I was watching an interview with Professor Richard Dawkins yesterday and made a note of something he said which struck home for me in a big way
“Pursuits of the mind - art, music, thinking - intellectual pursuits are only possible when we have the leisure - which is a luxury - to practice them”.
How true that is when you really think about it (if you have time)
I personally think that there is a lot wrong with the world right now that could be fixed if most of us had more free time to spend looking at what’s really going on
Instead most
people have so little spare time that they just accept what they are being fed by governments, politicians and mainstream media
All of whom have an agenda that very much relies on maintaining the status quo
The 9-5 regime which we can all see is now very dated
When you do have time to look at alternative media you realise that we actually don’t have a lot of free speech left and that the vast majority of us are simply not being listened to
That’s why Donald Trump is president of the USA and the majority of the UK voted for Brexit
Neither of which the establishment saw coming - because they are completely out of touch with real people
We can thank the internet for that because that’s where an increasing number of us are going to find the truth
It’s also the best
place we can go to get more of the time freedom we all need and to start building the sort of world that the vast majority of us want.
Just a thought…
Cheers!
