Rituals/ Respect

How some people spend the majority of their life with their back against a tree or lying in shrubs or burning the bodies of their peers. The fact those spaces may see more purity of thought and soul than functioning society.

Then there is running out of timber to burn bodies or construct basic housing. What logistics we have developed to move beyond that feeling.

How to determine the rituals and self respect to flow forward. To respect the aspects of our order. To respect the self and also preserve it while serving the larger systems that sustain global cohesion with equanimity.

Yet how we sustain global cohesion, with the dominant modes of functionality that may infact not be the best trajectory for the entire global population. Azerbaijan again springs to mind. As it joins the BRICS, a needed balance to the sways of western finance, and maintains its ties to Turkey. Exerts its power over the Armenian Christians.

If only I could go to Baku.

If only I could see why China is obsessed with railways as much as me. A third rail link through Kazakstan under construction. Connecting China to numerous places, the red bricks building a new global wall to balance…

Balancings acts on the macro, however, always loose sight of the significance of the health at the microscale. That is the health of human to human interaction not necessarily the infrastucture needed to fuel the machine of the global economy.

How to see what is needed there for health.

Well. Health and wealth.

To know having and wanting, are not mutually exclusive.

To see the many variations of how we fill our cultural pyramids of psychologicsl needs within that dance.

Deir ez-Zor.

Now that is an interesting space. When looking to opposing sides at the macro for instance. The USA and their thirst for oil. The need for power to the people and not all statebased resources fueling the same machine.

Monotony equates to a lack of liberty after all.
