Pursuit of Healthy Democracy
Democratic pursuits of healthy constitutions
and health policy discipline
are often associated with growing compassion,
global enlightenment values
for well-being and happiness,
And peace and happiness, in turn,
associated with prosperity, both natural and spiritual wealth,
never one without the other.
This historical association includes integral Earth prosperity
hoped for during the Great Enlightenment
climaxing during the 1700s
as our democratic spirited
and natured USA was busy being born.
Health, like wealth,
can be measured in quantities compared across time,
sometimes trending bigger and more robust
and sometimes sadly smaller and more stagnant,
But, health, as wealth, also feels warm flowing
in effluent rivers and root nutritional systemic qualities
of multilateral WinWin positive compassion,
tossed back and forth in everyday discourse,
sometimes degenerating into LoseLose negative ego-mania
echoing cognitive silos of depressing dissonance.
Personal health, like wealth,
prosperity of happiness and warm nests,
can be thought about as short-term
sufficiency for each moment
composing just one everyday lifetime,
Or more long-term confluence,
multi-regenerational,
mother's warm womb to daughter re-membering grandmother's womb,
back and forth through time
remembered and projected healthy wealth
into our co-passioned nutritional future.
Global democratic health,
like self-governing compassionate wealth,
can be measured in cooperative quantities of lifespans
and consumer market potential
compared to productive efficiency
adding cost of labor
and materials
and energy consumed/produced,
and subtracting pollution
and waste,
multiplied by Win/Lose inefficient competitions
and Lose/Lose energy resources
of ecological/economic global failure,
and more waste of life's integrity potential,
Healthy wealth can also co-arise
compared to Win/Win co-investing compassion trends.
Earth's health, like wealth,
can become more synergetically understood
as qualities of multicultural integrity,
flow,
growing robustly effluent,
affluent nutritional depth, width,
buoyancy, multicultural beauty
speaking polypathic truth to monocultural predation,
degradation from Paradise potential
degenerating to WeedPatch mendacity,
hypocrisy,
lunacy,
rabidity
of narcissistic fear-mongering
cynical twittering
while treating Earth as though a personal AntiGolden Ruled Toilet,
garbage disposal
A rabid rat's nest
rewriting Golden HealthRule democratic constitutions
to best serve northern
and western white patriarchal monoculturing degenerators
of military industrialized hate and threat commodity climates
growing personally
and politically
and economically
and socially unhealthy
and psychologically unwealthy
and way anti-democratic unwise,
Anti-healthy wealth of white male privilege
dispassionately apathetic toward long-term healthy quantities
and wealthy matriarchal flowing qualities
growing compassionately great
and affluently climaxing enlightenment.
