THE IMPORTANCE OF SELF PROTEST
Well it seems many of the participants of the global occupy movement may not realize it but 1% is still about 70 million people. Thats about a 3rd of the population of the USA. Thus are we or they to realize that what and who the occupiers are really rebelling about and against is THEMSELVES? They do not seem to realize how good they have it compared to the majority of the worlds population that lives on say less than 10 dollars a day or so and how many few watts of energy. So have they finally woken up then and have now forsaken their smugness and plenty and are confessing their sins and richness and asking for forgiveness and compassion and offering what as an alternate? a pledge and oath to poverty and charity and devotion to humanitarianism?
But men cannot live on protest alone and it is rather embarrassing to protest and find it is you or your birthright and heritage you are in effect protesting against. Maybe as towards mitigation of such though thus define what parts of your life's you don't like and would like to change and those that are acceptable and worth keeping and try to live up to your aspirations.
But rather also, take heart and hope instead that one day, as in the immortal words of Don Juan (CC) USA, 1970s guru, you and we may fully realize, that life, even as such, is far to short and we do truly live in a most wondrous and unfathomable Earth and universe.
In the mean time though happy occupying and self protesting to you then
