Introducing integr8ed.org - my blog. Every day I am learning new things that I feel would greatly benefit, add insight, or perhaps inspire people to pursue the full lives they were designed to live. I love to learn and grow and I've always enjoyed helping others in their personal journies as well. It is my hope that you will join me in contributing to the discussion about the true meaning of life and living!
It's my personal belief that life is about being connected or integrated into a larger cosmic plan and global community (hence the name). This outward focused trajectory brings meaning to life and moves us away from our egocentric world view towards a more transcendent world view which is ultimately our unique contribution.
One of the challenges in helping people move towards transcendence is that there are quite a number of steps. Some people are struggling to survive let alone find meaning in life. How do we help those people? One of the ways may be to ask ourselves how some of our choices, the products we buy, the things we do, the food we eat may be contributing to the suffering in the world. This is why we need to be talking about this stuff!
Yesterday I took a test to find out how many slaves work for me. Sounds kind of funny but it's true. People all over the world are suffering a form of slavery (or are actually slaves) because of my consumption. Why don't you consider joining the conversation? Here is a link to the test: http://slaveryfootprint.org/survey/#where_do_you_live
It does make much sense!
