What if life includes no rules?
What if life includes no rules? There should be no rules, but only agreements. Rules evoke a stick with which person A strikes person B when person B doesn't follow an order of person A. My teacher hit the inside of my hand near my wrist with the thick end of his pointer stick when I was maybe nine, and I'm cross with him even long after his death. We might need no rulers in any sense. We have decided to torture, kill or cage the rule breakers. When you kill or cage one, you increase the probability that some people will follow rules. People often say that they don't want to spend years in one building (the prison). A huge number of people spend years in a small number of buildings, and this number can be very close to two: you serve in one and sleep in the other. Some prisons offer a similar life.
Some prisoners may not vote. Less and less free people vote; and their choices are bloody awful, that is: they pretend to vote.
Some people have made illegal laws, that is: rules that violate fundamental laws and legal principles. Instead of uniting against, and fighting, these people in order to restore the legal balance, many people play by the rules of their destroyers. They mistake an enemy for a master. I'd say that masters and slaves are the enemies of everything. Their usual behavior is sick; one's healthy behavior manifests freedom. When one doesn't manifest one's freedom, one gets sick. (Let me know when you're sick of it all and start rebalancing!) Many people won't have anyone say this because there seem to be these categories of people: processors (slaves), thieves (masters), warriors and free people. Free people want the other three categories to manifest their freedom. The other three categories kill everything, ruin soil and spread poison. We, people, dig to dig. You might say that we like digging. I say that we do things like digging for iron to make diggers.
We live well when we don't generate electrical energy, better when we don't start fires and best when we don't manipulate energy, which we seem to do because we're too lazy to roam for food.
We and other species carry little food over short distances. This can be a general description of a natural behavior. There are important differences between the behavior of humans and the behavior of most other beings. I want to talk with people who try to understand why we have started behaving unnaturally. We have taken carrying to extremes. We have destroyed nature by moving everything we can. Merchants started messing with people's minds and bodies by bringing them beings and artifacts they would never see, because sedentary people would walk for tens, not thousands of, kilometers.
Why did Greeks and Romans walk so far east? Maybe because we're fascinated by our environment. Why do we destroy it then? I don't like awe. We mustn't fear anything. Nature will not destroy us. Nature is not a being. Beings don't eat us. We're fine in rain with little to no shelter. Have there been times in which thunder strikes killed many beings? It's not clear to me why we fear them. It might take a great effort to adapt to tropical forests. The beings in places similar to the European forests seem fewer and less challenging.
Why do a group of people cross hills and seas, and then kill people and cut and burn things? No other species behave like this, do they? How could destruction be normal? What imbalance is there in such people? Can we teach respect towards all of nature?
Any society works as a net: it catches stumblers and helps them rebalance. It is as effective as healthy the individuals are.
We feel like hitting someone if we believe they threaten our balance. We push them away. It is good to move away from something that seems unbalancing. Sometimes it is useful to focus on what rebalances us, for instance resting or eating, and postpone dealing with what seems unbalancing. We can ask somebody to not interact with us for a while. Let us take time almost every day to rebalance completely and to help others do the same! Otherwise we become more and more aggressive, and we destroy ourselves and our environment. Such a person can be recruited by another imbalanced person (who imagines that he is a ruler and has power) as a "warrior", actually as a plunderer, a drunkard and a rapist. Such a person becomes a ruler, then the ruled complain that the laws are wrong and their lives are miserable. Misery can be the result of habitual fear. What imbalance do a group experience who are in the habit of being afraid? Thieves and warriors despise processors because the latter imagine they are destined to obey the former, that is: to play the game of processing beings and resources according to the imagination of the thieves.
A heap is an imbalance. Other beings seem to start eating when they find a heap of food, while a usual scenario in people's lives is to start killing the beings who (want to) eat from this heap. Processors heap resources. Thieves take from heaps. Instead of communicating about this and agreeing on a way of life that both parties enjoy, the two parties declare a war for which we might have imagined no end. Good-for-nothing people, quarrelers, have been paid to fight on both sides. One cannot fight somebody else's fight; one can live only one's life. But these people are not loved, nor educated. We promise them food and we urge them to kill each other. If our slaves win, we take the spoils. Processors are the most numerous group and seem the most destructive people.
