This is why I want to live in a compound or a "Village" (Like Clinton ripped off someone I'm sure) because I suspect and hope that people get called on their shit there. Right? Because being called on your shit is the only way to grow. Being told (in a meaningful, lovingly and sometimes even specifically thought out for me way) that I was caught, that life doesn't work out great that way. Being told with adoration, one can learn anything. I literally mean ANYTHING. Including what I find the most important lesson of all; that a life of living honestly and truthfully is a life of truly great joy.
My point is.... If we lived in a world of truth, a world where people were loved for who they were on the inside, no matter what they looked like on the outside (good or bad). Then we wouldn't have so many issues, as a world, a country, a city, a society, a family, a couple, a person. No issues at all. If we could drop the shields, let our vulnerabilities come out to play and see what shows. See the ghouls and the goblins, the Angels and the saints, see the world in all its beautiful gory glory.
Do you think animals have "safety"? Any animal walking this earth; It has a predator, and it sometimes is a predator. We need to walk away from this glitz, these comforts, these cities in captivity. We need to live closer to and as part of the land. AS PART OF IT; we are not separate. The earth has demonstrated many times that you are here "to serve; at the pleasure of the planet" and once that pleasure is gone, so are we. How many species go extinct every single day?? How and why are we any more special?
The ancients had it right in that they appeased the earth (although I don't condone human sacrifice). They did what they thought the Gods (think Mother Earth) wanted. Do we do that? Why would our lovely host not want us abolished, like a flea on a dog. We are a plight on this great earth. A disgusting "industrialized" force of nature (we feel), but at the pleasure of whom? (We forget.). Here's where the listening comes back in finally.
When we connect our hearts to each other we become aware of what life really is. And you can quote the bible, almost any great ;song, music, dance, art, and so on... "It's all about Love" and to a small extent "our dance with the devil". Isn't that what we came to this earth for? Each and every one of us. To live the great odyssey. To see the grand spectacle. To dance with the Devine. To sip from the wells of time within the depths of infinity.
I believe we did come here, on purpose, each and every one of us. We didn't know what is was going to be. We wanted to see the possibilities. We wanted to experience the dance. To live the knowing outside of being it. To see the bliss of love yet see that here is also this more to it. I'm not sure I knew that there was an opposite of love, because I had no frame of reference for that. I just knew that I could experience where I was (which I absolutely loved with my entire being) from a different place and see it for all it really was. When you're busy living love you really don't have any time left to see what love is. You can't be an actor and spectator at the same time. (Another blog will explain this situation itself better).
So life lets you spectate and live it all; both sides. Much more than you ever anticipated or knew about when you were born. Because we are all born good. All God's creatures are born good. No creature, no matter how grotesque and Ill serving it may appear to us humans is without some merit. Except maybe the nematodes. I really haven't figured out their role in the game. Here I am getting all judgy. Ugghhhh. Lol. Just when I was trying so hard to convey that we should not ever be. I see how hard it is.
