True Teachers
Granted, our schoolteachers are not who I am talking about exclusively, ‘teachers’ are anyone who qualifies themselves to indoctrinate our minds with information: rules, laws, morals, beliefs, and values. Through guides, directives, orders, instruction or prescriptions. This includes our religious and tribal leaders, world leaders and governments, economists, sociologists, politicians, judicial systems, etc…this list could go on forever…
They are the contributors to our current social status, in regards to our moral standing and value system. I am certain that it was of no concern to our ancestors, to pursue happiness via our current means to the almighty dollar. This motivation is behind most of the aforementioned ‘teaching’ principles, most of which are in awe of the material capacities of technological, corporate and economic power.
Becoming a society ruled by money, status and revenge is not my idea of ‘Heaven on Earth’ and I certainly haven’t bought into the notion that I am powerless or that I have a hardened heart produced by fear and greed. Nor, will I justify these materialistic views and actions, encapsulating the truth in science, politics and economics.
With all ‘teachings’, we should follow the motivation of the message – asking questions to the ‘messengers’ of our current ‘wisdom’....

Brilliant love the work but also your description is very important.
We see unemployed people as people without work not as individuals.
My attempts when I was younger to address this problem were met with deaf ears.
If people can think creatively regardless of making money they will feel better about themselves this in turn increases self-esteem and thus makes someone a lot more employable.
I equally agree with Chris above

And agree with wayofthewarrior.. a true teacher asks us to find our own truths instead of following them without the questions being asked.. i feel blessed to have found someone like this ;-))
tkrosevear replied
and has no problems with allowing the student to exceed in seeking knowledge beyond the teachers’ means…;) glad you have found that liesbeth…xoxoxox
