The Charlois Life is not a stroll in the park. The act of becoming the best version of yourself requires major effort on many fronts. However, the rewards are great. By doing the work we are blessed with an eternal life of abundance. There is joy that comes as a result of the effort we put in.
I started my journey through the Charlois life in 2018, after a major mental crisis. I was ripe for the undertaking. My whole life was in turmoil. I didn’t know who I was or what I stood for. So, I started seeking answers. What I discovered was a philosophy that is, even now, unfolding before our eyes.
The foundational document is “The Charlois Manifesto.” In this brief work are the 13 principles, 8 roles, an action plan, and finally, a vision, that constitute the philosophy. Published on August 28th, 2023, it will be joined by other writings in the future.
This philosophy is one that I hope takes root and grows. The world we live in is rapidly becoming unbearable. It seems to be all about, the me complex, where it’s every person for themselves.
If we are to survive as a species we are going to have to change. The need for community is great. Civilization came about because of people working together for the benefit of all. This current trend is driving out the good that was made possible by reciprocity.
Take heart. Learn from history. And embrace your brothers and sisters of this advanced species. Our survival demands it.
God bless, and happy journeys.
