You
are either or in the shade where answers are hard to see. Most of the world is
in the twilight zone having little clue beyond what they think they have about
who they really are, and what’s going on to put them into the illusion box of
beliefs, doubts, and fantasy’s. The world has become a fantasy for
entrepreneurs who know they can make money from it. Theme parks, lottery’s,
casino’s, sports arenas, Hollywood and it’s illusion machine, politicians,
broken or crippled marriages, and religious salesmen all are in it for the
money. Of course, it’s more than that as there is some enjoyment to it. ‘Skating
on thin ice’ is the way of the day. Hoping, dreaming without looking, and
getting the true insights into life and love. It’s a technological dream world,
where inventions are falling from the sky.
What happened
to that major human era of the ’60’s and ’70’s where people were free?
Unfortunately, it is LONG gone and has been replaced by the ‘dream for the
‘shadow dwellers’ who continues to be gullible to infinite sales pitches while
putting off of finding the reality of how they are apart from all the ‘dream
catchers’ catch for attachment. This world now seems like NO place for
those with heart N’ soul and challenges keep increasing, and gobbling up the
energy needed to focus on building the inner life of love. None of us are, in truth,
just the movie goer, sports fan, gambler, addict of this and that, and yet
that’s who most have come to see themselves as, or at least how the outside
observer sees you. Slipping and sliding in the ‘twilight zone’ of illusion
leads to slipping into the dark side of love, and life away from into the light
of positive, conscious living. Counting on a God, while not being a full time
assistant, is walking into the dark. Every step toward the light not only
enhances you but all of life. You owe it to life to light your life up.
Please dont glamorize the 60's and 70's.
ReplyDeleteI was 13 when President Kennedy was assasinated in 1963, which heralded the beginning of the end of the American Dream. Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy assasinated in 1968. The Vietnam War was raging all through the 60s and 70s. Senseless war we lost along with 50,000 young men. Race riots, rampant crime in the streets, interest rates climbing to 17%, the Oil embargo... the beginning of the AIDS pandemic.
This is what it was like to live in the 60s and 70s. One shock after another after another. It wasnt all 'come together', wasnt all sex drugs and rock & roll.. it was a fking SCARY time to be young and I dont miss those days at all.
So the world been scary from the beginning of time huh?
ReplyDeleteYes, the world has been scary from the beginning of time. Yet if one thinks it out clearly and steps outside one's ego, has dreams that do not depend on money, is fortunate enough to have good health, this is arguably the best of times to be alive. One can choose to live outside the craziness of current trends and connect instead to the big picture that puts it all in perspective, while still allowing each of us to contribute positively. However small each individual contribution may seem, like a grain of sand, it nonetheless all adds up.
ReplyDeleteKeen insight here my brother.
