THE STRUGGLE

I have nothing to say! Everything is up in the air! All the decisions made on the world stage appear absolutely nutty. The empire is madly heading for economic destruction while it flirts with war with all its might.

Despite all of this, the enlightenment seems to be on schedule. Last week an ex-rapper appeared on an evening talk show. I think his name was Common. [Okay, I am not up to date on many aspects of our culture]. He was a very engaging person. He was touting a book he wrote that sounded like it advocated the solutions to all our problems was making all our decisions with love. Wow.

Last night, on the same talk show, an actor was touting a book he wrote which seemed to be promoting the idea of getting in touch with ourselves at a soul level. I think it was a story of his own journey of discovering he was a soul immersed in love and not a body.

There is much evidence that folks are paying more and more attention for the need to heal our problems with love.

The dichotomy is getting clearer, were either in the fear basket or the love basket. Like fish we can leap from one to the other. I can tell you first hand the fear basket is awful, awful, awful.

I think there is still a big bunch of people teetering. They want to believe in love, but they are afraid to be fooled. Their lives have been a struggle and it seems so risky to trust that love is the answer. For these folks, two celebrity types promoting love can be a tipping point. [If one of you readers knows the actor/comedian's name please share it]

The rest of us can help by recommitting, as many times as necessary, to live in the moment with love. It can be difficult, part of our minds are attracted to darkness and the darkness can seem so near. I defeat myself by looking at the idiot box. I think I am above being effected negatively, after all, I just want to see how people think. I think it is true that when I am on top of my game I can watch the news without irritation, but lately I have been getting angry. The darkness feeds on our negative energy. If we can't observe it without a negative emotion, best not.

It is certainly best if we just focus on the love that we see around us. We will build a world created by love. Actually, I think it is already here. We just have to find a way to step in. We are all energy dynamos. Let our emissions be Unconditional Love.

Love and Peace, Gregg
