Everytime I have worked at a place I am always interested what goes on behind the scenes. Being allowed into the `backroom` is quite interesting. I have found out what goes on in the job and the manipulation of it all. So today at work the manager of the store was talking about how we need cannot let people know about the sale starting tomorrow because it will reduce the profits today. Also we need to ask for customer's email addresses because it is important for some reason. She suggests to manipulate them with guilt by saying the word please. Can I have your email please? Instead of can I have your email. Obviously there is a difference there but it is the whole point of purposeful manipulation to get profit.
Walking around the store doing my job I find myself talking to people more and talknig to them as customers, trying to use my words to decieve them to get them to buy shit. I didn't see them equal to me. I saw them less than me through knowledge and information. I had the `backroom` knowledge and they did not. I was `more` than them for having that knowledge. This was all manipulation on our part to try and make a profit We are all in this together!
I related this to politics as politics is also a JOB. They have `backroom` knowlege that we do not have. And are trying to manipulate the populous into falling into the agenda which is most likely more money for them. So blaming politicians for the manipulation existent in the world. I am responsible for the manipulation as I have manipulated, as I have accepted and allowed myself to value knowledge and other people not having that knowledge I have valued less than. I am responsible for accepting and allowing manipulation and thus corruption to exist in this world simply by participating in it at my job. This will not continue simple and plain

Breathing vs Thinking
When I think I am not here and I am my personality it its entirety. When I breathe I am much more stable at placing myself here, and letting everything go and being my body. Even now as I think I become more and more tired and as I am `waking up`, as I breathe I feel as if I have been up for hours. I can focus when I breathe, When I think I am only focused on one thing and that is within my mind being placed somewhere else. When I breathe I can analyze anything, When I think I am very limited to one expression I am limited to what I want to try to be. When I breathe I can look at any situation and express myself in the moment. When I think I am limited to expressing only what I think about, to only be what I believe or think the situation is, and my thinking is just a pre-programmed design of who I should be within this system.
So when I think I am extremely limited in who I am, When I think I am unlimited in my expression, I am here and not trying to be an idea/a thought/ a belief of my experience or the situation that I am involved in. When I think I am trying to match the situation with my thoughts. Right now I am watching a movie and it is `unraveling` and I am trying to understand it, when there is nothing to understand as it is right in front of my face, There is no need to understand anything, and when I am thinking I am trying to piece some puzzles together…but when I breathe the puzzle fits for me. When I breathe I let the movie just play out, I become humble and allow it to unfold for me, As I said it is right before my eyes, and all I need to do is breathe and I understand everything because there is not anything `more` to understand when watching a movie, As I think I am trying to create a definition onto trying to create words onto it, when I breathe as I am watching this movie The pictures and words define it for me there is nothing to think about when watching a movie, yet we all do. So it is pointless to think about anything, as what is is before your eyes. I like the saying when you look at a tree you do not need to say/think tree the tree says it’s a tree by being a tree. So really, is thinking useful? Does it make progress? In reality does thinking assist us in seeing, or does it only create a false interpretation of what we look at, When we think we are trying to see something that is not there. If we stop thinking we are able to see the reality of the situation. We are able to see it clearly rather than through the fog of words and definitions existent within out mind, trying to find the right words and definitions to `clearly` explain the situation but the situation is right at hand being shown clearly to us. So there was just a scene and It looked unfamiliar to me and I was wondering where the fuck is this…what is this. It is just what it is. There is nothing else to it…it is not beautiful it is not ugly, it just is. Thinking allows one to see it differently than what it really is. We all look through our minds eye at the moment and that eye is crowded with words definitions, knowledge, Information and we are sifting through all of that shit to find something to place on the idea experience that we go through at any moment, and then define ourselves according to information/knowledge of what we believe to be an adequate interpretation of the experience/situation.
