Creators live the tales they are born to live.

Society is a machine in constant need of cogs. A cog is a human who thinks, acts, believes, defends, and lives as he/she is raised to. We give awards to straight “A” cogs and gold watches to long-term working cogs.
YOU MIGHT BE A COG IF…..
- you went to public school
- you have debt
- you live with stress and/or loneliness
- you believe facts and truth are synonyms
- you feel shame or express blame
- you think a leader will fix the machine
- you think today is a result of the past
- you work to keep up appearances
- you believe you have to work hard for a living
- you feel it is better to give than to receive
- think some things are unforgivable
Four of the Machine’s Most Damaging Tales:
- Rampant consumerism–the leading suppressant of happiness (The World View Survey)
- Do it yourself, be strong–loneliness epidemic with over 30,000 people committing suicide every year in the U.S.
- Do it all, do it right, do it now–six of the top killing diseases in America are stress-related (U.S. Health Statistics)
- Never admit you’re wrong–50% of marriages end in divorce and 68% of our children are NOT living with both natural parents (U.S. Census)
Your happiness is just a story away!
