Co-creating a harmonious world!

 Let us move forward into a space of love.  Let us strive to find our appreciation for one another.  Let us once again find our kin whom we can honor and trust and co-create with.  We have a chance to create a new vision.  A new world.  One that is filled with awe and wonder.  One that is filled with simplicity and truth.  We have been hoodwinked into believing that the material, consumerist world is how life should be.  And yet, what do we get for it?  We get to work a job which keeps us indoors, we work all day without moving around, we are sitting under LED lights being bombarded with very discordant frequencies.  We do unfulfilling work, all so we can pay our bills and take 2 weeks of vacation every year.  This model of life is so absurd.  Where is the joy?  How do the masses find happiness inside of the walls of a skyscraper?  How does anyone find happiness sitting at a desk for 8 hours a day doing non-sensical work?  Sadly, we have simply been programmed to see this type of life as fulfilling.  Our entire education system is designed to simply train us to be good little worker slaves.  It does NOT teach happiness, or joy or purpose.  It creates a dead-end vision in which the only substance which is sought…is money!

So – where do we begin?   

How do we re-shape the narrative to move from seeking money to seeking happiness?  Shouldn’t everyone understand this idea?  Don’t we all seek to be happy?  Yes – we all seek happiness, but we have no idea how to be happy in this world.  We are too busy trying to make money.  We are too busy trying to survive and put food on our tables.  My heart hurts when I write about this.  It hurts because it is true.  We work only for the sake of money.  We are slaves to a piece of paper.  And then, we see “rich” people having fun, living in mansions, driving fancy cars and we think – “that’s what I want”.  I want to be rich so I can do whatever I want.  We never realize that rich people may look happy, but they are just as sad as you are…they have external happiness b/c they can afford to buy anything that they want.  And yet, on the inside, they aren’t happy.  They want peace and harmony and acceptance and love just like everyone else.  In many cases the rich actually have it harder than the poor.  The rich can afford every luxury…and yet their heart is still empty.  They are unable to figure out WHY they are unhappy.  They have never looked within themselves for happiness.  They have simply demanded that the external world does everything for them.  They are hollow vessels, floating in the ocean currents, drifting from one wave to the next, never understanding that it is the joy of riding the wave which brings happiness.  It isn’t about the NEXT thing; it’s about being present in the NOW thing!

What kind of image can we present that will affect both the rich and the poor? 

What kind of image can we create which will inspire MANS heart to open? (MAN represents both men and women)

What can we say which will inspire others to change? 

Not everyone will be able to grasp the vision of self responsibility.  Not everyone will be able to FEEL a reverence for others.  Not everyone is confident enough to live a quiet and slow life.  This type of life is only meant for those who are seeking to totally surrender to the joy of discovering life. 

Why do we go, go, go?  Is this simply because we were programmed to work all day, then come home and watch TV all night and then rush around all weekend trying to squeeze in our chores and spending time with friends – rush, rush, rush!…Can we even imagine sitting around at night or on the weekends reading and taking walks and just “Being”, free to enjoy the time with our loved ones?  Or will our mind feel like we are lazy, or not doing enough?  Why do we have so much pressure to do? 

When do we “get” time to think?  When do we get time to play and have fun?  When do we get to totally slow down and ponder life, its purpose and who we are?  The fundamental way of living has been removed from our awareness.  We live in cities with dirty air, our waterways are polluted, our foods have been chemically compromised and our spiritual essence has been stifled by false teachings of a wrathful & controlling God. 

I ask these questions in hopes that it will generate an idea.  A spark!  A memory of a time long since forgotten. 

As a society, we believe that we are an advanced people.  And yet, why do we believe this?  Is this because we have fancy cars and cell phones and technological toys?  How can we be so advanced if we have so many men and women who are sick, homeless and severely uneducated?  How can we be so advanced and yet we have people who went through 12 years of school and still can’t read.   How can we be so advanced and yet so divided as a people?  We have no common goals regarding life.  We only seek power and domination! 

We must consider that the way in which we are behaving as a country, as a planetary consciousness is not beneficial to ALL beings living on this planet.  We must see that in an advanced society, everyone is cherished, everyone is loved and everyone is equal.  In an advanced and thriving society, we are free to create without fear.  Our creations MUST be for the highest good, they must be free of harm.  When creating something new, we must take the time to THINK it through.  If there is a negative ramification from our creation, we must stop and reassess its viability.  We must seek to find total harmony within the creation, or we must abandon it!  We must never make something if it generates a negative consequence.  This sounds very simple.  It should not be difficult to ponder the cause & effect of our creations.  Nor should it be difficult to accept that we must change directions if it is determined that our creations will cause harm to ourselves or our planet.   We must remove the notion that “the means, justify the ends”.  There is nothing which can justify causing harm.   

We must see governments not as our slave masters, but as our wisdom keepers.  The governments are here to help facilitate trade, to facilitate transportation needs and to set the guidelines for how the people can co-create a peaceful existence.  It is the place where the people can present their ideas for improving the life of all people.  The government should NOT be a place of regulations and control.  It should be seen as a facilitator.  The government is NOT a charity and should not be in the business of managing welfare.  In order for us to have a thriving society, all men and women must be empowered to live independently.  Our cities should be lush and green.  We should have natural areas and gardens galore.  Everything should be designed to enhance our way of life, not to stifle it.  We should have areas where fruit trees are growing. Each condo or apartment complex should have its own green spaces to allow for the residents to have clean, fresh and free food.  Everyone shares in the bounty of Gods creation!  Everyone participates in the harvesting of the crops.  There is no need to worry about others stealing your crops, because gardens are everywhere.  We should be able to work together and trade with one another.  Maybe each individual gets a certain allotment of the harvest…and they are free to trade with others as they see fit.  But no one receives more than anyone else.  All are equal!

I realize that this idea sounds like a pipe dream.  It sounds like it is impossible.  But why?  Why is living in cooperation with one another and our planet impossible?  It is only impossible because our government has been in the business of hindering our growth.   It is because of control & money?  It is time for us as a people to recognize that the direction we are currently headed in, leads to our demise.  It is time for us to accept that change is necessary if we are to thrive.  We must allow for our hearts to open and for our love for life to be the reason we change.  All we need is the belief that it can be done.  All we need to do is remove our limitations and take one step forward.  As we begin taking our baby steps towards the new, we will gather more momentum.  When more of us awaken to the idea of unity and oneness, more ideas will come.  We will need our youth to lead the way.  We need our younger generations to help us dream this into existence. 

We must engage our children in this idea.  In our schools, we must ask our children what they want to learn.  We must understand that they are NOT meant to sit at a desk all day.  They need to get up, move around and feel free to express themselves without adults hindering their thoughts.  Children must be front & center in terms of making these changes happen.  They will have many, many ideas for how this can be done.  We need to have them work together to find the solutions and to debate it amongst themselves.  The adults should stand along side them and listen and help to guide them towards an end goal.  Adults must never condemn their ideas…Us “old people” have been programmed by the false world views…therefore we need the children to impress upon us what they see as possible.
