Nothing Can Enter Your World Unless You Invite It In ~ No One Is A Victim Of Life


If you remove all the Jews, Arabs, and immigrants from this picture, there would be no people.

Whether it is harmony or disharmony, nothing can enter your or my world unless we invite it in. What we focus on grows. We have a choice. We are not single-subject vehicles of life. Rather we are multifaceted individuals radiating the energy of our feelings spiritually, emotionally, psychologically, physically, politically, socially, financially and in many other ways into our world. We are whole. We are One.

There will always be chaos, dysfunction, and lack of peace in this world. This has been the case since its first inception eons ago, echoing out into the ethers and astral realm. Volcanoes belched out destructive lava. Cataclysmic floods ripped apart the earth until its new land masses were unrecognizable, continuing to this day reshaping coastlines everywhere.

Even in when Jesus was born, Herod sought to kill him. As a result Joseph and Mary had to flee to Egypt with Jesus, making them immigrants in an unfamiliar land so he would not be slaughtered along with the rest of the infant boys, age two and under. They were not put in cages. They were met with hospitality for years in their home away from home before it was safe to return. Still, they decided to settle in Nazareth so as not to bring too much attention to Jesus as he grew.

All of us are no different. People of every race, ethnicity, culture, color, creed, gender, and age are all part of the human race. We are all part of nature. We can be volatile. We can be peaceful. It is what we focus our attention on that makes the difference. I can choose to be part of the problem or the solution.

Somehow we expect perfection in our lives and in our countries as if we just think, speak, and do the right things, we could railroad things through. Nothing could be further from the truth. We cannot manhandle, manipulate, guilt or force others into our sense of perfection with the crack of a whip. That’s not how energy works.

What drum are You beating?

We look at the political scene and try to manipulate outcomes by concentrating on what is wrong in order to make it right. What we focus on grows. Concentrating on what is wrong is the wrong basis to build what is right, useful, and sustaining.

We look at spirituality and religions and see what is wrong in the hopes of making them right. Again we miss the mark we so desperately seek to achieve. We erroneously think, “If only people would think, say, and do the same as me then it would all work out.” This also is not so.

Why?

Notice nothing happens when any thought crosses our mind. It is only when the feeling behind the thought grows that it motivates us into action. It is the feeling that is the impetus to change.

What?

Isn’t it my brain, common sense, my thoughts that generate my world, experiences, beliefs into action?

No.

Nothing happens with any thought until the feeling of any subject inspires us into action. Without feeling, we ponder and ponder possibilities. Our thoughts will go round and round the merry-go-rounds of our minds until we decide, inspired by our feelings, to do something about the matter.

Guard your feelings with the shield of awakened consciousness. Feelings ignite all your thoughts into actions. Take the care of a gymnast training for the Olympics, or the runner training for a marathon the same as you prepare your future actions by the life-giving spark of your feelings. How many of us have regrets over our actions when we fuel the renegade feelings we choose not to control?

By the use of our free will, we decide which feelings to follow up on and which would be better not responded to. Decide never again to respond to anything. Instead, consciously decide how you will act, with empathy and compassion or not, with judgment or non-judgment, etc. It is in this conscious decision that we build up or tear down. Nothing can enter your world unless you invite it in.

Feelings are not right or wrong, they just are. However, if you do not like how you are feeling, change how you are thinking. They go hand in hand. Just realize that the power to do anything comes from the feeling, not the thinking. Just like feelings, you can change your thoughts. You are in the driver’s seat of you.

You are not the victim of neither your thoughts nor your feelings. You are in control of them. They are not in control of you. People who play the role of the victim of their lives simply have not yet learned this healing and life-generating principle.

The solution is so simple, yet our misguided feelings distract us to the point of bringing on our own dysfunction, personally, spiritually, politically, financially, socially, as well as nationwide and worldwide. It is when we lack self-control over our feelings that we decide to focus on where we do not want to go rather than the choice to foster and fertilize the ground where we do want to walk.

If only we would use our free will to focus on the good we see as opposed to the bad that captures our attention. Pour your feelings into positive thoughts, energizing them with the personal power to do good.

Pouring your feelings into negative thoughts that harm others physically, psychologically, emotionally, spiritually, politically, or financially is the biggest recipe for failure. It is self-sabotage in the highest degree. It is a recipe for disaster. It is only a matter of time before the misdirected energy is met by its equal and opposite force.

Try this instead; transform your world, your personal space, your belief system, your neighborhood, your church, your work environment, your social circles, your political and financial aspirations with life-affirming, soul-inspiring goals.

Change your focus from countering the negativity and failure of broken systems to promoting healthy equality, fairness, kindness, loving and peaceful actions. In this way, you begin taking steps forward, healing your own lives and the lives of all around you. From now on, pay no attention to what you do not want to grow.

This works in all areas of life, especially at this time of the COVID-19, Sars Co2 epidemic blanketing the world. The energy of closing your eyes and focusing your feelings on denying the reality of the death and destruction of life at this moment in history will only grow more of the same if that is your focus.

Once your feelings motivate you to whole and healthy aspirations and problem-solving remedies, you will find a quicker advancement into solutions to COVID-19 and every other problem that benefits you personally, as well as in your family, neighborhood, country and world.

Yes, others with dark, self-serving and greedy agendas will continue. It has been this way since the beginning of time on this planet. Tsunamis and worldwide cataclysms will continue to manifest as they always have. Still focus on solutions over problems.

Using your free will to fuel feelings of rage and discord will ultimately sabotage every endeavor. It is only a matter of time before that house of cards crumbles. It always has and always will.

As a counselor, I never advised punching that pillow to get all the anger out, because fueling those negative feelings only fuels more hate. Yes, you will be exhausted afterwards, but you will have wasted a great amount of time not moving forward. That is only a diversionary tactic.

You cannot move forward by looking backwards. If you have been in counseling for years, you are with the wrong counselor. When you are finally ready to heal, (sometimes we are not ready, willing, nor able to heal), then and only then will you see the truth to what I am stating here.

We need to be in balance with every aspect of our human being, not only spiritually, emotionally, psychologically, physically, politically, socially, financially and in many other ways in our world. As a fully formed human, we all need to be in balance and foster good over evil. We reap the seeds we sow in this world.

If we do not like what we are seeing and hearing around us, it is up to you and me to plant everlasting seeds of love, light, peace, joy, happiness, health, faith, equality, forgiveness, empathy and understanding just as Jesus did when he walked this earth beginning so many Christmases ago.

God Bless Everyone Everywhere

The Rise And Fall Of A Narcissistic President ~ Bigotry Is The Opium Of The Ignorant ~ The Healing Of A Nation


Uniting the country means we do not only take care and heal red states or blue states. We are the United States of America. We are all one and are much more alike than any difference we profess. Now is the time to build us up in peace, empathy, compassion, kindness, and brotherly love. There is no difference in our humanity, in the color of our skin, our countries of origin, the language we speak, our gender, our age, nor in our abilities and/or disabilities. All Is One.

Bigotry is the opium of the ignorant.

The narcissistic personality disorder masking as unbounded greed and bottomless selfishness of the President over the past four years, validating a deep undercurrent of systemic racism at the helm, has been a schooling of handicapping traits revealing the very best decisions for himself, reaping huge financial gains at the expense of the democracy of the United States of America, racial equality, national security, and the death of nearly a quarter of a million citizens, among other atrocities.

To the narcissist Commander In Chief, addressing the COVID-19 pandemic is paramount to admitting failure, failure of his dismantling of the Pandemic Watch Team, failure of pro-active measures that could have been taken as early as January 2020, failure to treat immigrants fleeing dangerous situations with empathy and compassion, failure to keep immigrant families together rather than heartlessly separating children from their parents – putting both in separate cages – in the process losing 545 children’s parents, and failure of countless backwards-nationalistc goals much to the diminishment of the standing of the USA on the world stage.

Prejudice is a mental illness, not an opinion. It is emotionally blinding. Like environmentally and family seeded biases, some mental illnesses are passed on generationally. It is still a mental weakness to mentally agree and accept prejudice as a valid belief system, reacting to others not like themselves with cruelty in thoughts, words and actions.

Cults use this same principle to inflict fear, obligation and guilt (FOG) as manipulation techniques to get the followers of the group to conform to the will of the deformed group. Notice the cult of followers of the President of the last four years, following fiction over fact, myth over science, and accepting the $100 paid to them for selling their souls for the almighty dollar.

If money is the bottom line of democracy, then a host of unholy thoughts, words and actions can appear as good or normal when they are not.

Like many diseases, healing can only take place when we acknowledge the disease, apply the healing balms of accurate knowledge of history, and the best therapies, procedures, and medicines. We need to address the systemic racism raging across this country from shore to shore, in order to truly be the melting pot of the world.

We the people will not be silenced.

We the people will not be bullied.

Divisive ideologies have attempted to divide and conquor before, without success.

Cartoon from 1860 with Presidential Election showing three of the candidates (left to right) Republican Abraham Lincoln, Democrat Stephen A. Douglas, and Southern Democrat John C. Breckinridge – tearing the country apart, while the Constitutional Union candidate, John Bell, applies glue from a tiny, useless spot. Library of Congress, Washington, D.C.

Massachusetts Senator Daniel Webster gave a speech known as the Second Reply to Hayne, where he famously thundered “Liberty and Union, now and forever, one and inseparable!” In Webster’s speech on January 26, 1830 before the United States Senate, he described the federal government as: “made for the people, made by the people, and answerable to the people.”

President Abraham Lincoln loved these words so much that he re-phrased the conclusion of the Gettysburg Address with, “… and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.”

President-Elect Joe Biden smartly gave one of his 2020 campaign speeches from Gettysburg, rich in its symbolism.

People are resilient. The country is resilient. We are all in this together. While we have our own viewpoints on important matters in running our democracy, we are one United States of America. We are all One.

We are more alike than the differences we profess. We all need to think, speak and act in ways of the greater good.

I AM my brother’s and sister’s keeper.

As a Christmas present this year, let us unwrap the gifts of peace, empathy, compassion, kindness, brotherly love, and share them with everyone around us. Let us also forgive one another. Let us use these healing gifts to heal our hearts, our families, our neighborhoods, and our social and civic circles, focusing on healing divisions of race, color, creed, gender, ages, abilities and disabilities, and any other difference we humans have contrived of to be different from one another.

Let us also continue to shine a light on science, medicine, and technology for the betterment of all of humanity.

Prejudice Is A Mental Disease ~ Not An Opinion


How many people have said, “This is just my opinion. I have a right to my opinion. That’s just the way I am.”? Everyone has a right to their own opinion. However, prejudice is not an opinion, nor is it “just they way I am.” Prejudice is a mental disease, a value of hate that is taught through families, friends, and society.

Prejudice is taught. Prejudice is an ignorant teaching. No one is born with a prejudiced mindset. It is also part of the poverty “rich vs poor” mentality, which includes the “us vs them.” It also infiltrates to the “we are better than them,” no matter which side of belief we are on.

The problem occurs when we atttempt to make prejudice be normal, or just another thought or value system someone has. Society never does well when we pretend any form of mental illness is normal.

How close to mental illness do you choose to get? Prejudice is a choice. No matter what our parents, friends or people in our circle of life believe, we always have the choice in what we believe as an individual.

I have had people tell me they have a right to be prejudiced, that the only crime is to act out in harmful or criminal ways. This is faulty reasoning. What you think about, you bring about.

If you encourage others with words full of prejudice then they commit a crime because they are emboldened by your words, you are culpable in their crimes. Charles Manson was.

A white person told me that they carry a gun and could shoot a black person with no problem. This is the form of mental disease that prejudice takes. It shows the beginning of thinking, speaking and acting out in hate, not simply “believing what I want to believe.”

I could be bipolar, which used to be called manic-depressive, and say, “I was born like this. It is in my DNA.” That would be an accurate statement. But since prejudice is not in our DNA, it is a mindset that shapes how we choose to lives our lives, to say “I was born like this” is not a true statement.

Prejudice is an ignorant, deformed mental concept. It serves no one, except the most ignorant and un-Christian among us. Jesus never taught nor practiced prejudice. This mental illness has been with humanity since people populated the earth. But prejudice has not been recognized for what it truly is, a mental disease.

Some of us fall into the weakness of prejudice by becoming victims of it, or by becoming bullies by it. Neither side is healthy. Both sides can heal, but only with the truth that all human beings work together, regardless of race, color, creed, gender, age and any other difference which makes us human. Our variety as human beings is what makes us unique and lovable, not deplorable.

If we only look at the crimes and outrage taking over cities in the United States these days, while not looking at what sparked this in the first place, we would be willfully ignorant of the facts ourselves. Facts are not opinions.

The spin of liars in the world is to call true facts “fake news.” That is the tip off, the red flag that someone is lying to you. Those who tell the truth never call the other side “fake news.” Only liars use those words.

Changes obviously need to be made. Staying relatively quiet since the days of Martin Luther King, Jr. has not stopped the sinister wave of hate prumulgated through the United States and the world under the subculture of white supremacy including prejudice in all its hideous forms.

We need to take off the blinders to the reality of how we treat all people in all situations, stop red-lining districts, stop political and willful conniving to scam the system, and stop pretending mental illness is normal, and stop putting prejudiced lawmakers and judges, all of whom are examples of the mental illness of prejudice in public office.

Prejudice has nothing to do with being educated, it has to with a deformed mental understanding of humanity. That is why prejudice is a mental illness. It is deformed.

The solution to the mental disease of prejudice is to call it what it is, mental illness. Mental illness is treatable. We as a country as well as the world can heal from every form of prejudice. Some people are prejudiced against the mentally handicapped, or people from other lands or beliefs, not just against people who are not exactly the same color of skin that we have. Still, all prejudice is a mental shortcoming, a defect that ought not to be treated as normal.

While systemic racisim has blinded many people, it is not a disease that is incurable. We need to deal with the core issue of racisim, which is prejudice, which erroneously thinks that one brand of people is better than another.

We are all the same in the eyes of God.

There is only one race of people, the human race.

It is time we mentally heal, and educate ourselves to all the goodness diversity has to offer.

It is time we mentally heal, and choose empathy and compassion over mental illness, including narcisism.

It is possible to heal with our very next thought. Reach out to help others. Use words of kindness.

It is possible to heal mental illness through counseling, support, and prayer.

It is just as easy to build each other up as to tear each other down.

If we start with a positive solution today, we can live in a better world tomorrow.

What Is Antifa? What Is Fascism?


This is what the United States really looks like, United Humanity, not only white Americans.

“ANTIFA” is a philosophy, not a group of people. It means “Anti Fascist.”

What does is mean to be a Fascist?

According to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, Fascism means:

  • a form of extreme-right authoritarianism
  • ultra nationalism
  • characterized by dictatorial power
  • forceable suppression of opposition
  • strong regimentation of society and the economy.

ANTIFA started in the early 1900s, around the time of World War I. People of every ethnicity, race, color, creed, gender, age, ability and/or disability are born with God-given free will. People do not wish to be dominated, nor treated unfairly or be suppressed by a political power, nor by elitist political and/or financial greed. WWI was supposed to put an end to worldwide domination by military force.

The ideals of Freedom and Democrary are so ingrained in American politics that the Founders of the United States of America wrote in the Preamble to the Constitution of the US:

“We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”

The ratification of the Convention held on Monday, September 17, 1787 promoted the rights and priviliges of those in government, including the rights of its citizens. Our government is based upon life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for all citizens, not just those at the top of political power, nor at the top of wealth earners.

The rights and priviliges are not for the of suppression of:

  • human rights including the immigration of persecuted asylum seekers
  • stealing and selling of babies and children also considered to be part of human trafficking
  • voting rights
  • women’s rights
  • global warming and climate change
  • rainforest destruction
  • fracking for profit at the expense of earthquakes and care of the earth
  • truth in lending practices including the wealthiest among us
  • truth in reporting and news coverage
  • truth in all areas

We have not seen Fascism in the United States of America until now.

Why is that?

The opposite of Fascism is ANTIFA. It means Anti-Fascism. To a nation based on freedom and liberty for all, ANTIFA is a GOOD thing as a peaceful stand, unless you happen to be a Fascist.

The opposite of Fascism is DEMOCRACY, and LIBERALISM. To BE AGAINST Antifa is to be a FASCIST.

Are you a Fascist?

Do you promote a Fascist agenda?

If you discover you are a Fascist, you need to find another country to be part of.

The Commonality of the Human Race


There is a commonality of the human race, a few things that no matter how we try to think, act or say

You hold the whole world in your hands.
differently, unify us. Yes we are all unique, special and one-of-a-kind. But we are more alike than the differences we profess.

The commonality we share is greater than the problems that divide us, and that what divides us, is of our own making.

All human beings born into the human race on planet Earth, all human beings who ever lived before us, and all human beings who will live after us, and you and I, all of us share deep and abiding common circumstances that will never change.

We all share a common origin.

We all share common problems.

We all share a common ultimate fate.

No matter which country you live in, no matter which language you speak, no matter which opinion you have, no matter which gender you are, no matter which ethnic race you are, no matter how old you are, there are common factors that unite us all. All human beings on planet Earth are more connected and share more important things in common than could possibly be experienced by the differences we acknowledge.

“Remember, the problems we share are greater than the problems that divide us and that what divides us, is of our own making,” said Sydney Sheldon in his fiction book, “Windmills Of The Gods.”

This is a true statement. We can complain about the earthquakes appearing in abundance all over the earth. It has been proven by scientists now that frakking, forcing outrageous volumes of water into the earth, is a major cause of earthquakes. This is just one example of irresponsible care of the earth for the sake of wealth. Our priorities are in the wrong place.

When we realign our priorities, placing people before things, we get back to the basics of natural order.

If you ever get confused about what to think, say, or do next, always go with this mantra, “People before things.”

I AM the mother of five grown children, 6 foster children (which I only had when their families were in need for a short time), and 12 grandchildren. Between regular child doctor appointments, parent-teacher conferences, dentists appointments, grocery shopping and meal preparation, family excursions to Wallum Lake for fun, and my work in the evenings as a newspaper reporter for the town of Mendon covering town government meetings and feature articles, there was precious little time for much else.

Many days, when it seemed everything had to be done at once, and something needed to be dropped, I learn to prioritize the to-do-list by this simple phrase that popped into my mind, “People before things.”

If I can help any other parent, teacher; social, academic, civic, political, or any other kind of professional needing to decide what is most important to deal with first, always go with “People before things,” and you will never go wrong.

We Are More Alike Than Our Differences ~ USA Presidential Election ~ Have No Fear


middle school students

We are more alike than the differences we profess. There is nothing to be afraid of. Stop shaking in your boots. There is no reason to fear people of different ethnic backgrounds, different genders, different ages, different religions, nor any difference in skin color. There is nothing we cannot handle with peaceful negotiation.

Truth matters.

Spanish/Mexican land greatly exceeds the land mass of the 13 colonies in 1763.

The United States of America is founded as a nation of immigrants. We welcome everyone, not just white people from Eastern Europe. As a matter of fact, people from assorted backgrounds were already here and settled within the current borders of the USA prior to the westward push to the opposite sea. The indigenous people of our great and wonderful land are still here. We love them. They are all part of the American Dream in this beautiful melting pot of humanity.

There is no reason to demonize people. We associate with groups of people who are different from our own. In these

Just 249 years ago, most of the central and southwestern USA was Spanish/Mexican.

days before the November 2020 Presidential Election, including the Presidential Conventions and TV shows, differences in the beliefs of the parties are being highlighted. There is a palpable undercurrent of fear that is present. Fear of others, how they think, and how they look, is not the way to make the best decisions, nor is lack of understanding the actual history on which this great nation is founded.

This present and palpable fear between political parties has infected the base of each within this country. It is important to separate fact from fiction in order to make common sense decisions based on love for all of humankind, not hype, hate or spin of the truth. This is not like rooting for your favorite sports team. We need to make decisions not based on the popular opinion of others, but based on our own research with input from more than one credible source.

I am writing to you as a former newspaper reporter and feature writer for three large newspapers. I needed to get real facts from three corroborated and credible sources, not friends who thought the same way I did. When I covered local Town Hall meetings, which are the heartbeat of the town, I could not misdirect the information to any particular target audience. The news I wrote had to apply to all townspeople. It was their tax dollars that funded the government of their town. I did not have any right to distort the truth of my own personal opinion. We all need to investigate further than what one side of any issue is before jumping on any bandwagon that may take you in the wrong direction, simply because you negelicted to navigate the precipice just around the corner.

How important is it to you that other countries with autocratic and oligarch leaders not interfer in the elections of the United States of America?

How important is it to you that factions of other countries not put bounties on the heads of our American soldiers?

How important is it to you to have your vote counted in the next Presidential Election?

It is easy to see the fear instigated by those with fear-based agendas.

What is the best way to make decisions not based on fear, but instead on intelligent investigation?

Is money the bottom line?

STEP OUT OF FEAR. STOP THE HATE. STOP SPREADING THE FEARMONGERING.

It is possible to stop the runaway train of fear by switching tracks to the path of love, empathy, compassion, justice and liberty for all, as we profess to believe in our Pledge of Allegiance.

Let’s see, who are really illegal immigrants in the USA?

Who are the people we count as illegal aliens?

Who counts as legal residents of the USA?

Should we determine who is legal by what they look like?

Is the USA still the country who welcomes the tired, poor, huddle masses yearning to breathe free, homeless, tempest tossed, as the Statue of Liberty lifts her golden flame of welcome?

How far back should we look, to the Native American Indians? Well, no, we should not go back that far because then we would all be illegal aliens. Looking back at the history of the United States of America it is easy to see why the USA border with Mexico is such a hot spot. However, Mexicans were here long before we were, and many of them and their families never left. They still live on their original homestead. Some Americans think these people are immigrants when in fact, they were here for generations before we got here.

Spanish/Mexican land greatly exceeds the land mass of the 13 colonies in 1763.

Shall we count the Spanish/Mexican people who lived here in 1763, prior to all our wars with them?

Shall we include those people in the land before we arrived in all the conquests and purchases?

When you think of it this way, who are really the aliens?

There has got to be a better way for people of conscience, to resolve our current humanity and immigration dilemmas, that do not include a gun to someone’s back or face, and deportation of this nations’ children who are in this land of “freedom” trying to make a better life for themselves and their families, like we all are.

We can be so short-sighted. For Americans living here now legally, it was not that long ago, not even 200 years

Maps of the USA from 1776-1866, just 146 years ago.

ago, when our very own grandparents and their grandparents were immigrants to this country. Most of them simply walked through Ellis Island, signed their name, or an “X” if they could not write, to get in. We do need smart immigration reform that does not include inhumane treatment. The scarcity mentality based on fear, fear of others, fear of their beliefs, fear of how they look, fear of how they think, fear, fear, fear is the pinacle problem of our time. We are smarter than this.

We need to stand on principle, not fear of others. We need to be fair, not self-righteous. We need to empathetic and compassionate to the plight of humanity caught in the midst of inhuman actions in these extraordinary times. We need a clear mind not infected with the plague of inhuman actions to solve the problems facing us today.

This fear and demonization of others has infiltrated the small minds, greedy hearts and loud voices of a few of those among us. We need to broaden our horizons and find creative solutions that do not include the destruction of the soul and spirit of human integrity, that place all non-white Americans, as well as non-American people, in the same category as crimminals and drug lords. We need to address crime issues, but often it is the illegal immigrant who is the victim of the crime, not the perpetrator.

Indigo Children Living Techincolor Lives


The human family is hurting itself by all the labels we place upon each other. Labeling and putting humans not like us in boxes is the system we know. It is the system we judge by, consciously or unconsciously. What do we do with the non-conformists, like Indigo Children living technicolor lives?

Society is changing, or is it?

The labeling system that has served humanity for generations is becoming obsolete. If we do not keep up, we will be out of step with the future. This is not about judging, or being right or wrong. This is not about supressing the voice of the other, which we do not want to hear.

Why don’t these very unique beings see what we see, and do things the conventional way?

Indigo Children, for lack of a better term of judging this supposedly relatively new breed of people, operate under a new code, an accelorated understanding of personhood. Actually they have been with us since the dawn of Creation, or the Big Bang as some say. However our understanding can grasp the beginning of people, that is how long Indigo Children can trace their beginning to.

At the beginning of time and thought-substance into matter, beings were first androgynous, both male and female. We often forget this part of human pre-history. It is merely a placement of geography whether we are black or white, or any other difference our physical bodies manifest. Some prideful egos revolt at this reality.

Why is this obviously different human presence making its appearance in our families at this time?

While it may seem that Indigo Children have recently dropped from the sky, so to speak, they have been with us for eons. We simply have not paid them attention, nor given them the accolades they deserved at the time. They have been our artists, our scultpures, our mathematicians, our architects and the like. It is only in hindsight that we give them the just praises, awards and prestige they deseve.

We have not been paying enough attention to the important aspects of what being fully human means to humanity as a whole. Humanity is not represented by only being:

white
straight
male
having blue eyes
blonde hair
English (or any other conquering, dominating people)
rich
powerful
tall
ego-driven

Is it a matter of parenting? No. We need to wake up to reality.

How do we determine (judge) who are the:

worthy ones?
less than human ones?
the best generation of people born at a certain time?
generation not to be trusted?
safe ones we can be around?
ones we have to watch out for?
ones we can trust?
ones who are like us?
ones who think like us?

Some of us are a different color, creed, ethnicity, belief system, language, age, ability and, god forbid, a non-descript gender. It is as if all these differences made up some quality or lack of quality of the height of humanity in and of itself.

Have you ever thought that perhaps these “menacing butterflies” of human beings who do not conform to specific gender roles, for example, are actually living loving lives in their journey of self discovery void of labels, as we all should? Imagine living your life freely, without looking through the lenses of the opinion and labels of others to determine what you should or should not do.

How do you feel when lables are placed on you?
How do you feel when people say you are too:

trouble making?
like a church mouse?
loud?
soft?
different?
lazy?
busy?
shy?
talkative?
quiet?
judgmental?
much like a doormat?
hard to get along with?
easy to get along with?

The less-evolved, lower forms of humanity sometimes turn to hate crimes, as if by elimiating the proposed menace, the “problem” will go away. Nothing could be further from the truth. Whether it is a war for any reason, in any country, it is never possible to kill enough of the “enemy” to eliminate the DNA within all of humankind. You and I carry this human DNA within the physical structure of our human bodies. This is normal. It is the hateful way we treat each other at times that is not normal.

The higher evolutions of human kind have nothing to do with gender, ethnicity, skin color, age, creed, ability nor disability. Every human being has something to offer to the rest of us.

Arrogance coupled with blind and/or willful ignorance is one of the lowest levels humanity often sinks to in the labeling game of determining who is important and who is not. The solution to ignorance is education, admitting we do not know everything there is to know about life, or certain situations. Simply thinking we know everything about everyone and every thing ought to be the red flag that we really do not know everything there is to know about everyone who is different from us, or thinks differently from us.

Keep in mind that Jesus said the kingdom of God is within us, in Luke 17:21. The Hebrew, Greek, English Interlinear Bible translates the original writing to “within you,” not “among you” as some bibles changed the translation to. Most modern bibles are now correcting this misinformation back to the original words of Jesus.

Indigo Children have the kingdom of God within them also. They always have. Jesus made no exclusions. Humankind did, but Jesus did not. This means the kingdom of God is also within everyone who identifies as an Indogi Child, or who is in the LGBTQ communities, Autistic communities, and every other difference people have manufactured as being “different” from other, less-evolved humans.

Namaste
The God in Me recognizes the God in You.
Have a beautiful day!

There Is Only One Race On This Beautiful Planet ~ The Human Race


The human race on Earth is the only race there is.

Whether we are discussing the differences in race, color, ethnicity, creed, financial status, gender, or age, we must realize that on this planet, there is only one race, the human race.

Sometimes we try to hide our prejudices behind other reasons, to justify the positions we take politically, socially, environmentally, religiously, or any other way we human beings use to suppress the voice of others.

We are more alike than any difference we profess.

The root cause of prejudice is fear, not hatred. While certain groups may be extremely angry about an issue, the underlying cause of anger is fear. Why are we so afraid of other people, their color, their belief system, their culture, their gender? Think of how we respond to someone expressing a different viewpoint, or addressing uncomfortable issues such as immigration, homelessness and hungry children in our country and the world.

Fear promotes radical groups in any of the human categories mentioned. If we are truly serious about fixing our world, before we can build any bridges to repair the damage we have caused, we must eradicate the root cause of fear.

War, murder and killing are not communication skills.

While war, murder and killing are not communication skills, when communication stops, pretending in the myth of fantasy that things are perfectly fine now, when they are not, we create the reaction no one wants. We cannot blame the fault on the reactions taking place in our cities and nation when we are at fault for not listening and communicating in the first place. Being willfully ignorant is a fascade that does not stand up against the truth in any matter. It is just a matter of time before lives of fantasy denying reality inevitably crumble.

Just when it seems we have made great progress in this country and in the world, submerged voices rise from the depths of class and color suppression. The deeper the supression, the equal and opposite reaction occurs. No human being, regardless of color, wants to be suppressed. White people do not want to be suppressed. Neither do black or any other division of humanity want to be suppressed.

We are all the same in the eyes of God. We are all, each and every one of us, whether we are aware if it or not, are all created with that spark of God within us, our god flame if you will. Each of us is an aspect of God.

We should celebrate the strides we have made. But there is more to do, more to share, more to learn, more to understand, more to forgive, more to let go. It is not about being right, or wrong, or making others right or wrong. There is no way to make up for the loss of life through war, violence, bloodshed, or retaliation. Two wrongs do not make a right. We need to build bridges to and for all people everywhere.

We all have free will. You and I are free beings. How do you and I choose to be the solution based on love without conditions?

Despite all our unique differences, we all share this one beautiful planet. We are all born in the same way, we all breathe air while we are here, and we all die. We are all having a shared human experience. Our life is in our blood, without which we would cease to be. No one soul is better than any other soul on this planet, no matter what our pride (insane ego) might be telling us.

There is only one race on this planet.

It’s the human race.

Let us begin again to fix what is broken. We are better than denying the oppression and racism that is running rampant in our country and in the world. It is possible to fix this problem, but first we must address the issues before us, and not submerge them again, or beat down the voices we do not want to hear.

It is time as a country to mature, to grow up, face the systemic racism, to create real law and order with rules that everyone follows. We cannot not have one set of rules for white people, and another set of rules for black people. The same thing goes for English Americans, Spanish Americans, Irish Americans, French Americans, Mexican Americans, or any other DNA which makes us the greatest melting pot in the world. Nor should we have a different set of laws for the wealthy and the politically and lawfully powerful. The United States needs ONE Constitution and ONE Bill of Rights that EVERYONE can follow, not just a chosen few.

There Is Only One Race On This Planet ~ The Human Race


 

The human race on Earth is the only race of people there is.

The root cause of prejudice is fear, not hatred. While certain groups may be extremely angry about an issue, the underlying cause of anger is fear. Fear is often coupled with greed. This is really the poverty mentality, which says, I need more than you; if I have it you cannot have it; or, there is not enough to go around. This is also the power mentality, if I have more than you; you have to do what I say; and/or follow my laws, even though I do not have to follow my laws.

What is the paradigm you wish to follow? Are you a follower or a leader? Do you stand up for yourself? Do you stand up for yourself in the midst of fearful, greedy and/or powerful people? Do you stand up for truth?

Think of how you respond to someone expressing a different viewpoint, or addressing uncomfortable issues such as immigration, homelessness and hungry children in our country and the world.

If we are truly serious about fixing our world, before we can build any bridges to repair the damage we have caused, we must eradicate the root cause of fear. War, murder and killing are not communication skills.

There is only one race of people on this planet.

It’s the human race.
