The dignity of risk is worth preserving

This place is a dream. Only a sleeper considers it real. Then death comes like dawn, and you wake up laughing at what you thought was your grief.
— Rumi
Most of us see that CBDCs are prone to even greater abuse of power. But how do we explain this to normies (once we know devices aren’t within earshot — good luck)?
I usually ask if there is someone in the family or a friend who is a loose cannon or can’t seem to stop getting into trouble. Imagine your access to money you earned being inaccessible because of something they say or do that is not within your control. Just because you are related or have a message from them or your metadata is linked. Now pile on AI digging up the past.
That’s a possible direction this is going. It can further divide humanity at an unimaginable rate — if we allow it. Or we can opt into our own decentralized network as much as possible.
Cryptographers and computer scientists have been warning of this for decades. Privacy is a fundamental human right and CBDCs will allow the exploit of data as a mechanism of control. History rhymes and those with power and control tend to abuse it, causing suffering at scale and stagnating human potential.
We know this but Normies are just getting through work days and enjoying their programming boxes / shopping sprees / nights out on the town. Most of them will likely have to learn through the experience of suffering, which is the most brutal but effective teacher. It is the game of this place. We cannot fix things for others but we can be a beacon when they are ready. In the meantime, we get to experience our inner and outer world of choice.
Buckle up. Because things are moving so quickly in the age of technology that this experiment will play out harder and faster. The weird will escalate until enough wakeup.
To flourish, humans need freedom to create, not monetary enslavement. Stay wild, be courageous, and build the tools. We have already won just by being here now.

Shine Truth in the shadows of deceit 🌞
The sweetest! Pretty amber color from the local flower pollination 🍯
Keep on the pedal and rise above the distractions. FIAT has caused so much trauma that it takes a great deal of focus to detach from broken systems once ready. All we can do each do is clean our side of the street.
Overall, we’re doing amazing. Recharge when needed. And find joy whenever possible ⚖️ https://video.nostr.build/517ff09706bc1a772c1752a4a2ef5d562151e0a9bbadb5b37377ef8fe9b965aa.mp4

How’s your day today? Nice touch.
Worrying is praying for what you don’t want 🕊️
And the sounds of the critters when they reemerge
Love a good thunderstorm ⛈️
Monday catstr, #blooming, consciousness mashup 🌷 
There is a river flowing now very fast. It is so great and swift, that there are those who will be afraid. They will try to hold on to the shore. They will feel they are being torn apart and will suffer greatly.
Know the river has its destination. The elders say, we must let go of the shore, push off into the middle of the river, keep our eyes open, and our heads above the water. And I say, see who is in there with you and celebrate.
At this time in history, we are to take nothing personally. Least of all, ourselves. For the moment that we do, our spiritual growth and journey comes to a halt.
The time of the lone wolf is over. Gather yourselves! Banish the word struggle from your attitude and your vocabulary. All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration.
We are the people we are waiting for!
