Sadly, today’s cultural conditioning tells us that the accepted narrative is always right, and that when you know you are right, anyone who doesn’t agree with you or the narrative must therefore be wrong.
The reality is that all of us are the sum of our experiences.
Whatever we personally believe to be right – based upon what we have learned or experienced up to that specific moment in time – may well be right in our own minds. Yet the experience of the same subject or circumstances for anyone or everyone else may be very different, just because of whatever they experienced that led them to that conclusion first.
The reality is that we can all be right based on what we know. But at the same time also be wrong in respect of what is right for us all.
Never judge anyone – no matter how you might feel.
Everyone has to change their mind about what happens next.
Even if you believe you are already fully ‘in the room’, the chances are there are things that you will need to change your mind about, or at the very least open your mind up to, too.
Changing your mind, when you believe that what you already know is right is very hard and should not be underestimated on anyone’s part.
Seeing the different way and then having the courage to take the leap of faith necessary to embrace it is also what it takes each of us to lead – even if we are only leading ourselves.
Through the process of all of us embracing that step, we will all be contributing to the overall process of change and the step that we take is where the leadership really begins.
Nobody who genuinely understands or has any idea what experiences we will now be required to go through, will make light of anything that might or could happen to any one of us next. They will certainly not suggest that theres is anything easy about what lies ahead.
To maximise and make the very best of the opportunity that lies in front of you and indeed all of us right now, there are a few things to bear in mind that might be of some help.
They are a reminder that as soon as you are aware and committed to doing what you can to help everyone through this process – including those who currently reject this direction and may be the last to awaken – that WE all have to have the integrity to be our best, whatever the situation. Especially when it appears that change has stopped, or may even seem to be going the wrong way.
There will be many more, and the way they are written may not make immediate sense to everyone.
However, they are written and offered with yours and everyone’s best interests at heart.
They follow as the remaining chapters of this book. They are:
There is nothing insignificant about the process of change and the transition from a money, wealth, influence and power-based culture, to one that values and puts People First.
Frameworks that allow everyone to act, think and to behave like the adults that they are will be the very best way to help us all to survive and thrive through the Great Reset and to then play our part in establishing the New Earth or New World that is waiting for us beyond.
We may not be able to see how a very different way of living and relating to others would work from where we are stood looking at the future right now, as the culture we are experiencing today has taken over everything and considering anything contrary to this can easily leave us feeling overwhelmed.
If we were all consider that everything or the system that we know came into being through an act of domino toppling or through a domino effect, the reality is that it is that the circumstances now exist where we have the opportunity or choice to pick up the last domino that fell and indeed every other domino too, and then set off a chain reaction that switches our way of life and the way that we live to one that everyone will find good and happy to live in.
The last or first domino – depending upon which way you might look at it, is the one that is both key and essential to providing us all with the opportunity and option to make and take every other right choice.
The only suggestion or proposal that A Community Route itself will directly make, is that of a Framework For Freedom is this one.
It is being made, because in a people-first world, its adoption (or the adoption of something that is very similar) is the difference between putting money or People First. It is therefore the defining choice.
The First Framework For Freedom (or The Basic Living Standard) is as follows:
That a happy, healthy and balanced life will be affordable and sustainable for everyone, without the need for debt, subsidy or government handouts of any kind, when receiving the minimum, most basic or living wage for working the equivalent of a full working week.
If you remain tied in your beliefs to the current system and money-based culture, it is unlikely that you will be able to see the defining value of this Framework.
Indeed, you may not even conceive that such a Framework is viable and would certainly not be something that would be supported by choice.
However, if you will take the time to think and work this through, and picture the reality that people, businesses and all organisations must consider this obligation in each and every action or transaction that they make or undertake, you will soon begin to see how the many dominoes that follow this first one will then soon begin to fall.
Please note that The First Framework For Freedom (The Basic Living Standard) is not the same thing as the Universal Basic Income (UBI), as proposed and being tested in some Countries today.
In the context of the Top-Down, money and wealth obsessed system that we are currently living in, the idea of a Universal Basic Income is a good one. However, UBI relies on the ‘ we can create money out of nothing’ mantra that is key to the current Neoliberal or FIAT based Monetary System.
This means that every time pretend or created cash is added to the total amount of money that is in circulation already, the value of UBI payments would themselves fall in terms of what they can buy the recipient, as both the value of the money that the poorest and most vulnerable have becomes a smaller part of the overall pie, and inflation continues to push the cost of living further and further up.
Any help or benefit to recipients would therefore be short-lived. Regrettably, as part of the overall picture, the process of monetary devaluation that UBI will help to speed up will itself just contribute to an overall financial system collapse – that could be only a short time away already.
People need the ability to be able to sustain their lives fully on the lowest full-time wage and in a people-first economy, everything will point in that direction and contribute to making it work.
The point sadly missed by many is that the solutions to the majority of the problems we face are not for any one of us, as individuals, to find answers to or come up with the right fix.
Today, we have specific groups, whether that be politicians, banks, businesses, elites or others, attempting and in many cases succeeding in dictating public policy and so-called solutions to problems (that their behavior has usually created), on the basis that they believe their ideas are best for everyone.
Regrettably, although many of the speakers and publicly known influencers that we can all see as recognising the need for change have their own ideas and solutions, and in many cases appear to provide an alternative, these ideas are also made in isolation.
Although the results from them being in control might appear different, if we were to simply exchange what we have now for what loud voices and false prophets are offering us instead, we would inevitably end up with many more problems that would only get progressively worse – which would basically be exactly the same thing as we have and experience now.
People and their communities must be supported to make all of the decisions that affect only them.
Amongst those decisions must be the selection and appointment of those public representatives who will represent that community when decisions are made about anything else.
Regrettably, the point has been lost today, that as long as anyone’s behaviour is not hindering the freedom of others, they should themselves be free and unhindered to do and behave in any way they like.
The obligation of the community should only ever be to manage and to provide resources, rules and regulations that work for and in the best interests of that community and nothing more.
These Frameworks for Freedoms must always be universal in nature, so that they treat each and every person exactly the same. They should ensure that no person is given either an advantage or disadvantage if they should find themselves with nothing in terms of material wealth, or if holding no material wealth should indeed be their voluntary choice.
In its simplest and most easy to describe form, a framework rule would be something like that we today understand as the minimum wage – where EVERYONE must be paid that minimum hourly rate, no matter what job it is that they do.
Universality does not entertain prejudices. Nor does it recognise the differences that today’s social conditioning does.
So, no matter how we might have been previously told or required to identify someone – whatever the reasons might be, those reasons that we use to attribute social value to them in some way today, must now be discarded and left behind.
EVERYONE enters and leaves this world the same. Frameworks for Freedom must ensure that no rules exist which allow anyone to define themselves as being different to others through any position or wealth that they have attained or have been gifted in others ways.
Success and apparent happiness doesn’t make anyone better than anyone else. Genuine success and happiness is defined by the individual and their own reflections. Not by anyone else or by the world outside.
Frameworks for Freedoms are the doorway that will allow everyone to thrive and achieve happy, healthy, safe and secure lives – if they so choose.
The real power and responsibility of government is to provide these Frameworks and to protect them. Nothing more.
