The problem isn’t them. It’s us

The problem isn’t them. It’s us. The solution isn’t them. It’s also us.

It is easy to mistake destruction for construction. In fact there are even a wide range of diseases that we mistake for healthy. These are mismatch or “lifestyle” diseases. It is even possible to wear the body backwards—rather than in a balanced way. This is a large part of the cause of most chronic joint pain.

If we easily mistake destruction for creation, what does this say about our brain function? Wouldn’t it mean something like we are allowing the left hemisphere to be dominant rather than the right hemisphere, which is intrinsically already balanced? Something like that…?

And shouldn’t there be a series of switches, levers, handles we could activate to easily and naturally balance the system again? Isn’t that how you would build a skeleton?

But if we did balance the system what would our brains look like? Would we still be able to buy a new iPhone every year and a new car every three years? Would we still be able to keep things running like this? Would we be giving up a lot of luxuries or would we be gaining a lot?

The problem isn’t them. It’s us. The solution isn’t them. It’s also us.
