We All Share An Amazing Dream & Drive
Finding it within ourselves to cause what we all want in our lifetimes.
In spite of the unbelievable horrors humans are responsible for, there is a dream we all share, a dream of life, of liberty, of happiness. It’s not an American dream. It’s a human dream.
This dream shows who we are. This dream shows what we all want.
Now is the time to move beyond our barbarity and realize this dream.
We all know it. Every one of us will be much better off, much happier, much more fulfilled, in a world where we are all safe, with plenty of what we need to thrive, and where each of us has a real opportunity to explore the infinite miracles of life and to express our unique gifts as a contribution to a world and a humanity we love.
This dream is possible now.
Not a pipe dream. Not a utopia. We will all still have to deal with life, deal with ourselves, deal with each other. And that will always be challenging. Life is challenging. We are challenging!
And yet we can reorganize our human world to support the kind of life we all want, to foster the dream we all share.
And that will make all the difference.
This may sound naive. Humanity appears broken, full of hatred, and incredibly evil. We have built a world that runs on greed, domination, and fear. How can we, as corrupt and untrustworthy as we are, possibly remake this world into a place that supports our happiness and well-being?
Well, it may not be easy. We must alter who we are. We must become the people who create and manage a world that’s actually good for us.
We must become whole, loving, powerful (i.e., responsible) adults.
Miraculously, the dream and the drive for this are already in us.
The Dream:
Each of us was born from a realm of infinite possibility. We will all go back to that when we die, whole, complete, and perfect. In between, we all have the opportunity to contribute to material life. Many “small” opportunities, the moment-by-moment choices we have for living our lives each day; One big opportunity - our lives as a whole.
We all dream of contributing, of making a difference with our lives. This calls to us always.
Our ultimate dream is to create and live in a world designed for contribution, where everyone matters, where everyone counts. In this amazing world, we will all be free to explore the miracles of life and how much we can contribute. Life becomes about discovery, self-expression, and fulfillment.
This dream is there in us all.
We all dream of a home/world that supports our well-being, self-expression, and fulfillment.
The Drive:
Life comes with a built-in system of rewards and penalties. We all reap what we sow. You can pretend all you want. You can pretend that you sow only goodness. But Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. Live a life of contribution, love, and fulfillment, get a life of contribution, love, and fulfillment. Live a life ruled by greed, domination, and fear, get a life ruled by greed, domination, and fear. This is the system you’re in.
You don’t need to be religious. It doesn’t matter what you believe. This is simply how life works - as immutable as gravity.
This is very good news.
In our current world, it may seem like those on top have it good. They do not. A life built on greed, violence, and fear is a profoundly miserable life. And those “on top” right now have that kind of life. Do not be fooled.
Those with all the money and guns are miserable. Their lives do not work. In a life built on hoarding as much material control as possible, there is no real satisfaction, no peace of mind or fulfillment. All that money and all those guns are still powerful, and seemingly needed. But the motivation is there for a different life, a different way.
If we want a lives that are truly great, we must live accordingly. We must be responsible for all that we sow.
The drive is there in us all.
We all have the drive to live for the maximum benefit of all.
How do we utilize this drive and realize this dream?
How do we come together and create the world we all really want?
These are ridiculous questions. We already are all here together, trying to accomplish the same things! And yet… we are so far… from united.
And clearly, we must come together if we really want this to work. Until we all come together and commit to the world we all want, we will keep working against each other, pulling in different directions, dominating, fighting, and killing each other. That will simply not work. We are all here together. We must do this together.
How do we unite?
For that which will benefit us all?
Well… We are the only ones insisting that we cannot be united. We are the ones maintaining the narratives and structures that keep our world divided. We are the ones maintaining the disarray.
We are in our own way. We’ve always been in our own way! Maybe not as horrifically or as completely as we are right now. But still, at least since the Garden of Eden or whatever, we’ve been the ones in the way.
How do we get ourselves out of the way?
We align ourselves with something higher, with something greater than our “selves”. We align on a purpose and vision, a way of being in life, a mission big enough to call us all forward, up out of the muck.
What if we all aligned to cause humanity’s ultimate triumph, our ultimate triumph?
Not the triumph of the blinded, disconnected humanity that has always gotten in our way. The triumph of our higher humanity, the part of us that lives (and longs) for glory, for the glory of all.
What if we all aligned for the triumph of the human spirit?
The triumph of the highest and most fulfilling aspect of us all?
It’s now or never!
Our purpose:
To cause the ultimate triumph of the human spirit -
Humanity united for the glory of all.
- UMA
Now that’s a game! There is no bigger game to play, no greater victory possible. Not for us humans. This is a game to call forth every one of us.
And we can win!
Yes, in spite of all appearances to the contrary, we terrifying, miserable humans can absolutely win the game of our own greatest triumph. We all have it in us. We are made for this.
So this is what we do. We cause the people of the world to come together for the ultimate triumph of the human spirit.
We create a vision for this that everyone can own, a vision that is universally inspiring, clear, and attainable. We share this vision with everyone. We share our purpose in aligning to achieve the vision. And we inspire and compel everyone on the planet to join us in accomplishing the mission.
We use our words, the power of language, to re-create who we are and what we are up to. We alter our conversations, our narratives, stories, and agreements. We author and grow a new conversation for humanity’s triumph that takes hold of our collective consciousness and becomes the foundation of who we are and what we are all doing.
A monumental task, perhaps. But achievable. Especially as we harness the power of technology to assist us. What better use could there be for our electronic connectivity and “intelligence”?
It’s all a conversation. And we now have the ability to author and spread a conversation globally as never before. Now is our time.
Humanity united, working together (at last) for the benefit (and glory) of all.
Life for every one of us wildly better than it is now.
We are finally doing it! We’ve all come together for what matters most!
The reign of terror must end. Life does not need to be like this. The horrors we have caused (and are causing right now) live in us all. Own them. Experience them. You and I are monsters. We are terrifying. That’s not all, though. We all have the power to choose a different course.
Join us in our conversation for the humanity and the world we all want.
It’s ours to cause.
This is “early days” for UMA, the conversation for the world we all want.
