The Cornerstone of Development

The cornerstone of development is IDENTITY. If a person cannot find his/her identity then they will always be slave to someone or something. I am poor and I need a person with money to help me. Fact is that such a person will not go fwd and develop even if they receive money, or even employment. Unemployment is bad, but it is not the worst of all evils. The giant to attack is the loss of value and identity. The class, social, financial ideological and political systems of our world have classified people in categories. You are from poor class, middle class or whatever and therefore you have a certain amount of respect or authority. Your identity is connected to something external. This will keep you enslaved even if you earn a good income. The rich needs these kinds of employees in order to control productivity and order in the company and so they are not too eager that people find themselves and grow more assertive. Once we find that seed, gift, ability and image that is in us by birth, that natural inclination, and we follow that, we are on the road to freedom and development. We need to find the fingerprint of our Maker in us. Identity is all about knowing origin and purpose for being created. Once that is uncovered, or even just a realization that such a thing exists, it releases energy, passion and zeal to go fwd. Then money is only a means to an end and not the end. Employment is then also seen in a different light. WE ARE NOT ON EARTH TO SURVIVE, BUT TO CO-CREATE.
