We all need to be busy doing something on this planet otherwise we would all go rightly insane. Some type of busy work is needed for us to pass the time and achieve some sanity. How we direct our busy work is up to us and so far we seem to have survived our earliest inclinations not to go into an insane chaos. Good for us but we must dig deep into why we work. We work as a means to barter. It seems that exchanging work for other goods has a dual good effect, first it keeps us busy and second we can achieve exchanges that satisfy our sense of curiosity. We create things through work that spark the imaginations of others and add to the innovation and progress of our society. Again, good stuff. Yet that we work to stay busy and achieve things, that is still not enough. We must focus our work on not just the passing of time but on ideas and imaginings that advance our species and our planet's other species into the greater area by which we are enveloped. Our work has to advance our society as a smart configuration to where we want our species to become. Just having make work ideas are good for the short term so that many may find work and be a part of what we are hoping to build but our make work must also reflect our vision for our species' future. We humans are all of the same species, and anything that divides us lessens our value as a species. Moving forward into a rational expectation of ourselves requires the logic of common sense and the quicker we get there the better off our next generations will be.
