food is not the cornerstone of civilization.
we cease to find meaning in the relationship that the rest have with ourselves, so we don't focus all of our awareness into heightening the circumstances that transform those perceptions.
basically, we are free.
not from a social perspective, not from the boundaries that are imposed by society.
not that kind of freedom.
that is not true freedom.
this kind of freedom comes from the inside.
on the higher future, our freedom comes from the inside out.
from not attaching ourselves to a notion of identity that is not real.
it is a construct of an evolutionary journey that has brought us to this point.
the notion of "me" has been necessary to take us to where we are today. we needed our individuality -and the attachment to it that is heightened exactly this day, 7 of april of 2024- in order to get to where we are now.
but it is time to give that up.
and open to a new way of experiencing reality, that comes from the recognition and acceptance that you are not "you".
that those sets of biases, perceptions and, basically, mental patterns that trap you inside the notion of "you" are not necessary.
they are ready to be given up.
a higher vision of the future is one on which freedom is a consequence of the lack of identification with the identity that you have been playing in life.
and the survival of that identity is not the most important thing to do in life.
actually, the survival of that identity is not important at all.
because there is a strong recognition that that is not who you are.
and the main consequence of that is that creativity becomes a necessity.
an existential necessity.
we are here to create, and all of what takes us away from that as the core of our relationship with ourselves, and through that, to life, is what we are slowly giving up.
like a snake that is peeling its skin.
giving it back to nature, for it to alchemize it into the eternal flow of life.
a higher future is one on which we recognize our inherent belonging to nature.
and we embrace that as the core of what we are.
we don't gather around a meal.
we gather around the perspective of having fun.
of embracing the company of each other.
and of seeing who we are in relationship to that.
a higher future is one on which we relate to each other as if we were verbs.
not the nouns that we seem to be stuck in today.
identity becomes fluid. maleable. and ever evolving.
as something that is an aspect of your relationship with life,
but that doesn't determine who you are.

Higher rebounding on the back of people believing in something. You absolutely love to see it. ↑
On a serious note - was awesome joining the Higher Signal call today led by @zinger Being in a meeting with @six @jihad @yekim.eth @kugusha.eth gave me a ton of early DAO energy that I haven't really felt since like 2020. Things are messy and there's lots going on but people self-coordinating is very bullish.
Was this a recorded public talk or?
leaving this calls energized so I can’t fell asleep. higher
would love to join the next one @zinger

my vision of a higher future https://paragraph.xyz/@kithkui.eth/a-higher-future?referrer=0x1234567890
I'm distributing 100k ↑higher (~$10k) to my favorite writing on the following prompt: "Describe a higher vision of the future." Deadline Monday 4/8 @ 12PM ET. 750+ words. Be as specific and imaginative as possible. Goal is to get people writing about aspirational futures that people can rally around. Higher.
I think what we really need more of in the world is people describing SPECIFIC higher worldviews: What are the values? What’s getting built? What do cities look like? What’s the food like? What’s the art look like? What are we directing our attention toward? Reply in this thread with your submission.
Tokens will be distributed across my 4-5 favorite submissions. Will possibly publish in an onchain zine.
how do you recommend we take part? publish to mirror? cast?

Thanks! Sorry I missed that part =)
@les maybe you’ll feel called to expand on your Note
Appreciate you! Will submit an expanded version before deadline.
and here I am doing unpaid labor just because I like the work you do may have to sneak in a short submission tomorrow
hahaha definitely not unpaid sir
I'm just joking but also don't want your money - pay it forward to another writer, I'm honored to be included.
From the insights of @jpfraneto.eth - True freedom is an inside job, not tied to societal constructs. Identity should be fluid, evolving, and non-essential for survival. This shift allows creativity to become a necessary part of our existence. Embrace the verb that you are!
