Choices continued...
Well, here we are again. The Burmese people are still living under an oppressive regime, and their pro-democratic protests were crushed by the military. Darfur in Sudan is still the worst human rights disaster afflicting the planet this century. Literally as you read this innocent people are being murdered there.
What can we do about it? Protest? Wish? Pray? Fight? Do nothing?
Putting good energy out into the universe through wishes or prayer may make some subtle changes on an energetic level, but the fact is it doesn't stop the slaughter. We can wish all we like for Darfur, Burma, or even for saving the Amazon, but wishing simply does not stop life from being cut down.
So what to do? Do we absorb ourselves in the sadness of the endless problems? Should we all become charity workers and try and give aid to the problem areas? Really, what can we do?
We all want a better world, one of love and happiness. But how do we get it? Contribute our energies to some of the problems appearing in front of us? If you do that, then you have to ignore the problems not immediately infront of you. If you pray for Burma, then you forget about Darfur. If you pray for Darfur, you forget about the Amazon. Well, what the hell can you we do then?
I think the only way we can truly help the world become the world we want it to be is through spreading love in an effort of manifesting consciousness change.
Energies put out into the world spread like ripples. You can choose which energies you wish to spread.
The thing is, if we - the people who really want change - don't try to change the way humankind think, or try to make some changes somehow, then the world is going to continue as it always has.
If human consciousness does not change, it's going to go on like this until we're using nuclear weapons against each other. It's going to go on until we've destroyed all the old forests on the planet out of greed, leaving barren, unbreathable air. It's going to go on until we no longer have a planet we can live on.
The Mayans pointed out 2012 as the turning point for human kind. Maybe they were wrong, maybe they were right - it doesn't matter. The fact is that right now the world needs changing, and we are the people who need to do it.
