Balancing Needs and Wants When the World is Burning

Do you know the difference between NEEDS and WANTS?

Needs

Needs are something we cannot live without. Wants are objects and ideas that people can live without but choose to bring into your life. Sounds simple. It is not. Propaganda and bad parenting have led us to not understand the difference. 

People need food. They also need shelter, clothes, water, and a place to live. In our current expansion of awareness, we also depend on utilities such as internet to communicate, electricity to run everything, along with water/sewage to keep us physically healthy and clean. We need mental stimulation to grow appropriately alongside education on how to survive the world. 

Every parent has their own way of doing this. We know as a society, too much harshness or any kind of abusive tactics from the parent, and the child is damaged. We know you go too far the other way it leads towards violence, entitlement, and owning other humans, another form of damaging the child. Finding the balance between the ego and the id is a challenge all humans face, but it is vital to understanding the difference between needs and wants. 

Wants

Wants are those things that make life worth living and break up the boredom of surviving. This can range from an extra splurge for a certain face moisturizer to going on that trip you have always wanted. Neither of those things come from a place of negativity. It is only when these things cause harms to ourselves or others, should they be denied.

Desiring objects or experiences are normal, everyday feelings. Denying these emotional pulls to fulfill something can be a good thing if they stop harm from falling upon others or yourself. However, they also drive us to create some of the most amazing of humanity’s innovations.

Magic or Manifesting

You’re probably wondering why? Why am I reading about something I was taught as a child? Because understanding the difference allows to prioritize needs first before we chase those wants. That’s why you are reading this blog, to learn a path towards manipulating magic to manifest your wants and needs.

Each of us do this in our own way. For me, it includes meditation and daydreaming as part of my spell work. I use chaos to thrive as that was what I was born into and the environment I raised myself in. I built a life of calm, stable environment that allows me to chase other dreams such as writing or sharing my knowledge of the old magics. 

We are light particles stuck in flesh. All of this is a hologram we work together to create. The more define the rules, the clearer the picture. We are here to create. That’s all. Some of us choose to create more light through acting as parents, artists, and innovators. Others choose destruction through greed, division, and self-serving actions. 

What does your path look like?

You can’t just hope and dream. You have to take intentional action towards the things you are trying to manifest. For me, it is a career with purpose that moves us towards a healthier, steadier, and lighter future. 

The way we see it at the GUC is we have enough. We are just not respecting Mother Earth or distributing her gifts in a fair, equitable manner. How would that look? 

Simple, make sure every child has all their needs met. Make sure each child knows the reasoning behind each of those things we require of citizens of this planet such as brushing our teeth and showering. We also need to define our own culture beliefs and behaviors for the youth. Otherwise, they will be brought in by the propaganda being peddled on the internet and media by those trying to steal our power. 

This might sound like some white Chinazi bullshit. We are not calling for less, but more diversity and comprehension. We need to highlight the diversity required to create new and beautiful ideas. Understanding the context behind the art of life as a boundary is vital to having the full life experience. We need to know where we are positioned and our preferences to go forward in this flow of infinity. 

Here in this third dimension of existence, we have the ability to interact and effect the materials around us. But we are not the only forces using these finite resources, which means we share them with others. Doing so in a way that does not come back to us should be the goal. Knowing the difference between needs and wants, help us reach that goal.
