Hi All Steemit Friends Many Beautiful Nature
The wind is whipping everyone’s face today. Visibility is low. Temperatures are freezing. It is dangerous for the elderly to be out and about, and not very safe to drive, all truth be told.
I love driving in the snow. But still. Here, as I sit and watch all the people hustle and move around, trying to get to their largely pointless (on days like today) jobs (often no real point other than to shuffle papers, reorganize some items on a shelf, or even build someone a house) I realize that society is a rigid machine, non-compatible with flow. With nature. With being human.
I myself am part of this silly hustle bustle, today force waking and force-feeding, and guzzling caffeine, to head to a “job” that could really be postponed to a day when it wasn’t hazardous to go outside. What do animals do on days like today? They stay the fuck inside until conditions for hunting and just existing are more favorable.
The cars drive around, crash into each other. Old people slip and fall and go to the hospital. Where’s the fireplace? Where’s the stack of wood split on fairer days for days like these? The supply of canned goods and food? They don’t exist, for the most part. We are expected by some amorphous non-entity called “society” to get out there and “DO YOUR BEST” :) :) :) !!!!!!!!
Cut that hair.
Be that clown.
Shuffle those papers.
Rearrange those picture frames.
Sure, some things need to be done on days like today. Of course. But things have become so bloated, so unsustainably expansive as far as communities go, in the interest of making everything and everyone one happy system, that now the smaller villages, communities, and societies, that would wisely wait a few hours to check the scene on days like today, are swallowed by a culture that has no preserves, no firewood, and no connection to being human, nature, or the rhythmic cycles of the earth. And is in an insurmountable hurry to get basically fucking nowhere.
Even mega-sized, modern cities could hypothetically exercise this common sense and use totally high-tech approaches to a more organic sense of flow and humanity. Not this wage-slave, work your ass-off to pay for the posh lifestyles of bureaucrat non-producers who “control the world.”
Good. That said, get out there and go to your pointless job!!!
I’ll be doing the same!
Now that this gripe is out of the way. And the pointlessness has been established. Let’s try to make at least one person smile today.
