Spending time with this beauty-cuty in a little refreshing paradise...
No network, no sounds other than nature, my way of forgetting, for a little moment, the state of humanity...

"An ethics of probability tends to crowd out an ethics of possibility."
"A technocratic approach can also be self-defeating in policy terms. Render the future too concrete and it becomes harder to think about far-reaching structural change. In the language of the anthropologist Arjun Appadurai, an ethics of probability tends to crowd out an ethics of possibility. Moreover, the precision of targets can make failures more glaring, as goals are missed and deadlines pass.This weakens commitment in adversity ā a point made by sympathetic critics of a climate agenda centred on āhitting the carbon numbersā. Arguably one of the preconditions of radical politics is an element of imprecision. The anticolonial thinker and activist Frantz Fanon once warned of the ācurious cult of detailā that could afflict the scientific mindset in politics, causing its bearer to lose sight of the bigger picture: āThus, if a local defeat is inflicted, he may well be drawn into doubt, and from thence to despair.ā" Jonathan White

"Ecclesiastes counsels us to embrace a simple way of life and to be led by doctrines which involve a genuine faith in God. Then we may eat our bread in gladness and drink our wine with a cheerful heart. We will not fall into slanderous speech nor be involved in anything devious; rather we should think that which is right, and, insofar as we can, we should help the poor and destitute with mercy and generosity, truly dedicated to those pursuits and good deeds which please God." ~~~ From a commentary on Ecclesiastes by Saint Gregory of Agrigentum, bishop
(Lib 8,6: PG 98, 1071-1074) in today's Office of Readings

Very interesting discussion, about our artificial and full of illusions capitalistic life, about what to do, about nature, crazy people who destroy, change and culture (this text doesn't show my french accent, I follow @blast_info who made this inspiring video).

Australia's lack of fuel security
"Our way of life
depends upon cheaper oil and fuel coming from overseas, but it does so at the cost of our security and resilience...The thought of not having food in cupboards and fridges or prescription medicines would likely exercise people's minds a lot more than the ill-informed thoughts they had during COVID about toilet paper." >>

A quotation from Bible, vol. 2, New Testament:
Ā«
The Day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then with a roar the sky will vanish, the elements will catch fire and fall apart, the earth and all that it contains will be burnt up.
Since everything is coming to an end like this, you should be living holy and saintly livesā¦

Buddhism is a way of life, it is a way of ideology for self actualisation. So one can understand oneself, one can understand oneās own problem. One can improve oneself to accept reality and guide oneself to face oneās problems.

Our #WayofLife makes it very hard to connect to the very foundations of #life on earth we depend on. We are looking at other inhabitants of the earth as resources, as if we were the owners of the planet; by using them, we deny relations and dependency. We live in cities, away from Nature; our #technology shuts us off further from everybody else. Nevertheless confronted with bad outcomes, we use more technology to "fix" things. #civilization. #climatecrisis
Atheist Mantra

There is no god except my consciousness.
This body and this world are all we have.
Treat others how you want them to treat you.
Do what you want as long as you harm none.
We create our own paradise on earth.
We are nothing after death so live well.
