This is a Charter of Wellbeing for the Earth.
Preamble
We the people:
have created a mindset of right versus wrong, one feels positive the other negative.
We the people:
live on the earth with incomplete knowledge and what we don’t know we either fear, plead ignorance or assume we are right until proven wrong.
We the people:
practice our assumptions until they become fact and leave truth unquestioned.
We the people:
divide, and this becomes the rationale of war from the personal to the international level.
Until we the people:
question ourselves not in terms of right and wrong, but in terms of what serves wellbeing and what does not, we are destined to repeat our mistakes.
Well-Being Charter
This charter
is a guide to wellbeing for all on earth.
To love
is to care about wellbeing, it is not obsession;
To give
is to share, it is not charity;
To empathise
is to feel understanding for another, it is not sympathy;
To know
the truth is to face yourself, it is never about the other.
Truth changes as consciousness expands and new truths become visible;
Empowerment is to take responsibility
for your actions, to live, express and act in the world in a way
that does not take power away from another.
The greatest power is no power over others,
practicing non-violence and speaking the truth;
To live together
is to experience the joy of learning from others,
it is not to avoid contact but embrace differences.
To share space fairly is to experience democracy;
To respect
another is to accept they have an equal place in this world
and to value their humanity;
Courage
is to face issues fairly and not walk from responsibility;
Responsibility
is the ability to respond, it is not by greeting challenges in silence;
Justice
is to be just in the moment, the courts are to redress injustice;
To work together
is to join in a cooperative enterprise for a shared goal,
it is not about being better than, exclusionary or slavery;
To live in a family
is the microcosm of the human family,
the family is supportive of each other, a shared responsibility, equality of opportunity, conflict resolving, respectful and held together by loving bonds.
It is not to be used for personal gain or an imposed dictatorship;
Male and female
are more similar than different.
Emotional awareness and physical strength are biological compliments for survival of the species
not biases for assertions of superiority or inferiority;
Diversity is not equality
for there are no two entities the same.
Diversity is not difference it is uniqueness and is the component parts of life on earth;
Community
is the common unity of human groups.
For unity to occur each person must respect equally the space of the other
and respect their right to freedom of movement and expression;
To live in stewardship
on the planet is to take responsibility for all life on earth without disrupting
genetic imprints,
To absorb water, wind, earth and air to balance sustainability;
Love and compassion
is the highest calling,
it is the purpose of life
on earth.
