Feeling Safe 2-1-17

I was going to write about feeling safe in these uncertain times in different form, but this seemly appropriate.  I have heard that from a few people that they are obsessed with watching the news. Then they tell me, why they feel this need to do this. Yes, were making history of things that have been dissolving for years now. We have seen things that test the very moral fiber of who we are. I told the last person who spoken to me about our new president and wars, along with what is going on in other countries “to unplug from it”. I then said do you want to spend the next four years worried about what could happen or would you rather hold space for peace.

I heard all the but’s, why’s and I said holding a vision of peace seems less stressful. I then told this person that in order to control people fear is created by the ever “what if”. So let’s look at this realistically you stress yourself out, call your local representative and write letters to senator’s demanding change, walking around talking about, complaining or even flip-out; about if want too.  It takes an act of congress to change anything. So how do we feel safe? By knowing that the entire world is watching what is happening and that entire United States is being affected and has been affected by what is happening to people over the last decade and half. (Mind you that is about 325,509,843 in USA)  http://www.worldometers.info/world-population/us-population/ 7.4 the world over and counting.  

This is not the first time in history this has happen and if we use our families and generations as examples of what their lives were during times when they thought about “how it’s all gone to shit”. Would we be reading this now! No.  Now, just image for a moment that you have the power to see a world that finds peacefully ways to resolve much of what is happening in the world. We have seen it, time and time again in history and even in our own lives. Anything that demanded more than we can muster, pushed, pulling at, we have overcome to some degree. Why would we want to digress now! See human’s hearts and minds do not realize that we have more power to change the outcome, than feeding the fear.

See fear has been running rapid long before now. Think about all the fears you have over things, does fear run your life or do you run your life. This brings me to second question someone ask me,” What do victim feel?” This seems like a real dumb thought or question to present to anyone. Have we not all be victims of something or someone one time or another. Have we become so shallow that we cannot image what it’s feels like. See we tend not to see or understand something unless we experience it. But, we have at the hands or words of someone else. Hell, our society promotes hate from being ignorant. They tell us that were different if do something, anything that does fit in the status quo, as everyone else as wrong. Have you ever walked in bad neighborhood or rich neighborhood, surely you would stand out like a weed on a manicured grass!

We see differences because that what we have been told to do. We don’t see a human being, minds or hearts or someone’s child. We see what we want to see. We see what on the outside without ever knowing people on the inside. We don’t know their stories and why they have made the choices that they have in their life.  Maybe the next time you encounter someone that you don’t understand or who seems different than yourself, ask the person!  I am sure you will get much more then you ask for and much-needed education on what the differences are between them and you.  

In this time in history, there has never been more information available to answer anyone one question about anything and everything. The first step is questioning why you believe that there is separation between you or another. Only you can ask the question, who taught me that? So unplug from the fear and starting seeing what is in front you, which is you, and we and us. There is no separation, just your thoughts about! See image of a peaceful world. See peace in encircle the globe and the hearts of all people. ©JJ
