I recently came across the term "Vision Holder" on the Internet. Somehow I liked the expression straight away. Our “Vision Holder” might be Master Eder vom Pumuckel. Because he wants to be fair on principle and he just wants to do his job well and ensure that the drawer lasts a lifetime and doesn't get stuck. And he wants to be fairly rewarded for this. Not getting rich, but getting enough so that he can maintain his existence without having to lower the price of the timber dealer. Clear thing actually.
Being fair on principle is uncool. The master Eder is unfortunately no longer popular. Things no longer have a long lifespan because predetermined breaking points are incorporated everywhere and there is then no one who can repair them and there are no spare parts either.
That's the plan, so you can make a lot of money quickly. At least a few.
At a time when we believe that we will soon know the recipe of eternal youth, can grow replacement organs and if nothing else helps us just freeze, how can humility exist before life?
But not only are things thrown away quickly, but also life itself. Whether nature, humans or animals.
We have lost our respect for life. On Twitter you can see comments that people care for their cell phones more than other people's feelings…. yes that's really how it is!
Being fair on principle is actually quite normal. Common sense tells Master Eder what is good and what is bad. And he has an absolutely sure sense of what you can and cannot do. He doesn't need complicated laws and regulations. It just tells his heart how it is right.
And that's the point. We want to bring some of this common sense back into the here and now. Slightly turn back the screw. A healthy Sense of responsibility wake up. We are not alone in the world. And that's actually very nice. Simply be fair on principle.
It is something completely different when a person likes values Ethics, reverence for life, solidarity, respect, commitment, goodness, reliability, Etc…. has internalized.
The problems we have have long since ceased to be solved with technology, progress, digitization or applications alone. It is so important that we start giving real life a chance again.
Can't we seriously believe that everything always goes on as before? Sure we are promised, but that is not possible. The limits have long been crossed. And because people are being taken out of the system more and more, it is becoming increasingly unscrupulous and dangerous.
Our society is moving further and further away from what constitutes real life and happiness. Digitization has enabled the controlling forces to influence us in such a way that we uncritically participate in the "cheap" and "main thing you have fun" development. Regardless of whether enormous damage to nature, people and animals simply has to be accepted.
The damage is irreparable, but many are not even aware of the seriousness of the situation. Or it will continue to refer to the others who are finally supposed to do something. And the Solutionsthat we have remain unused.
Maybe we all need a little more “Meister Eder” in us?
