do you have the strength of character and courage to change our world?
There is the winner
And the loser
There is success or failure.
It’s this way or that way, but it can’t be both
It’s us or them, but it can’t be both
That’s the old way of thinking that can dissolve in your path,
Which will make room for you to bring a new wave of higher awareness to us
Which could change the way humanity thinks and acts
Yes, you can do that if you choose to
And it’s you who can do this
Because it has never been the job of older generations to discover new ways of being!
OK, should you choose to travel this path, what do you do? How do you start?
You have to begin to
See differently
Think differently
Act differently
Live differently
What would be the basis of this new way of seeing, thinking, acting, and living?
Let use a metaphor from my book, Quest of a Teenage Mystic
Let’s go back to using a tree as a symbol of humanity.
each leaf is a single person,
each twig, perhaps a city or state
the larger branches are countries
and the whole tree then becomes all the people on earth.
All of it is the tree.
What if one twig was to become diseased? All the leaves on that twig could possibly die. Eventually, the rest of the branch may die too.
In fact, the whole tree could die because one twig or branch became diseased
We are all cells that make up the organism of humanity.
If we incorporated this new way of seeing and thinking into our present lifestyle, we would collide with an immediate and glaring conflict of thought:
What would this conflict of thinking look like in your world?
If we are all one and connected, then . . .
Do we hurt another person in order to protect ourselves?
Do we gather more ‘stuff’ at the expense of another person?
Do we cooperate or compete?
Is popularity important if we have to hurt someone to get it?
From this new point of view, our movies and reality television seem senseless and counterproductive
If we are all one and connected, then . . .
Why would we cheat someone to get what we want?
Why would we cut ourselves, rape, or shoot someone?
Why would we want to get revenge on someone?
Here’s the question of the day – could the pain and suffering of all of humanity be rooted in the one simple statement that
We are all connected and a part of each other and everything around us
If that were the ‘truth of life’ could we be causing our own pain?
Do you and your generation have the power to change this?
and if you do
Do you want to use that power to stop the pain and suffering inherent in life?
with great love and certainty that you can do it!
Now use your own life and your social network to go out and change our world!
