1. If, as people, our job should be: to first, see the roots of suffering; second, do no harm; third, share; fourth, help; and fifth, optimize health and wealth; and if we acknowledge that we sometimes do not use powerful enough [or even the basic] tools [goods and/or services] to see the roots of suffering; and if we acknowledge that even if we have seen the roots of suffering, that we sometimes do not use powerful enough [or even the basic] tools [goods and/or services] to do no harm; and if we acknowledge that even if we have done no harm, that we sometimes do not use powerful enough [or even the basic] tools [goods and/or services] to share; and if we acknowledge that even if we have shared, that we sometimes do not use powerful enough [or even the basic] tools [goods and/or services] to help; and if we acknowledge that even if we have helped, that we sometimes do not use powerful enough [or even the basic] tools [goods and/or services] to optimize health and wealth; then to what extent [and for what amount of time / what number of people] are we, as valued members and trusted leaders of our glocal communities, [rural to urban; on earth +/- on the internet] obligated to alleviate suffering in the meantime while we search for and/or build so that we can then begin using powerful enough tools?
3. A Tool for Optimizing Health and Wealth:
4. Who am I? What is/are my job(s)? To what extent am I using tools for communication optimally? To what extent am I consuming food optimally? To what extent am I consuming art optimally? To what extent am I hearing truth? (-) To what extent am I greedy? (-) To what extent am I angry? (-) To what extent am I ignorant? (-) To what extent am I attached to non-living things? To what extent am I connected with other living things? To what extent do I trust myself? To what extent do I trust my family? To what extent do I trust my community? To what extent am I seeing truth? To what extent am I producing art optimally? To what extent am I producing food optimally? To what extent am I using tools for transportation optimally? To what extent am I using tools for recycling optimally? To what extent am I using tools for recreation optimally? To what extent am I using tools for resuscitation optimally? To what extent am I resting? Where am I on earth? Of what communities am I a valued member and who is/are my trusted leader(s)?
5. A Tool for Helping:
6. What help - and how much - do I need? How am I alleviating suffering? How am I searching for and/or building optimal tools? What help - and how much - can I give? With whom do I live? How many people and for how much time am I helping?
7. A Tool for Sharing:
8. With whom am I sharing? To what extent am I sharing goods? To what extent am I sharing services? How am I sharing truth? Where on earth am I sharing? Am I sharing on the internet? What is my mean (e)value and how am I sharing?
10. Communication and community are tools for peace. Home and family are tools for living. An eye and a (corp. of) person(s) are tools for seeing the roots of suffering. A farm is a tool for sharing. A city is a tool for helping. Community is a tool for optimizing health and wealth.
11. Global community members are people who share tools and truth on earth +/- on the internet. The less healthy, the more help that is needed. The more wealthy, the more help that can be given. People who resuscitate evaluate health.
13. If, as people, our job were today: to first, go home [and question; and eat!] ; second, (e)valuate [using *Star] our [and each other’s] glocal trusts [communities +/- (corps. of) persons +/- families] ; third, find [on maps] people who need help… …and fourth, connect with people who can give help; fifth, build our networks of glocally trusted [community +/- (corp. of) person(s) +/- family] leaders; and sixth, communicate [and question; and eat!] ; then to what extent would we live in peace today with less suffering tomorrow?
