simply breathe, live in the moment.

We can learn a lot from the laughter of children playing.

One said friend and I were at once talking about the need to use renewable energy for everything (including Crypto of course) while at the same time discussing the potential for Crypto as an alternative financial system.

There is an extremely optimistic future ahead in which Crypto is part of the continuing trend towards increasing Transparency that services like Twitter and Medium clearly are also a part. Technology makes information cheaper and therefore the World more Transparent forever.

The Beauty in that is we can see more of one another.

The downside of Light is it also let’s us see stuff that was previously hidden that folks might be in denial about. The #MeToo movement shouldn’t have been a surprise to anyone. Our society has many deep problems and this is simply one of the more glaring ones.

When it comes to our Financial System the problems are far deeper and more rampant. In a way, what happened in 2008 was simply a natural result of the way our System was architected.

How could people have been surprised that it almost blew itself up?

Rather than fixing the fundamental issues in our System, Captured governments worldwide simply bailed the whole thing out in 2008 and have kept it inflated through truly unprecedented and extreme monetary policies since then. They took a patient that had a cancer so bad that it almost annihilated itself and gave it some caffeine and uppers to get the patient back on its feet rather than addressing the cancer.

Pretending like Risk doesn’t exist for a decade (which is basically what global monetary policy has forced people to do since 2008) has consequences. Risks unaddressed build up over time.

Anyhow, this tends to get people bummed out to think about. Imagining our Financial System might collapse in a more complete way than it did in 2008 can be a downer.

BUT: one way of thinking about this is simply that the more Optimistic you are about the Future, the more Pessimistic you should be about the Old Financial System. In other words, if you believe all the bad stuff about our existing system must be reformed for Progress to emerge, maybe a Systemic Collapse is the fastest way to that future state.

Who knows. Maybe Old Companies can Heal fast enough to stave off this result. Maybe.

It seems more likely that the Old System might need to have another violent and maybe even catastrophic collapse to clear the way for the New System.

Regenerative and Mission Driven businesses are the way forward. Values based and inclusive cultures are the only ones that exist in the long run. Transparency in finance and media will arrive and Wellness for individuals and the earth will be here.

It is only a matter of TIME.

Maybe that Future is already Present in the Infinite Now.
