Transformation time on planet Earth
Transformation time is upon us, all of us, everywhere on this brilliant planet we share, this beautiful earth.
We learn more about the world around us by the minute. New creations, inventions, and discoveries are showing up every day. The earth itself is transforming before our eyes, and we are being reminded to make more thoughtful, conscious, and intelligent choices about how we treat our home and the other beings who live here with us.
The great news is that the really big changes are happening within us. Opportunities for personal spiritual growth and awareness are endless.
With spirit there are no borders
Can you imagine a day when human beings can learn to live together without needing to judge, divide, or exploit each other?
Perhaps on that day, we won’t need to compartmentalize each other. When we choose to work with spirit, value judgments won’t be made based on how much wealth a person has been able to amass, or on the color of his skin, the language she speaks, the way each chooses to dress.
We won’t make it our business to worry about the relationships people choose to have, and whether their choices pass judgment.
Why I am consciously optimistic
Consciousness is awareness. Deciding to be conscious is a choice.
Sometimes it seems like there is no reason to be optimistic, and that choosing optimism is a delusional act.
When you become aware of what's really going on around you, and allow yourself to finally see clearly, it can often seem bleak, at first. What's worse is that you might have to let go of some of your cherished illusions, the ones in which you really immersed yourself.
You may have to destroy old ways of seeing and being, if you want to become fully aware of what’s happening inside of you and around you. Destruction and disillusion are part of becoming conscious.
