Goal Seeking Organisms
Goal Seeking Organisms
All living organisms are goal seeking. Most, including us humans, seek survival, reproduction, and quality of life as our goals. Humans are intellectually evolved enough to seek more than just the basic needs as goals. We seek more. We seek to know everything we can. We seek to understand the unknown. We seek to attain power and wealth way beyond our need for survival. We seek to question the unanswerable. We seek to find a deep understanding of all that is. We seek a lot of things. As we travel through our time on Earth we gain lots of knowledge, experience many experiences, and add value to the world in which we live. This is what I believe we are all destined for. Our god, our eternal consciousness, our I am, our Yahweh, or our karma wants us to aspire to add value to this world.
This can be done in a myriad of ways. As a matter of fact we add value in as many different ways as there are humans on the Earth. Adding value to our ecosystem, religious community, or family unit is a complex and crooked path that takes us on many adventures in this world. Most forms of life only add value in that they are part of a beautiful ecosystem that produces an earthly system of complicated and functional splendor. Human can do more. We can add value not only in the ways that all other living creatures add value but we can also add value spiritually and intellectually. Humans soar in those two areas. You have to decide how you can add value to your world because we are all different.
Today I will add value to our world by helping others to understand our role in this world. I will teach others about reducing, reusing, and recycling. I will be patient and kind and refrain from using harsh words when my ego gets hurt. I will love others by loving myself. I will cancel negative thoughts and replace them with thoughts of understanding and tolerance. I will tell others thank you so often that they have to say thank you back even if they think it is for nothing. There are a billion other ways to add value but if you do one thing you are accomplishing your goal as a person trying to do the best you can on this fragile planet.
