Equality's Equation

To the Purveyors of Pleroma: I have surmised that life is the test! That civilization is the grand experiment. Possibly to determine which trait manifest strongest in humanity that of symbiont or parasite. Humanity was introduced into the grand equation of consumption and replenishment only for some to be cursed with insatiability and statistically stumble onto the stage as a perfect example of Pareto's Principle. We have a whole planet and we cannot manage our resources in any form or degree close to the model mother nature has so conveniently provided. It should be plain that one of nature's best defenses to cataclysmic change is biodiversity. Biodiversity enhances adaptation. It encourages efficiency. When civilization outstrips its ability to manage its resources and stress let alone cataclysmic change occurs then we are forced to learn things the hard way. I for one am sick of learning things the hard way. I am sick of being retroactive. Why the hell are we all not living in damn near indestructible homes made from an easily cultivated annual crop that can be the source of fuel, pharma, food and fiber. A vital resource that we don't need an infrastructure to utilize. We don't need pipelines or reserves to manage it. Isn't the ability to be self sufficient a common goal of all who aspire towards self sovereignty? Isn't that in fact security? I know I could sleep better at night knowing that I had at my disposal the ultimate resource, the ultimate by-product of biodiversity. Wouldn't that scenario be more in keeping with the very ideal of constitutional freedom with guaranteed liberty? To wake up one morning and take that first assessment of ones life and prospects. To be assured that you and your family will not starve or freeze to death. To know that your home is built to last that everything you make will last because not only is it in your best interest but in the best interest of your neighbor. Yes your neighbor with his own domain of self sustenance. With his own confident smile. And when you look at each other you will both surmise that your purpose here on this world was never to consolidate wealth and influence which in an environment of limited resource is an encroachment upon the sovereignty of another. If we could show that we can indeed learn from our environment that we can indeed establish and maintain a symbiotic relationship by not exploiting resources but securing them we could show that we are indeed ready for greater responsibility. We can indeed mature spiritually and perhaps one day become stewards of true paradise. So let us sow the seeds of self sovereignty and reap the rewards of rampant resourcefulness. "This I have seen. This I will see again"- The LLP
