I am in the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
To keep you in the loop on the important going-ons, I should tell you that I am considering opening another bank account to increase the ease with which I can make deposits. I would like to share with you an online conversation I had with a bank representative through live chat:
...after learning about the difference between CDs and savings accounts....
You: well this has been an extremely helpful and convenient way to get information
Jocelyn : I'm so glad I could help!
You: unfortunately it's this convenience and loss of personal connection that is contributing to the degradation of our intrapersonal, interpersonal and social relations
You: but the bad always comes with the good
Jocelyn : Sure I can understand why you would feel that way.
Maybe it's just cause I'm tired, but this made me laugh and laugh for about 5 minutes. I also just went on to tell Bank of America about karma in their online feedback form. I hope they'll start banking responsibly from now on.
For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
This is the law of material nature. We are not above this law. So, what to do? DO NOT CAUSE SUFFERING AND DISTRESS TO ANY LIVING ENTITIES. It is not so easy for us who like to put ourselves at the center of all things, but if we recognize that we are not above this law, peace will surly find it's way into our life. We reap suffering only after we sow suffering. Likewise, happiness comes when we bring goodness into the world.
Pythagoras knew:
"As long as man continues to be the ruthless destroyer of lower living beings he will never know health or peace. For as long as men massacre animals, they will kill each other. Indeed, he who sows the seed of murder and pain cannot reap joy and love."
Oh yeah, I meant to say: stop eating meat. It's just not nice. That's all there is to it. Think about that fatty meat dish that makes your mouth water and then picture your favorite childhood animal as that slab-o-flesh. Less tempting, eh? Animals want to fly atop rainbow glitter unicorns like the rest of us! But for real, animals are life and life should carry on. If you don't believe me, ask Pythagoras. http://www.ivu.org/history/greece_rome/pythagoras.html
It's just basic responsibility and compassion.
....But free will is ours for the taking. Is it better to reign in hell or to serve in Heaven? This is the question we get to answer everyday.
