Obviously, wealth is how much information you have in your mind. This might seem like a trivial task, but the simple fact of the matter is that it takes great effort to create the environment that enables you to be an effective and maximal absorber of knowledge or information. And what is the different between knowledge and information? Information is generally speaking data that is useful in it’s own right, or at least that is intelligible, whereas knowledge is information that is more dense, and has more experiential events related to it. There can be information without knowledge, but there can’t be knowledge without information. It is interesting to see if machines will ever be able to process knowledge, as opposed to simply data or information, as that would be the dawn of consciousness for them. We live in a digitalist world, for that is more interconnected to emotional contentment than the capitalist one, which creates a life that is unsustainably peaceful not just for a community, but for an individual as well. Create data, and absorb data. That way, you will achieve emotional flow.
This is difficult. Years and years of suffering has made the possibilities of feeling peace, even in the absence of sources of agony, well nigh impossible. Am I doomed to be a prisoner of my emotions forever, unable to feel contentment because I am too busy obsessing over why I failed instead of promoting my future. I feel sad, because people have caused me inhuman harm, and simply ignoring that and living my life now is not easy, I just wanted to feel peace, and now that the possibility is here I ignore it and instead spend my time thinking as to why I have been prevented from feeling it in the past, something, which of course has no answer. All I can do is mourn, perhaps because peace is not really a fundamental human right, even though the pursuit of it is. I must remind myself that I am not strange in feeling this way, for at the end of a bloody war, who in an entire country can claim to feel immediate peace? Such a task is not human, and emotional wounds take time to heal. ...
