On the road again so the blogging this week and next will be light.
No pics.
Been thinking alot about education, corporations, money, power and the public and what it means to all of us as a nation. At some point some kind of discussion has to occur that relates to what the word public actually means and how it gets funded.
We seem to have lost sight of public responsibility for the nation, not just militarily but as a community of mixed individuals.
Historically we have funded the public endevors through taxes but now there is a concerted effort to reduce all things public and make them private.
The problem with making everything private is that the public gets lost in the quest for profit and supremacy.
"A human being is a part of a whole, called by us 'universe', a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest... a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty."
- Albert Einstein
"Go on in doing with your pen what in other times was done with the sword; show that reformation is more practicable by operation on the mind than on the body of man. Peace and friendship with all mankind is our wisest policy."
Thomas Jefferson

- This really isn't about me. This is about wanting to seed the hearts and minds of readers with a passion for change. Humanity Squared will be the product of researching the negatives and creating the positive. I'm just a drop in the ocean of humanity, but through my fingers tapping away, I hope to be a tsunami of change. Read my old posts this will make more sense. I publish on Wednesdays.All photos are copyrighted.
