Questions of the Day: What if “The Law of Attraction” was as simple as the game of “Name It and Claim It?” Is it possible that every label we attach creates congestion and enter-fears with the free circulation of life?

I laugh when I am labeled as a tree-huger and an old hippie. Quite literally I have never been very hippie as my hips are not a real prominent factor in my body frame; a more apt description would be a big boob.

Definition of Congestion: Congestion generally means excessive overcrowding and clogging:

Free easy circulation is the opposite of dis-easy congestion. Think about how many lives are destroyed by complications from congestion. Every system on Earth from those in the individual body… to those used to govern… to those used for trade… to those necessary for life… require free circulation.

Fear is a congestion that starts in the mind and grows in dark places like a hidden mold or fungus constantly fed by outside stimulus assimilated by the senses…what we feel, what we hear, what we see, what we smell, and what we taste.

When we live in an environment where toxic information is fed to us through attached labels, we fear that our very survival depends on which label we attach to. We fear being naked and defenseless unless we are fixed, saved, clothed and congested with labels.

Everywhere we turn we are bombarded by labels and most of them are artificial meaningless terms used to judge and classify as superior or inferior. What labels do we congest ourselves and others with to identify that we are exclusive or that we belong?

Think about some of the labels we put on ourselves and other people so we can feel superior or determine who we can love or who we fear…black, white, illegal, criminal, actor, politician, mercenary, lawyer, Christian, Jew, Muslim, democrat, republican, socialist, conservative, liberal, male, female, rich, poor, middle class, educated, illiterate, expert, Nike, authority, victim, enforcer, American, Arab, Asian, African American, terrorist, doctor, drug dealer, pharmacist, Pepsi, Mexican.

All labels are just words with no difference in value to life. Right now there are over 6.88 billion human beings who came to “life” on this earth with a physical body in exactly the same way. The congestive thinking that one of these lives is of more or less value than another is the beginning of all disease which strangles freedom.

Is life of greater value to one who is labeled as being from a nationality of a certain color, of a certain political party, of an exclusive religion in an affluent financial status with an educational level which denotes a profession than to a person born on the streets in poverty in a war-torn area to unwed parents of unknown linage?

CONTROL and CONQUER THEORY

Every labelled group feels that their beliefs are “right” and that they must defend their rights by controlling other labelled groups.  This is the basis of every conflict and war.  So do we continue experimenting with the Control and Conquer Theory until we have congested the life out of everyone and everything on Earth?

Think about the millions of labels that each of these labels has created and how they have congested the flow or circulation of love and understanding in the world. With each label comes the rules (laws) of behavior required to wear the label and stereotypes of what these labels represent.

One reason that labels are so congestive is because they are sticky. Once a label is attached it is very difficult to remove. Labels also sick together to become a sticky mess that can capture any life that comes in contact with it, much like the fly paper with sweet sticky goo to attract flying insects. Some examples of these congestive labels include political parties, religious groups, ethnic groups, gangs, and institutions.

Labels cut off circulation and freedom. When our human value is dependent on the label placed on us, we are not free and the way we are treated in our society is dependent on this label. Wars are fought to protect the value of the label we carry and prove the superiority of the label. Laws are written to insure financial control of the dominant label.

People who feel the need to label themselves in order to belong also judge and label everyone they come in contract with. Labels are no more than someone’s judgment of value. All sports shoes and clothing are made in the same factories with the only difference in supposedly value being the label that is attached.

The nature of our bodies is the same as the nature of the world in which we have life…Earth. The nature of our body is free circulation of all the systems using natural resources which were given freely to all. If I were going to describe my own personality it would be more of a flower-child because of my love of nature.
