What If Money Was No Object
What If Money Was No Object
“It’s all wretch and no vomit.” – Alan Watts
Some of the highlights include the following quotes (in case you are too lazy to watch it).
“What would you like to do if money wer no object?”
“If you say money is the most important thing you will spend your life completely wasting your time. You will be doing things you don’t like doing only to go on living which is doing things you don’t like doing- which is stupid!”
“Better to have a short life filled with things you like doing, than a long life being miserable.”
“It’s all wretch and no Vomit.”
“THEREFORE, IT’S SO IMPORTANT TO ANSWER THIS QUESTION, WHAT DO I DESIRE?”
I have that last quote from Watts in all caps, because I believe we in today’s society do not quite understand the question. He is not asking, “what makes you feel good?” He’s also not asking, “what is your favorite job?” Watts is asking us to put all cultural norms and expectations to the side, and honestly search your own soul to ask yourself, “what do I believe is important; not just important, but most important for me to do with my life?” Now, I want you reader to know that I do not endorse most of Watts’ work, but I do applaud this video, because he is not sticking to the expectations of life in America. He is begging, as I am, for people to contemplate the direction of their lives and to live for something which has purpose. Do not find your identity in an expectation, but find your identity in the deepest most desires of your entire being. The Bible addresses this issue in the “Sermon on the Mount.”

Strive to be happy
Strive to be happy:
Go placidly amid the noise and the haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexatious to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.
Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism.
Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love, for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment,it is as perennial as the grass.
Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.
You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be. And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.
Zeitgeist Addendum: Part III
Zeitgeist Addendum: Part III
Zeitgeist: Addendum was born out of public interest in possible solutions to the cultural issues presented in Zeitgeist: The Movie. Building upon the topics of social distortion and corruption, Addendum moves to also present possible solutions. Featured in the work is former “Economic Hit-man” and New York Times bestselling author, John Perkins, along with The Venus Project, an organisation for social redesign created by Social Engineer and Industrial Designer Jacque Fresco. Part One explains the process of Money Creation and Expansion through the Fractional Reserve System. It explains how Debt and Bankruptcy are not mere byproducts of our current system, but rather are underlying realities of our existence with periodic failures guaranteed. Part Two exposes various levels of international corruption via the financial/corporate system, including the manipulation of public leaders to further the interests of corporate institutions. Part Three changes gears and depicts a possible solution to the growing social problems in the world today by the introduction of a new social concept known as a “Resource-Based Economy”. Finally, Part Four gives a philosophical perspective in the hope to inspire change in the viewer and enable action to affect society for the better.
