I Like People Who Are Open Minded

"....they are as open-minded as a valley, they were open to infinite possibilities, like a turbulent storm.."

We do get wrapped up in ourselves, in the things we do and in the things we think we are. This really is foolishness because we overburden ourselves with stresses of no great importance because these divisions we make are unimportant.

Emptiness is important, it is a lonely thing because everything else tries to achieve something and such agitation finds no peace. The purpose of emptiness is no opinion, and in no opinion we might find peace.

Let those who wish for a short life here be turbulent in their lives, because they will soon get their rewards.

I don’t quite get what you mean.

If we are empty, does that mean we hav no sense of identity and no base to create turbulence from our ideas?

If you cannot answer that, no worries. You have something in what you say, I might be just missing it :)

As they say, what point is there to profit? Who gains most, the capitalist, or the person who has suffered to deliver something he will not gain?
Zeusdelight · 61-69, M
A just profit provides a fair reward to the Capitalist and sufficient reward for the labour’s of the employee to enjoy their life.@Julieeung

How does envy destroy this?
Zeusdelight · 61-69, M
@Julieeung Envy,in my view, comes from an unjustifiable belief that you are owed something more than you get, whether that be more work from thelabourer or more wage from the. Employer.

@Zeusdelight
But employers feel like they "own" their employees because they have given them the Labour and agreed to pay them after it is completed each day, week, or month. And they do not themselves serve their employees by being very mindful of each of their merits. They simply discard them in their considerations by wages but expect more for that money than the worker has cause to give. They forgo expenditures that truly safeguard all involved in the venture in the pursuit of larger profit for cost.

I did refer too Just employers. They exist and are seeen as fools by the employers to whom you refer. They are ones who understand Justice is important in dealing wittth profit and employees.@Julieeung

@Zeusdelight
Justice they say is blind, but in these considerations she must see and be seen to see so that the many who are made beholden to a few see the benefits of their self-enslavement.

@Julieeung Justice is blind to the extent of who it judges. It provides no favouror fear to those who come before it. If an employer who has been unjust comes before it, the law should ensure justice done. Justiceee between peopleissmuch more aa question for negotiation

That's never truly what happens though is it? Money talks, you pay for justice. The impoverished only add further destitution to their lot
Zeusdelight · 61-69, M
It is never reported as happening, but it does happen. Happy just news does not sell papers or air time. Conflictdoes@Julieeung

@Zeusdelight
Conflict is caused by unrelenting and unrealistic desire
Zeusdelight · 61-69, M
No. Conflict is caused by manny things other than that. If I want fish for tea and yo wasn’t steak we are in conflict. How we resolve it. Is up to us.@Julieeung
Julieeung · 26-30, F
@Zeusdelight
That kind of conflict is superficial. If you want fish have it, I will have steak
Zeusdelight · 61-69, M
@Julieeung Any conflict can be superficial. Or it can be very serious. Some friends of mine destroyed their relationship and diet started with that kind of conflict
