We live in a world that grinds people down to simple cogs in a machine. Interchangeable parts in a replaceable system. This works great in a marketplace when you order a lawn mower from Amazon, with parts manufactured in China, assembled in Vietnam, shipped overseas into a warehouse, where a robot pulls it, and then shipped to a regional office, which is then delivered to your door. It’s incredible the cooperation if you think about it.
However, in our chase for efficiency and profits, we have become less human-centric in how we think/act/talk to other people. It is at the root of many of our problems today. And yet, we keep finding ways to continue to appease the marketplace.
People are not here to serve capitalism. Capitalism is here to serve us. When we become so narrow in our way of thinking, when we treat people like cogs–it ultimately changes our thinking. In the end, we lose site why we are here and what it is we are capable of doing.
