It was barely above zero F at eleven last night. The weather folks predicted our below zero nights were over, at least for the time being. It didn't seem like they were right. When I went to bed about midnight, it was 1.1 degrees F. Looks they were right, the temperature was rising and there was a southern breeze. It was in teens when I got up and it is now 23. I am pleased to welcome the warmer weather.
Many of us are discouraged that there is not more evidence of a positive change in the world. It seems like we have been waiting for a long time. We are tired of hearing the same old war mongering news and the continuing focus, on everything negative, that may have the potential to divide, or inculcate fear in the individual.
As long as we focus on the decaying world we will not see the changes that are emerging all around us. The media will not recognize the world that is happening until it is obvious to everybody. People are awakening. It is a matter of degree; some people are snapping awake and seeing the dawn of a fabulous new world, others are just beginning to crack their eyes open. Peoples all over the world are throwing off the shackles of fear that have controlled us for eons. We need be slaves, no longer.
Still, many of us, who, otherwise, are far on the road to enlightenment, are in the doldrums. We might be preoccupied with some issue, or too fascinated with the manipulations of the controllers, to give up our focus on them. We don't need to understand, chapter and verse, about how we have been manipulated, to think and feel, along the lines that our controllers wanted. We do need to see that we have been shaped by fear to believe untruths, that helped a certain group of people gain wealth and power. They use our allegiance to our tribe and each other to subvert our thinking. Religion was one of their favorite tools. Religion is man made; it has nothing to do with Source or God.
We will 'see' when we give up fear thoughts and learn to live 'now'. We have a natural drive to evolve. It is as powerful a drive, as the body has to grow, when a child becomes an adult. It cannot be stopped without extreme malnutrition. The malnutrition our minds experience is the ingestion of fear. Our path towards enlightenment will accelerate as we give up fear. Love cannot enter a fearful place. We invite love in by giving up our fear.
If we are sitting here on Planet Earth, waiting for paradise to come, we might just miss it. We must realize it has always been here. We must begin from the inside out. We must let go, all the thoughts of the dreadful world, we are leaving behind. We must create paradise in ourselves and share it with the person next to us. If the person next to us is not ready for our light, forgive them when we feel affronted, and learn compassion, for where they are. We were there yesterday.
For awhile, our lives will be like beads on a string. We will at the happy bead, the peaceful bead, we may find ourselves back at the angry bead, or gloomy bead; then back at the happy bead again. It isn't a straight path. Old issues will arise. We will find things and people we need to forgive. Our drive to grow cannot be quelled. Eventually there will be no more dark beads in our chain. We will see paradise.
People will learn from our example, more than our words. There is nothing like a smiley face and bright eyes radiating joy and happiness.
Happy Friday!
Love and Peace, Gregg
