Viability

 

What makes people viable?  What makes people come together?  What constitutes a healthy person or society?  What do you want?

 

We have been given a lot of dystopic and postmodern messages over the past few decades.  We went from subsistence farmers—and perhaps even hunters—to living in cities with clubs and bars and coffeeshops and restaurants and stores only working fifty hours a week or so; and living well compared to our ancestors in heated homes with a car or two and schools for our children.  It’s hard to see: but we live so well.

 

What traits make us live well?  What traits constitute such a healthy society; and a healthy life individually; an enjoyable life?  And make us intergenerationally happy and wealthy; what traits lead to us and our society being reborn wealthier and happier?  It depends on--and society depends on--what you want.

 

We are a product of our labors and efforts and choices from past lives.  And we determine our future lives with our labors and efforts and choices.  And we determine what type of world we live in: our society.  And even in this life we determine our fate more or less.  At least in the free world.  So the question is really what do you want?

 

Some people want to work and better themselves.  Some people want to party all the time.  Some people want to hurt other people or do other dysfunctional things.  Some people fight others in a box that does not define their life.  Some people party when they can but do not neglect their responsibility—to themselves and their family or society.  

 

The people who are successful are either always working; or always trying to work.  The people who are successful in finding a mate and having children are these people.  They likely party some also—but would never sacrifice work for partying excepting rare occasions.  They also are the ones who give the most to society in their business and their charity.  They also are the ones who find the beautiful mate and have beautiful children and take care of them—who go on to do the same which eventually leads back to you reaping the fruits of your labors and being well-raised and perhaps even intergenerationally wealthy or well-off—as you are almost always reborn to your family down the line.  If you don’t have family; or if you don’t have a career; or if you don’t have a beautiful wife; or if you don’t have children; or if you don’t take good care of them, you are the exception and are probably paying off—or incurring—bad (unsuccessful) karma; and you, yourself, will not be well taken care of in your next life—and series of lives; and will have to start over, as it were. 

 

And life is made to be not so bad—at least in the modern, free world.  Work is much less hard and lengthy; there is free time and alcohol or other drugs; we shower and shave and have toilet paper and douche and tampons and contraception; there are a variety of things to do and buy to make ourselves happier; there are animals and pets as companions.  These are not normal on planet earth.  These things are special.

 

A person with good karma—a person who has made good decision and labored and been helpful to others in past lives will want to work, go to school, give to others, be kind, want to find a partner, want to treat their partner and children well—and all people, will look for the most attractive mate they can find—and their potential mate will do the same.  And these people will find success—at least in the free world.  Rarely people will not.  If it has become normal to not work and not treat others well, then the civilization is in decline.

 

You are supposed to be able to tell if your potential mates, as the best example in this world, are good mates.  Are they viable?  Women often do not have to work and are naturally fruit for another; men have to make themselves good fruit.  When raising children, perhaps the women will encounter an awakening—but all things generally go well in life and society—until its in decline.

 

There are some who might hijack these successful traits for their own ends—but under normal circumstances, your labors and ethics will lead you well.  And it should be noted all women look good to men unless they are exceptional cases.  It would be highly unusual for many women not to look good—or many men not to look good—and would indicate some type of major sickness in society; and probably the decline of civilization.  Of course, there would be many layered theories about all of this to justify the self-consuming of ourselves—and in denial or agreement on getting high ‘til you die might win.  And mental unfitness in addition to physical unfitness accompanies the decline of a civilization.  And all these psychologies really don’t exist in a viable civilization.  But the ailments don’t really either.
