Who should we be listening to?
If we are serious about making things better, there is only one source of guaranteed accurate information!
Needs! Our needs! The needs of others! Most important of all, the needs of the newborn!
If we can begin satisfying everybody’s needs, the world will begin to right itself! This is a promise!
Throughout the natural world, every living thing is intimately connected with its own needs!
Life can feel its needs! That only makes sense.
What are our needs then?
We don’t know???
We just guess?
What then, is the probability of getting it right?
There is no chance at all! Especially with relentless advertising in our faces all our waking hours!
We should be feeling our needs!
We don’t though! Why?
We have each disconnected somewhat from our own feelings! That’s why!
Why would we ever do that?
Because we hurt. Removing ourselves from our feelings eases our hurt!
The Human Race is living in a “catch-22” situation!
Because we can’t feel our own needs, or our instincts for that matter, we can’t sense the needs of our offspring!
We do the best we can, which unfortunately is a tragically wrong guess!
We take care of them and keep them safe at any cost!
What are their needs though?
All life carries its own power.
All life is self-driven.
All life is complete at conception! It doesn’t need guidance!
No life needs guidance!
Identities, along with instincts have evolved to make life work.
A Human without guidance is happy, feels powerful, and is playful as well as non-destructive.
That’s what people really are! Trusting and loving social creatures!
When we attempt to provide guidance, we overpower the messages coming from their identity.
The consequence of that is hurt. So much hurt that their feelings have to be abandoned to get any comfort!
Now this person can no longer feel their needs either.
This person no longer has a conscience!
They have become capable of anything!
Unfortunately, this is all of us right now!
We can’t feel our feelings, so we can’t give our young what they really need!
This traumatizes them so much they grow up not feeling their own feelings either!
Then, they treat their young the same!
The human race is stuck in this way!
Unfortunately, this condition is a downward spiral!
Now this is a lot to say!
It wouldn’t fly unless there was some truth here.
The truth is there all right! This insight works like magic!
It works every time! Allowing independence produces the strongest, most well-adjusted, happiest, and most cooperative humans.
There is no defiance! There is no rebellion! There is no conflict.
There is trust, love, and fun!
The conflict is, and was always about us attempting to override another person’s identity, and them trying to defend it against a more powerful opponent, us!
It’s true! What more can be said?
The only way to escape the downward spiral of the human race is to, child by child, allow them to live from their own identity.
They will be not only powerful but cooperative and fun!
It always works! Looking around at other families and cultures, we can see the evidence!
It’s a leap away from what our leaders are preaching! Well, consider it.
Do any leaders want healthy, strong, and independent citizens? People who know when they are fair and right?
As it turns out, the more that people are free to follow their own identity and instincts, the more honor they have, and the more morally responsible they are!
Still not sure? Try it! Allow independence! Support and encourage it!
Doing this allows trust to exist! Not the trust we are so proud of these days. Real, full-out trust! Absolutely no secrets are necessary trust!
Look around at the past of the strongest and most trusted people around. Did they come from a past of being controlled, or was their past one of support and approval to pursue goals through their own efforts.
There is no way we can protect our young and expect sudden strength when they turn 18! Believing, and expecting that is just silly!
Competence in life requires both experience, and the strength we were born with.
The only way possible for our young to keep their original power is to be allowed to live through their own efforts.
That’s what we see throughout nature. Perhaps that’s why we feel so good when we go into the wild.
