Let me put it more starkly. Perhaps with sufficient detail about my situation, the love, wisdom, balance and kindness I seem to be missing can be added.
I am helping to take care of someone who has two of the most seriously damaging illnesses known to mankind. Either major medical condition could result in this person's death any time in the next few years. That death would likely come after a long time of extreme pain while the body collapses in on itself. If there is enough money for health care, the last part of the end would likely be drugged to oblivion as the only way to manage the intense pain of the body's collapse. In addition, the person has several large and chronic medical conditions that are unlikely to shorten lifespan, but they do seriously reduce quality of life.
This person is unable to work. There is some insurance from a previous employer and from the government.
Several times a day this person needs my help on an unpredictable schedule. Sometimes a simple remark or reminder is enough for them to take care of themselves. Sometimes several hours of my help are required. The person has repeatedly commented that without my help, they almost certainly would have reached that sad and terrifying end a few years ago.
Insurance covers very effective treatment for one of the major conditions. The other major condition and the minor conditions have no treatment of any kind. The major condition is well controlled by a medical miracle that has come through science in recent years. Regular introduction of an engineered chemical into the person's body makes possible correct processing of a crucial protein that is not correctly handled in their disease.
The insurance company has indicated that they may drop coverage of this chemical at the start of next year.
Over the counter coverage of that chemical is about $10,000 per month.
Treatment of the other major condition would almost certainly require "medical tourism" to a distant country, where political manipulations of the medical establishment are less ruthless in some ways than where I live.
The other four specialists needed are available close to home and would also be expensive.
I live where there is a mixed economy, with considerable room for business and entrepreneurial profits, and also considerable government regulations at several levels.
I want to make enough money to save a life and improve quality of life for this person I care about with great love and devotion.
I have had to drop out of the workforce, because no job related to my skills and talents could give me the flexibility to take care of this person throughout the day. Also, no job I could conceivably get could pay for someone's help to take care of this person at home, so that I could be out making enough money to pay for that home health care.
In the process, all savings, assets, and credit available have been completely consumed.
This is why I have had so much time throughout the day to read spiritual information and participate in these online discussions.
This is only scratching the surface. There is a cascade of other issues just as serious.
Now I have been driven to ponder ways to find meaning in life. I cannot recall any supernatural experiences beyond some remarkable coincidences now and then.
99% of the Law of One material resonates with my intuition as true, and my valid path. I freely admit the remaining percent might be just as excellent for me, limited only by my reading comprehension or by flaws in my intuitive guidance.
In addition, about 80% of "galactic federation" type material such as Salusa and Bashar resonates for me.
If these materials are indeed true, in 4D+ there will be no more health or money problems. The question is what to do until then, especially if Ascension only occurs after a normal lifespan's end.
Most of the current problems could be solved in today's imperfect world by more money.
Some of my skills could realistically be used to build a business, and make a profit which could quite realistically save a life. With enough money, all the medical problems could most likely be handled well enough to extend this person's life expectancy from a few years of hell to a few decades of comfortable or even abundantly vibrant life.
If one studies the history of business, it is hard to find people who started with less and became more successful in business than Ford. Rockefeller made more profit, but much of it was unethical, his book was a cynical cover-up of his real techniques, and he also had to rely on a lot of good luck. I know of nobody else who has, in one book, a more concise and useful example of business as service than Ford. His book is, of course, not the only one I have read about entrepreneurship. I know of no other single person who has had a more profound transformative effect on economy, society, and business, from a perspective of service to others.
If one wishes to learn how to step up to higher ground as far as possible, the best place to start is someone who has scaled Everest and written a how-to book explaining what it means to put one foot in front of the other. If one wishes to start from nowhere, with nothing, and make a business profit through service to others, in my humble opinion there is no more finer guide to the whole process than Ford's book.
I want to use EVERY technique from Ford's book that I can.
I aspire to take what is now a luxury for the elite, and for large corporations, and bring it to everyday people everywhere. Because of a recent technological breakthrough which I was involved in, when I worked for large corporations, I see how this can be done. Just like Ford did with cars.
I aspire to design something useful for 95% of everyday people, just like Ford did.
I aspire to continuously improve operations, lower costs, lower prices, involve more experts in the production and continuously pay them better, just like Ford did.
I aspire to provide ongoing excellent service with upgrades at production cost, just like Ford did.
I aspire to provide the maximum of service and earn a small profit from the largest number of freewill transactions, just like Ford did.
The only problem with this is, according to you, unity100, this is at the cost of my soul.
Please continue to explain to me how I will go to hell for making this profit. Prevent that tragedy. Correct my awesome sin of wanting to use the resources available to me to serve my fellow man, get paid more than the cost of materials, get rewarded for my courage and ingenuity, and put the money into a better life for someone I seek to serve with love.
Go ahead, tell me how I should watch their pain never end, because profit is wrong.
