Watch This Thought-Provoking short – I am Nature
I am Nature Here is this short, well done film campaign by WWF, I am nature. For WE ARE NATURE. It is something I always repeat though out my blog and vlogs. I believe we lost connection to nature, lost connection to the beauty that this Earth and thus we have lost connection with each other as we have now become walking corpses devoid of life. Do we truly appreciate this gift of life that we have or do we go on to waste every minute of every second that we have on the mundane. Do we truly live life or do we just simulate how life is lived? In…

MUST WATCH: Century Of The Self (Documentary)
Century Of The Self A 4 part , but great documentary, the century of the self illustrating the way we are manipulated into becoming a world of consumers. We have allowed our subconscious to continually be controlled. We are told what to buy, how to dress, and ultimately how to live our lives. Do you ever stop to ask yourself if your thoughts are your own or do you wear what you wear because it was your choice or do you wear what you wear because it was subliminally sold to you to wear. Are your choices your own and I think that is something we have to be deeply…

WATCH: The Story Of Your Enslavement
Here is a short video by Stefan Molyneux talking about our enslavement. I for one agree with his assessment and I believe many others do as well in certain aspects. People do know that they are hopelessly enslaved but many just continue to allow themselves to be herded like the cattle that we have become. While many others refuse to see the chains that bind them. We think we are free, but are we really? They tell us what to think, how to feel and we are easily manipulated into conforming and obeying into this mundane bullshit illusion that we live in. We are controlled into a way of being,…

WATCH: First Earth (Earthen Homes Documentary)
I wrote a blog on my vision on a sustainable future which can be seen by clicking here. I think we need to change the way we look at shelter as all we see is the big house with the white picket fences and the giant swimming pool. Living in debt all our lives, paying off our giant homes. Using materials that leave a negative impact on our environment. So many viable options, as I wrote in that post I mentioned before. From cob to hempcrete. So many options, but we limit those options by the limits of our creativity. Here is a documentary on earthen homes which I enjoyed…

He has many wonderfully done animated shorts on his website which you can visit by clicking here. In this video entitled Man , we look at man’s relationship with the natural world and how fickle have we made this world. We seek to be the dominate species and we seek to exploit everything around us. Every other species is just a commodity, just a casualty of our own ignorance. We go on thinking that the world revolves around MAN. Again, thinking that we are on top of the pecking order and we…
