"FEAR" THE TRIGGER TO OUR PROGRESS IN LIFE

The world without struggles/mysteries will be indeed dull and not an interesting place to be in because, every challenge or struggle comes with something new to keep life interesting. Fear is necessary for our growth and development which shapes us positively.

The world doesn't need to struggle. What is slowly being remembered is that although the monetary wealth of the world may exist only in the hands of the few—true wealth will always transcend money.

Every human has value, and combined we possess greater power than even the richest billionaires.

Greetings, Great Teamsteem

Very interesting this mix between poetry and financial market information.
The criptomoedas are interesting for giving this opportunity to those who grow up with them to help others develop. It becomes an economy with a larger social focus.

Thanks for the opportunity. Good morning!!!!

Amazing restaurant time with Karen, I know you sure are relishing the times she was in Portland, I guess you went back to the food Eden, how was the experience?

As humans, we must exist with these fears and shortcomings because they contribute to our humanity, in a nutshell, man is far from perfect but at the end our empathy and sense of consciousness should prevail over the thing we fear and fight for

Reading your post got me thinking the way we are likely to solve the wealth problems of the world is to give up money and power as ideas we place between individual human interactions.

Whatever we are, make the best of it.

The struggle of life is enough already, so making the best of who we are and whom we are with, is one of the ways of living a happy life.
I think it is noble act to humanity to give, no matter how little.

Life is indeed a great mystery. Our struggles do not define us or our future. How we react to those struggles and how we overcome them will be our marks of success.

I have been able to bless, and I have needed the blessing of others. Such is life!

The struggle for truth and freedom is hamstrung by human weakness. As corruption soars, maybe this is crypto's time to shine. Equality, fairness, and incorruptibility hard-coded.

I just read your other article "Toward A More Merciful World!" aka "What Truly Matters!"

It’s a very inspirational article! It lets me to think about a lot about our sociality! What are we doing here? Human society has been working on thousands and thousands of years to try to be civilized, but till now, we have not achieved it yet!

The world is still not in the same pace! Some people are living on nice car, mansion, luxury life style ......But someone are still struggling to have some clean water, a piece of bread, a shelter to sleep......It’s sad to look around the world!

We had empire before, it didn’t work. We fought
and broken it down ! Then we are having our governments, but it still could not stop war, poverty......Why? Our human weaknesses! Greedy, Selfish, Controlling. Some people are not satisfied for just having enough food to eat or a place for home, they want more than that!

Confucius said “Man's nature at birth is good.” - How did we change our nature at birth? I could not get the answer! But I believe we can improve it and change it! Every single of us have the ability to spread the good spirit like you did!

Steemit is a great place to testify the blockchain system and to see how to improve it! I am new to blockchain and still trying to understand it. But I do wish there is a better way to change the world! Wish the world peace!!

ethereum's price drop possibly due to large ETH Sell-of by Eos, Report says

I had read this before. That's how big EOS will be.

When it is officially open to the public and when ONO comes to light, I could see them easily surpassing the ethereum. Since we have seen the potential of EOS ** without even being ready **.

richest 1% on target to own two-thirds of all wealth by 2030 .

these 14 billionaires just promised to give away more than half of their money like bill gates and warren buffet

In the future it will depend on these billionaires to say the way they want humanity to continue, because if money continues to accumulate in a few, famine and scarcity could begin to affect places in the world that had never before affected.

Now, if these billionaires make a plan of action, they could even make a new country "power" with the wealth and with the technology that these people possess.

Wherever you are, make THE BEST OF YOU!!

Life has a lot of struggles from money, health and so many other struggles that we go through the rich struggle and also the poor struggle and all these will never come to an end no matter what so the only solution is to appreciate the little you have and be happy always never let anything still the inner joy with in you because in whatever situation you are in there is always someone who admires to be like you . Life is what you make it.

And what is life? Some people say that life is theater. Other people say that life is a madhouse. Art lovers say life is a picture. Every person sees this life in his own way. Is there any life at all? Who are we? Or maybe people are just microparticles of another being? And maybe Bernard Verber is right in his books? One of his quotes remains in my memory for a long time: "Life is making a frame, and you paint a picture." If you do not take responsibility for writing a painting, others will write it for you. "

We keep struggling till our death as humans , but what we struggle about, does it really counts, is it on a positive vibe or negative? Questions begging for answers! Great post @teamsteem best of regards

nairadaddy (65) · 7 years ago

Hey @TeamSteem,

I love all the delicate words you have used in the poem. Let me share my thoughts on this line;

...we all struggle.

From the beginning of time immemorial, man has always struggled against the elements. In the stone age, it was a fight with rain, thunderstorm, cold and the animals in the wild.

Gradually as evolution of humanity progressed, our brains have gotten bigger and we have created more intricate silent systems to engineer struggle and social inequality.

The government and top centralized corporations know this that's why they fight cryptocurrency and the blockchain which provides an alternate route for people to escape struggles.

Riches are unevenly distributed and the rich keeps getting richer. Only the blockchain can truly give us a leeway to freedom of life, liberty & property.

Thank you!

Certainly our life is based on fighting!

How much money do the rich have would not be such an issue if the poor of this planet had enough. If no kid went hungry to bed, if no father would kill himself over debts, if everybody had clean water - than billionaire would not be such an obscene word.

Life is the name of struggle. Your struggle give you opportunity to excel in life. It's great that 14 billionaire committed to donate their half wealth to reduce poverty. but will it be helpful? I don't think so. The reasons are involvement of middlemen, mismanagement and even if it's distribute among the needy person. It's just like to make people begger. You can't survive too long on the gift no matter how much it worth have. If you are unskilled money don't support you for long time. so all we need to develop skilfull person who can stand on their feet with their skill.
Crypto is a nice solution which give equal opportunities and have tendency to make everyone life better. So let's excel in life together and spread the message of peace.

Money is still a piece of paper until someone use it for good and iam happy that those billionaires are willing to donate their half income,but the biggest question is " Is their money going to be enough to remove poverty from earth" i guess not because until we have to do work for removing our poverty and most of the poors are not want to work because they are satisfied with what they got and that's the main problem and if people over come this satisfaction feeling then no one is going to remain Poor on Earth,

Siddhārtha Gautama outlined that suffering is part of human existence and that to find any degree of freedom from this truth we have to acknowledge it at a core level. The interesting thing about that doctrine was that it called for aligning our understanding of the nature of the universe around us as close as possible with our systems of logic. By simply observing the OPEN SOURCE nature of reality we immediately begin to take steps towards being free. Reality is open source and simply acknowledging it has extremely powerful implications on us as a people. In today's current global economic climate when one unflinchingly acknowledges the current distribution of wealth and the way the system is arranged then a step happens whether we want it to or not. We see the sham and decide to continue to play along for convenience or decide to begin to peacefully cease to comply. The reality dawning isn't enough in itself but rather a step that if followed leads one to a point where with holding compliance becomes a consistent practice. Grow a garden rather than buy imported food from a shop, place ones money in crypto currency rather than a bank, and cease to jump or feel that the most wealthy hold all the power simply due to a balance they hold of a debt bloated fiat currency. Having the wealth shouldn't allow the wealthy to have possession of what we are as human beings. We only hand that over when we hand over our compliance, allow wealth to drive our fears, wants, and desires. Or even worse begin to admire the wealth gaining attributes of those psychopaths who hold possession of the lions share. Before trade and barter of goods on a community level was the only way to circumvent taxes and control some degree of local economy, now we have crypto currency and the amazing open source technology it brings to the game. I don't think by itself it's enough to eventually level the playing field or end the way we have become enslaved/separated as a people by financial oligarchs and corrupt governments. But it's definitely a step in the right direction. Cool post, and I'm extremely excited about EOS (I hold quite a bit). Where and what the crypto sphere will bring in the coming year is anyone's guess, but it's definitely an exciting time.

Like by eating frozen goods everyday are a Big no no no. It can lead us for certain disease. We should care about ourselves from what we eat.
