Younger people are seeking greater work-life balance. They are rebelling against the phenomenon called "the working poor". The young do not want to work during their entire working lives and still die in deep poverty. They want a balance. For them, unlike the Puritans, work is neither a blessing nor a virtue.
When God Created lush EDen
no work was needed
- no ties-not even a thong-
and the abundance of Eden's Earthly bounty far exceeded the artificial dna manipulated
insecticide pesticide
steroid and and hormone injected '
chemically preserved pseudo-food
that our gluttonous appetites relish with glee.
THEN came the second rebellion
ever so subliminal but laced in greed and simple basic RULE BREAKING.
You can have everything except this one thing-
Greed is not the same as curiosity.
Greed is arrogant.
One may be curious but refrain from rebelling.
Mankind rebelled and so
YA DONT WORK the wok
YA DONT EAT
became our eternal inheritance
We spoil our children to no ends- so now we have an exoctic generation with a protracted arrested "childhood" between birth and 25+ years of age.
NORMAL Youth need to vigorously assert themselves via industriousness
Established job titles are not the only access points. Stipends or points towards future scholarship can be created via the following initiatives: volunteerism
Sports , arts,or sustainability / conservation projects, curating /protecting landmarks and preservations etc..
Ya work -ya eat
This is the sin we reaped from our rebellion @ Eden;
and unless one of those "slackers"
can prove he she it is without sin -then please starve on your workless rebellion as the pangs of your ganja munchees creep in.
I would gladly forgo a tie and suit to till, plant and harvest my own supply of healthy organic food.
Those of us who yearn for a healthy -longer life have no other choice especially in the age of limited income and spiraling health costs.
But the mindset of youth is typically one of INVINCIBILITY.
The ID has arrived in all its pleasure driven glory to rule the EGO of the young
- Good grief!
If you believe all what you have written above, then it is all of your god's plan. He created it to be so. Unless, you believe that the dEVIL, is a power equal to your god. Your god was always there then? Then, the dEVIL must have evolved from the soils of the earth. How many man-made myths can you reconcile in your head, zealot and worshipper of the Crescent moon god?
Since, you confuse my path to the Divine with that of SOM (He does believe in the One God -just a different path) and there are no synagogues in St Lucia , I am left to speculate that you are most probably an ATHEIST-
As a gentleman blogger, I thought of opening my defense with Eric Erickson's Psychosocial Stages of Human Develoment.
Please note how early on INDUSTRY is a Major Factor (that is before you decide you are man or woman enough for a life of leisure.
Contents
1 The stages
1.1 Hopes: Trust vs. Mistrust (Oral-sensory, Birth-2 years)
1.2 Will: Autonomy vs. Shame & Doubt (Muscular-Anal, 2-4 years)
1.3 Purpose: Initiative vs. Guilt (Locomotor-Genital, Preschool, 4-5 years)
1.4 Competence: Industry vs. Inferiority (Latency, 5-12 years)
1.5 Fidelity: Identity vs. Role Confusion (Adolescence, 13-19 years)
1.6 Love: Intimacy vs. Isolation (Young adulthood, 20-24, or 20-39 years)
1.7 Care: Generativity vs. Stagnation (Middle adulthood, 25-64, or 40-64 years)
1.8 Wisdom: Ego Integrity vs. Despair (Late adulthood, 65-death)
THEREFORE, your arguement that youth should RETHINK the work ethic is indicative of youth who failed in the 4th Competence stage: Industry vs. Inferiority (Latency, 5-12 years)
Yes siree you are an inferior specimen of primate if you have not achieved the industrious mantle of responsibility by age 12.
In Socialist Russia said persons would be sent to Siberia.
During their Cultural revolution the Chinese (with very limited mechanized harvesters in their inventory) sent professors and other white collar workers who were on vacation -to help regular farmers/peasants in who tolerate no slackness can afford to give loans to industrialized nations and handouts to islands weighed down by lazy slacker mentalities described in the article.
Yes I was once an eager energetic youth and my proudest economic moment was bringing home a cheque from my vacation job as an apprentice assistant -at age 15.
Thank you oh my Lord God for that life long learning.
It not so much the rewards of work but the devil you seem obsessed with has PLENTY OF TIME to seduce IDLE hands.
I can only imagine what got you to support a preposterously lazy proposition:
1- You were born with a silver spoon in mouth- your inheritance is protected in offshore accounts
2- You were so spoiled even your servant testified that that your uninhibited farts had the alluring scent of Channel #5
3- You were toting from the family stash of hi grade Acapulco Gold an at 12 you were frolicking in the antechambers with the neighborhood nymph in exchange for tightly rolled spliffs.
Lets get to the nitty gritty: Only one who was exposed to exceptional leisure and a spoiled ID would merit the self serving leisure pleasure posture that you advocate.
Don't sweat it- yet
but if tea party endorsed candidates take the majority after Obama leaves office -you can start begging Allah, Buddha and Jehovah to restore your full remittance allowances from Western Union.
6:06
Dealing with the ignorant who is deliberately ignorant like the ignoramus in 8:57 is an insurmountable undertaking. Such a nincompoop materializes the saying "where ignorance is bliss..."
Such Negroes are trained by talking-heads of TV. They Read nothing to pursue enlightenment, therefore are reckless in their speech. Take the example of his delibrate ignorance as he refrences Moon God for Islam.
This is what The Qur-an says to Muslims:
Surah Fussilat
Among His Signs are the Night and the Day and the sun and Moon. Adore not the Sun and the Moon but adore Allah Who created them if it is Him ye wish to serve. (37)
---
How then you reconcile the braying of an ass? Again from the Qur-an:
Surah Luqman
"And be moderate (or show no insolence) in your walking, and lower your voice. Verily, the harshest of all voices is the braying of the ass." (19)
See you not (O men) that Allâh has subjected for you whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is in the earth, and has completed and perfected His Graces upon you, (both) apparent (i.e Islâmic Monotheism, and the lawful pleasures of this world, including health, good looks, etc.) and hidden [i.e. One's Faith in Allâh (of Islâmic Monotheism) knowledge, wisdom, guidance for doing righteous deeds, and also the pleasures and delights of the Hereafter in Paradise]? Yet of mankind is he who disputes about Allâh without knowledge or guidance or a Book giving light! (20)
The first Enslaved Africans Were Brought to America Long Before 1619
The Myth:
From history textbooks used in the United States, it is taught that slavery in North America began when the Dutch brought the first kidnapped Africans to the colony of Jamestown, Virginia, in 1619.
What Really Happened:
According to the Dictionary of North Carolina Biography, slavery in North America began with the first Spanish settlement in what is now South Carolina in 1526, 93 years before Africans were brought to Jamestown.
In the early summer of 1526, a Spanish conquistador, Lucas Vazquez de Ayllon, sailed from Hispaniola to found a settlement called San Miguel de Guadalupe, probably at the mouth of the Pee Dee River (Winyah Bay), in South Carolina.
This settlement housed 500 Spaniards and 100 enslaved Africans but lasted only about three months after an outbreak of disease killed Ayllon and many of his men.
In November, the Africans captives revolted, killing the Spanish and escaping to Native Americans. Only 150 colonizers returned to Hispaniola in December 1526.
What is UWI's role in this study?...and if unemployment is so high, wouldn't it be easy to replace those lazy bastards who don't want to work?....tuff LOVE!
When subspecies have no other purpose and their high priests serve no other purpose but to foment gore, blood sacrifices, mayhem, ritual killings, murders, and revenge, we get the Middle East. There, politics is religion, and religion is politics.
In the West, politics is economics, and economics is politics. There was one term used to capture all of this completely, namely, the political economy. Amen.
Out here in the fields
I farm for my meals
I get my back into my living
I don't need to fight
To prove I'm right
I don't need to be forgiven
Don't cry
Don't raise your eye
It's only teenage wasteland
Sally, take my hand
We'll travel south cross land
Put out the fire
And don't look past my shoulder
The exodus is here
The happy ones are near
Let's get together
Before we get much older
Teenage wasteland
It's only teenage wasteland
Teenage wasteland, oh yeah
Teenage wasteland
They're all wasted
By The Who - Teenage Wasteland
This is the newest leader on the block.
Where were the others to have thought of such a great idea these past twenty years?
Some have traded GRIMM's FAIRY TALES for other books with fairy tales and with animals with furry tails. Its like perfectly collecting a pair of each type of animal in the world within a radius of just a few miles in just a few days.
What about those creatures that were in the water during those 40 days and nights?
Was there any mention of aquariums? What about those creatures that live beneath the surface of the earth and hibernate for about 10 years before resurfacing? Was there another creation?
