Zeitgeist - The Documentary

Often in our lives we have felt that things are not quite right. We feel that perhaps the ways of constant war, torture, brutality, and totalitarian greed is not the 'right' way to do things, if advancement of our species is our ultimate goal. Well... what is our ultimate goal? Have we defined that as a race (the human race)? Have we stood and voted for our global mission statement as a collective in order to help guide us into the new world? Or are we constantly being misdirected, and distracted before we're even able to formulate an opinion?

If our ultimate goal for the human race is advancement, spiritual, societal, or peaceful progression of our species, then we're not doing a very good job. What do we want to do with our precious existence? Do we want to focus our lives on helping alleviate the world of its troubles and help move things along for future generations, or do we want to just worry about our own families, finances, and friends? Well a more advanced species would care about the collective, for without the whole, the one cannot exist. No man, or family for that matter is an island, and without global peace and security, there will be no security within the household of our kin.

So... where do we want to go? Where do we want to be? Where did we come from? What is our meaning and purpose in life? Well without us having sought the answer, we will never find it, and thus will float throughout existence like a leaf in the wind, hoping and praying that things get better. Well... sorry to tell you but hope is not a strategy.

So what is the problem then? Well we have greed, corruption, war, and more greed to contend with. On top of that, there are those at high levels with the ability to manipulate on a grand scale, without regard for the unity that is life itself. Well regardless of what you might believe, or what you might think about the world which we live in, it is obvious that we lack a collective goal.

Without a collective goal that we can all work towards, we will divide amongst ourselves and be conquered... by each other. Here is a documentary to spark your interests - it is a long one, so you should have some time on your hands before getting into it, but it's time well spent. Have a good weekend, and here's looking forward to an abundant and prosperous new year for us all.
