Politics: Tribal Mentality?

There are times I see a shared Facebook post and immediately go to the comments from the orginal posting. It can be very "educational." As I read them, I often decide to turn up my empathic abilities in order to sense any truth in what they wrote. In other words, do they know what they're talking about or not?

Yesterday, I read something that had me shaking my head and wondering the path many are taking in their lack of thinking or reasoning. Thankfully, I read more intelligent comments trying to straighten them out, but I often think: isn't that the pot calling the kettle black?

For instance, this man went into a big explanation of tribal mentality and how damaging it can be because it separates us. Yet, we have tribes to protect us against our enemies. (Okay, so far so good.) Yet, he ended it with a hateful comment about Trump's followers and their tribal mentality. That's when I thought - huh?!  Wouldn't that apply to any politician or person and their tribe? 

For instance, if Trump's tribe isn't causing a ruckus at his opponent's "tribal meetings" but other's are doing so at Trump's "tribal meetings," what does that say for the opposing tribe's mentality? My feelings are hurt, so I'm going to cause a disruption by throwing a temper fit in someone else's home? Really? And this, apparently, sounds logical?

Furthermore, I watch the news media's discussions panels. I read social media comments. I see with my eyes and do all I can to feel with an unbiased heart because my emotions aren't linked with any particular person. I only want the truth based on facts and not someone's chip on their shoulder. Something I was taught by guidance - to see beyond the dust storm. In doing so, I'm often reminded of what my ex used to say: some people are ate up with the dumb ass.

Lastly, I decided to blog my feelings because it wouldn't be logical, on my part, to respond to his comment. I've learned not to knock on someone's door when I know they're not home.

Migration: Genocide or Extinction?

As a friend said: everybody's an immigrant.

I agree. At least, someone in our ancestry was. Even if we're born native to our country, someone came before us and the path they took wasn't always pleasant or peaceful upon arrival.

 

Throughout history, we've had migrating people that have invaded others who migrated before (ad infinitum) and they've always had their share of fighting and wars. Always!

To say otherwise would show a severe amount of historical ignorance. Not one time have we had any major migration anywhere that hasn't caused an upheaval.

In the past, they've used sticks and stones to fight their battles. It advanced to axes and arrows. Then to guns and canons. On and on, we continue to fight and war for land or new land.

Eventually, we have advanced to using bombs. We've seen where people have used vehicle bombs or setting bombs anywhere to make a point for their cause. Today the mentality is to use people bombs to blow themselves up, and others, to oblivion.

Experts have stated that migrations have caused a genocide in many cultures. I was thinking about that today, especially when I see the amount of hate that so many people still have for those that don't fit in with their idealogy. Are we eliminating a race? Are we eliminating another culture?

Or, maybe it's more than what we feel it is. Maybe we're using it as a reason to eliminate us. An unconscious flow to depopulate mankind. Are prayers being answered in an extreme way? Are we setting ourselves up for the most severe situation to depopulate mankind? Nuclear? Laser? Meteor?

Yet, I feel that even with humanity understanding population control, we will not be civil. Sadly, it appears as if it's too ingrained in our DNA to be otherwise. Science has proven that the planet rid itself of dinosaurs once. Are we next?

Something to consider. 

Conscious Transmissions: Angel or Devil?

Remember the cartoons of the little devil and angel on our shoulders affecting our conscious? They are examples of "conscious transmissions" that we may receive when we are doing mental battles. Do we? Don't we? Should we? Shouldn't we? Yet, prophets, like Jesus, let us know that the battle was very real and with real beings, even though we may not see them.

The angel/devil cartoon is a way of showing us something that may be going on and more true then one realizes. They offer a visual of why people keep doing what the say they don't want to do, yet keep feeling they must. It could be because we are more then our brain, like Dr. Deepak Chopra and others have been stating for years, including me. 

The brain has to function well for it to work correctly - as God/Universe has designed it. Of course, we know there are extenuating circumstances. However, for the sake of argument, we will state that we're dealing with a fully functional being from this point forward and not someone in a coma. Okay?

To continue, we have learned that our brains are complex, yet we are still learning more everyday. It is similar to a radio/TV that can receive and even transmit negative or positive thoughts (signals). These thoughts are considered good or bad based on our current culture and programming.

Transmissions can come from the outside and not just you looking at an object and wanting to pick it up - hoping that brain/mind/body all function to make it happen. There could, possibly, be a transmission that you receive which yells, "stop!" - keeping you from picking it up (or any other scenario). Did it come from you, a source that is helping, or a source that does not have your best interest at heart? Did the thought come from someone seen or unseen? 

Maybe it's not a thought heard but a feeling felt. We always believe if no one is seen then it can only be from us. Science is beginning to prove otherwise. Transmissions can come from anywhere and from anyone. 

Even habits can be formed (good or bad) due to repeatedly receiving transmissions (like parents saying, "clean your room!"). You may fight them off, at first, but what if they come at you relentlessly, yet no one is around? Get help if this happens, especially if you feel they are "wrong." There are those that may want you to fulfill their desires because they also have to eat, buy clothes and provide shelter. For instance, are you buying something because you really need it or ....

Also, any mind altering substance is a way to limit your consciousness, which may inhibit your ability to fight off those transmissions. Being strong also involves being in control. Being drunk or high can take your control away. Unwelcomed transmissions may create an incident that can make you look back with serious regrets - if you live through it. It happens all the time - don't ever delude yourself in thinking you are above all that. That form of thinking could set you up to a "karmic" transmission of: "you wanna bet!"

Lastly, feeling overwhelmed by mental transmissions may take getting help from others. If not, you may succumb to the transmissions of those that want to "suck the life out of you" for their personal needs. We do not live in this world alone. Many people are out for personal gain. Remember that the next time you impulse buy an expensive, electronic appliance (or anything) and later asked yourself how you are going to pay your other bills because of it. I think you get the picture: did the devil make you do it, was it angelic guidance, or did you make that decision? Either way, and something to carefully consider, only you will be held accountable for your actions - not that devil or angel.

Lambaste the Lawbreakers Not the Lawmakers

I'm perplexed about why people do this. I'm going out on a limb here but I feel that people who get angry over certain laws that are made, restricting them in any particular way, should not be lambasting the lawmakers but the lawbreakers. The culprits who caused the creation of these laws, often to our dismay. Are they angry because they're also the lawbreakers?

This is what I shared with a friend recently: "We make laws because of the bad people not the good. The good people always suffer due to the bad. If anyone gets angry over laws, that they feel are unjust, they need to take the bad ones into consideration. It's not those that obey the laws but the ones that don't that make us all suffer. In every area of any subject. Be angry at them, not the ones making laws to protect the innocent. They (bad) took our (good) rights away."

It's our choice to be upset, but be upset with the ones who took advantage of a situation, often creating the path that inadvertently punishes the good along with the bad. We can get in an uproar but we shouldn't denigrate the lawmakers who saw a need that we might not have considered or don't want to consider. Despise, if we will, the correct ones: the bad people. The ones who started the ball rolling in taking away what we feel is our rights.

Yes, be angry at the lawmakers, but only when they're being lawbreakers too.

Paranoia

To me, it seems that it's gotten worse, lately, with the paranoia I sense coming off most "truthers" and "conspiracy theorists." They're beyond believable (not that I have). Some have slipped so far down the rabbit hole, they seem beyond hope.

Even though they profess they know the truth, they do not have anything tangible to offer. They haven't proven a thing. Nothing they say adds up, at least with those that have logical minds. Maybe that's my answer. I often wonder what drug they're using to make them believe their fantasies or phobias. I've heard and read many stories over the years and seen the counter (scientific) reasoning, yet they won't be convinced otherwise that some bad guy isn't after them or they're being lied to by the world.

A little while ago, I heard these words, off the universe, regarding the mental state of some of these people  - paranoid schizophrenia. This is where someone has delusions that a person or people are lying to, or plotting against, them or others.

When I asked guidance why this was going on, especially with those within the metaphysical community, they said, "it's the way to discredit what you call psychics or spirituality. It's nothing new, just new people coming on board and being used. Their gullibilty is being tested. In other words, they are drinking the koolaid thinking they're not."

I asked if this was some kind of karmic lesson. They said, "Only if they allow it. There have been many good metaphysical teachers showing the way of truth. They're either being denied it or not choosing to partake. Either way, they'll learn sooner or later."

I got a strong feeling that they're still paying their dues on their path. This validated their answer to my question, that I had asked some time ago, about why were some people being pulled away from me and why was I being asked to move away from some. Guidance told me, "You're not here to save the world. As you know, people save themselves; they have to allow it. But that doesn't mean you have to put up with them while they decide. Besides, these people, whether being paranoid, schizophrenic, or both, contributes to the needs of those in psychology. A karmic path they decided to choose."

Chosing paranoia? Interesting.

Psychic Credibility

Many times, I've explained on my Atomarane videos, why psychics can be mentally blocked, in getting messages, and lose credibility. Here's a little something that may help. Try doing a test with your psychic friends. It's best if they are on the same level of awareness. To keep it simple, give them a question that requires only a written yes or no answer. You can also have a general feeling on the subject and tally the results. No peer pressure and only for helping one another. Most importantly, people should be enjoying what their doing. Belonging to a support group also helps and can be utilized to gain results.

This is what scientist do. They use an algorithim: a process or set of rules to be followed in calculations or other problem-solving. With this method, people can offer credible proof of psychic ability. However, please remember that everyone may be on different levels of awareness or taught differently, which is why I mentioned above that it should be done with those on the same level of awareness.

This is what I have done with my students to see how they were progressing. I gave them classwork or homework to channel information off the universe with the help of their guides. In fact, in my Eternity Proven book starting on page 80, in Part Four, I have one chapter called: Channeling Works - Student Homework Assignment. I had requested that they write their answers, and bring them to the next class (one did it during). Needless to say, I was extremely impressed with the similarities of their written messages. That's when I knew this ability wasn't just a gift ... it could be taught ... it could be proven. 

Eternity Proven: 
http://www.lulu.com/shop/charlene-lerch/eternity-proven/paperback/product-13000593.html

As an example, I'll share the request that was presented to them, which is in my book. It was a message from the universe in July 1989. They said, "Have your students channel a message about your husband [now ex] from us." With no prompting from me, and only told what I had heard, here is just one of the written responses (in order to keep this blog short). The rest were similar. If you chose, you can read more in the book, along with names and dates.

Student: "We know that you do not understand but in some time yet to come you will. It is strange to you and you feel that Charlene has lost her mind but she has not. She is not as in tuned to the universe as we are but she may soon at some future time. Do not make fun of her. She is doing something that may help others at this time. Try to understand that this is something she wishes to do. We know that in time to come she will be in more control of herself and those around her so that she may better understand. We only ask that you take a small amount of time to listen to her. If you do not wish to understand, now, we will let her know."

Lastly, maybe it's time to move on from the days of solo psychics/seers/mystics and become a group collaboration and support. I feel this way, because of many years of observing human nature and all its flaws. Group collaboration can help hone our abilities, helps removes mental blocks, helps promote team work, helps maintain accuracy and honesty, helps keep our egos in check, along with, hopefully, allowing more psychic credibility.

Riots

Riot: a violent disturbance of the peace by a crowd.

You can push some of the people some of the time but you can't push all the people all the time. When will people learn that you can't keep pushing people around without repercussions? Is there some sort of switch that gets turned off in our human brain that's says: not me, can't happen to me; I'll push someone but they won't push back?

In an age of more worldly awareness, more enlightenment at our fingertips, some still choose to resort to disrespectful, Neanderthal mentality. Yes, there are some who have lost their minds while others shake their heads and wonder if there's any hope for this planet.

This collage of Internet pictures represent riots outside of America. Yes, this insanity is worldwide. Do they really think they're fighting for peace? How's that working?

New Agers: Actions Speak Louder Than Words

I woke up this morning receiving this feeling that the word karma is still being misused or misunderstood. I know there are a lot of new "new-agers" (for lack of a better word) coming on board everyday, so I want to share something that I've learned in nearly thirty years of being Awake (knowing about other dimensions), Aware (knowing other dimensions can communicate) and Enlightened  (knowing how to protect myself from other dimensions), which is: actions speak louder than words.

For example, if someone's out in the rain, looking like they need an umbrella, and you're nearby, bring them an umbrella or whatever item that can cover them (or you both), especially if you feel a strong urge to do so. I can honestly say, it works faster than praying for someone else to do it (to keep you from getting wet) or expecting another dimension will provide protection (stop raining). It is especially useful information when one is in doubt. Kindness should be a priority - in any dimension.

Yes, there are exceptions to every rule, including this one. However, as you become more advanced in your training, you'll understand those too. For instance, am I the one to save another or not? It may seem harsh, but not when you know the full picture. When you're more awake, aware and enlightened, you'll have your answer in a flash of insight. In the meantime, offer an umbrella, etc., if at all possible, because, in all honesty, it's everyone's karma and the universe has eyes and ears everywhere.

Truth That Wasn't: My Dad's Birthday

I shared this story with some friends on social media some years ago and decided to blog about it too. This is a little story of truth not being truth: March 16th and my dad's false birthday.

My dad's birthday was always celebrated, with our family, on March 16th. We never questioned that day because that's what he was told by his parents. No reason to dispute that. Right? A long time ago, we didn't have the burden of proof as we do today. My dad started school based on his birthday being March 16th, his father even attested to this when he signed him into the Navy. They didn't need birth certificates back then, as they do today, and this was the birthday that he and his family always celebrated since he was a child.

Years later, dad filed for Social Security. It was time to prove his birth date and dad had to produce a birth certificate for the very first time. Lo and behold, it came back as April 16th (same birth year). Could this have been a mistake? A month apart could not be right - could it? We continued to use March 16th but the family joked about the two birthdays. Then, when the 1930 census was released (I do our family genealogy), there was the proof that he was really born in April and not March. We started celebrating his birthday on April 16th then.

The mystery, of the wrong date, was solved when he and I were discussing his starting school as a child. He believed that his parents used March in order to start him in school earlier. Something to do with quarters back then as opposed to what we have today. Since he was the baby of the family, I'm sure they were anxious to get the last one out of the house. And so began the birthday that really wasn't but carried on for over sixty years. Couldn't do that today.

This taught me that the truth is based on what we perceive in the moment. When a new thought appears, it can be used to changed out our original truth or not. In this particular instance, we changed ours by deciding to use the birth date based on the birth certificate, based on recorded fact, as opposed to what we came to realize was someone's fabrication. 

This situation helped me understand that what we see as truth may not always be so, as we may have bought into another's truth that may be fabricated or fantasized. Furthermore, this taught me that truth is based on actuality. We need to research and collect our evidence. I often see people share or say things without verifying it, possibly because they want to believe it's true. Also, this showed me that we may have to wait for the truth to be revealed. Probably why we are asked not to be hasty in our judgment.

Politics: Why Can't People Get It?

We need to get our priorities in order and stop the hate in our country. You vote for someone because of their values and that you feel they can carry off at least half of their campaign promises. You vote for someone not because of their race or gender, not because of your personal needs, but especially not because you hate their opponent. You vote for someone because of their qualifications. What they can do for our country. Maybe people would be dissapointed less, if they understood this. As my dad used to say, we can want in one hand and spit in another, but which one will get filled first.

Let them lay their cards on the table and then vote accordingly. People fight with you because they're not happy with your choice. Why does anyone need to know your choice? I don't care about your choice. Vote your conscience and I'll do the same. Pissing people off will generally and stubbornly make them dig in their heels. If you won't change your opinion, why do you think they will or should?

If reason or logic doesn't work, why should anyone be brutally forced to change their mind? We need to understand that we're only being "expendable puppets" to the Neanderthal-minded, instigating, troublemakers who could care less if we get injured or murdered.

Thank You Eve!

In the beginning ...

I often think that some things are symbolic meanings, as opposed to actuality. Like the apple in the Garden of Eden. I think it's a symbolic fruit, not a real one. The meaning behind this "apple" symbology was in people being more aware. After all, it was from the tree of knowledge. Eve had her eyes opened, with this knowledge, and only wanted to share what she knew. Who else could she tell but Adam? Sharing is caring. Right?

Also, I feel the snake is only a symbology of Adam's first wife, Lilith, who was banished for not loving Adam as God wanted her too. She did not want to be subservient to him. So God made Eve instead and all was well. That is, until Lilith showed back up and told Eve about this great truth she wasn't being allowed to know (knowledge/apple). Maybe Lilith didn't think women should be denied education. That snake!

There is also this reality, that we still see today, that some people want us to be dummies. They may even get angry when we find out more then they want us to know. This could be represented in God's anger for disobeying and by throwing us out of his home. 

But, did that stop us? Nope! We women have been a handful ever since, because we chose to be aware instead of ignorant. We are the symbol for enlightenment. So ... we have to "carry" the new generations for disobeying? No problem. Here, have an apple. It keeps the doctor away. 

And so it continues ...

Blocking Negative Thoughts and Emotions

I did a blog earlier about questioning everything, including our thoughts. 

Question Everything - http://atomaraneadvice.blogspot.com/2016/03/question-everything.html?m=1

This made me think of something more I can add to that. People have often told me that my videos have been very helpful, especially in being more aware that not all one thinks or feels, mostly negativity, is from themselves. We need to be aware of this so we can question that too. 

Something that may help question or block any negative thoughts or emotions is what I've taught my students, which is: anything negative isn't me. Even if you feel it is, tell yourself it isn't. Meaning those particular thoughts or emotions that are design to be mean or hateful to you or another. It's easy to "cancel them out" by mentally denying it. For instance, similar to when a child says something negative to another child and that child replies - So! Similar to saying - talk to the hand! Especially, if you're sensing it's meant to undermine you or another. That's a big clue. 

Yes, blocking negativity can be that simple. Of course, it might be difficult, in the beginning, but persistence pays. Think about it this way, how would you feel if those feelings that you should commit a crime or commit suicide, etc., were coming from another that's unseen? Would you still go along with it? Would you be angry? Would you say "so" or "talk to the hand"? Would you be sad and agree? Either way, whatever your decision, whether it comes from you or another, you still allow it. Wouldn't it be better to allow something positive for you? 

In addition, if a thought is received that you're too thin or too fat, for instance, it's up to you to decide if it true or how you react to it. It's up to you to use it in a negative or positive manner. After you become more aware of these thoughts, the emotions behind them will guide you. This will let you know if they're helping you or not.

Lastly, here's a video I made about blocking thoughts. It was a challenge I put out about understanding where thoughts can come from and why. And why some thoughts, understandably, may not have your best interest at heart. 

Blocking Thoughts & Emotions - A Challenge - https://youtu.be/m8JssU8aA9o

Question Everything

When I was a teen, my dad taught me an important lesson that I still use over 50 years later. He said that I should question everything and don't believe everything I read or hear and only half of what I see. Another thing he would discourage is hearsay. He would ask me if I heard it from that person's mouth or another's.

It's a great philosophy, especially in today's times with all the deceitful memes and websites. We should research to the best of our abilities and never assume. I'm seeing people jump on the proverbial bandwagon because it's catering to their wants, regardless of it being factual. I've caught myself doing the same and have to really push at myself not to get caught up in that flow.

Lastly, it took my "awakening" to teach me another valuable lesson: Don't believe everything you think. Yes, we have a right to question our thoughts and feelings too. Why do I feel this way about this person? Why am I belittling or berating myself? Is any of this logical?

Remember, we have been shown, thoughout history, that even people in authority can be wrong at times. Question everything.

America: Don't Put All Your Eggs in One Basket!

With operations in more than 40 countries, Disney has approximately 166,000 employees and cast members around the world. It would be a extreme, economical hardship on the employees and families if they closed their business. The domino effect would also be felt by all their vendors, leading to an economical impact on those employees and families too. In time, they would eventually, and hopefully, recover by utilizing other sources.

With an approximate U.S. population of 323,390,785, and counting, it would not be an extreme economical impact if our country failed. It would be a huge, horrendous disaster. Not just by the people who live here, but the domino effect that other countries would suffer because of world trade.Today's world trade would make the impact stronger than felt in earlier history. This is what can happen when you have a government in complete control - where they slowly and insidiously take over - and then fail.

This is why we have the proverb: don't put all your eggs in one basket. This is why people who invest in the stock market are advised to diversify. This is why big corporations do business in other countries. It's something to consider when anyone thinks that having their country run or control everything, their hand in every area, is a smart idea. It's not.

It's one thing when large corporations fail. It's another when large countries fail.

Belligerent: A Means to Another's End

Belligerent (adj.) 1.Inclined or eager to fight; hostile or aggressive. 2.Of, pertaining to, or engaged in warfare.

I, jokingly, told a friend once that God must have made a plan, many years ago, to make most of our teens belligerent in order to keep them from living at home forever. That's so we, as parents, would want them to leave our home, so they can start their own, and help them become adults. However, lately it seems more kids are staying at home longer (or coming back home), possibly due to economic reasons.

So, I decided to ask God, one day, if He could please consider lightening up, somewhat, on the "hormones" that creates this "teen" attitude; give parents a break - even if we were hellions as children ourselves. Maybe He could teach us how to forgive our past transgressions, and transgressors, so we can improve and move on.

I hope He listens. Maybe He has, as I have seen "some" teens being very nice to their parents and their parents being really nice to them. Sadly, it also looks like we still have a long way to go. History has shown us that we are still repeating this lesson. Why aren't we getting it? Because we're not listening? Arrogance? Or, is this belligerence being used as a means to another's end?

Positive Mental Attitude

I know it's difficult to have a positive mental attitude, especially with those that feel they live in a swamp with alligators constantly nipping at their rump.

However, any journey out of the swamp takes your decision to make the first step toward dry land.

Sure, there may be extenuating circumstances, but you must keep moving in the direction you want.

Most importantly, don’t sit in the muck looking for an invisible hand to pull you out, because it may never happen.

Mature Love

I've often been asked questions about relationships and love throughout my adult life but especially since making videos on You Tube. So I wanted to share something I've learned, which took me some time to discover.

My husband and I are still recovering from a cold. Just as we think we're getting better, we seem to relapse a little. Ugh. A cough can come on out of the blue. Yesterday, while eating breakfast, he suddenly started coughing and spewed his cereal across the table. Poor thing felt so bad but we cleaned it up and carried on. This morning, I noticed he had put a paper towel sheet at each of our places. I asked him why, since we've never done this, if we're only eating cereal. He said, it's in case we cough, we have something to cough into.

He often acts like Mr. Macho, his "it's a sign of weakness" thing, but it's little things like this that tells me how much he does care about things. Yes, he can be a frustrating pain in the butt at times, but so can I. Yet, I notice the little caring things too, as I'm sure he notices the things I do.

That's what relationships are all about. Not just the laughter, the loving, and the caring but the frustrations, the arguments, and even the disappointments. Also, its about earning respect and trust. To me this defines mature love as opposed to young love. In other words, love can be instant but love is always a work in progress.

Like a job, if you want to keep it, you have to work at it. You don't curse or steal from your employer expecting to stay employed. You can't expect an employer to be any less in order to keep employees. It's always a two way street. If you're giving and another is taking, it's not mature love.

Political Dissenters or Whiners?

I was watching the news earlier today and decided to vent. Lately, I've been watching the political rallies and listening to the "woe is me - I've been mistreated" mentality of political dissenters. Those who get escorted out of the rallies as if they honestly thought they wouldn't or that there wouldn't be a possiblity of getting hurt. Seriously?

The worse part is the news or social media who enables this whining mentality, as if these people have any rights when they disrupt peaceful assembly or that they've been persecuted because of it. Really?

Have they lost their minds? What about common sense in all this? What about choices? What did they think would happen by going into "enemy territory." Maybe the real reason is big egos, an excuse to sue for money, or both.

After all, would you intentionally walk into a lion's den, stir up the lions, and think that their DNA will suddenly change and they won't eat you? Would you?

Stupid is as stupid does. I have no sympathy. If you walk into risky territory, knowing it's risky, be prepared to pay the price. What did they expect, that the lions were going to give them a meal instead?

You Won't Believe the Dream I Had!

In 2011, I was "presented" with a question: "Are sci-fi (fantasy) writers getting ideas from us or are we getting ideas from them?" It was a very interesting question. What if it's both? From someone who's had some pretty outrageous dreams, as well as hearing those of others, this sounded quite plausible.

For instance, it could be our remembered subconscious dreams, being written down by our conscious minds and relayed to others through verbal telling, books or movies. However, what if it's our forgotten subconscious dreams being relayed to another's conscious mind, via universal thoughts, in order to write sci-fi (fantasy) stories? Either way, this, in turn, relays it to a multitude of conscious minds, through books and movies, which may affect their subconscious dreams.

Yet, what if someone didn't see said sci-fi (fantasy) movie and they still dreamed it anyway? Think of Alice in Wonderland and someone in a country with no ability of seeing movies or television, but had a dream about it. Can you imagine the telling of that dream to others unaware of the movie either?

Also, could someone be dreaming another's reality? Maybe in the telling, or writing, this "reality" dream, over time, becomes more farfetched, eventually creating sci-fi (fantasy) thoughts in the universe that would, over time, permeate into other's minds during their dream state thereby becoming the new story tellers when they say: you won't believe the dream I had!

Peacemakers

I have had causes that I've stood for but have done my best to do it in a peaceful and legal manner. This is evident in my blogs and videos. However, I've learned that causes can take time to make the desired changes. Yet, some causes may never change due to numerous reasons. They could, possibly, be irrational or unreasonable causes, based on wisdom of history and not wanting to repeat a painful past. Not everyone is savvy on history and the problems that have occured from our past or we wouldn't still be acting the way we do.

Or, maybe some just don't care. Some people aren't always ready to deal with new or better ideas. It has been known to cause anger due to fear of change. Angry energy that's going on around our planet is perpetuating more angry energy. Everyone seems to be jumping on whatever proverbial bandwagon in order to release any pent up anger. They may not even care what cause is involved, they're angry and want to vent, and it may not have anything to do with why they're angry. This often causes the bullying that is so prevalent today. It's a byproduct of their anger which may be channeled into self-righteous or self-gain platforms in order to feel justified in their actions.

To me, as I watch human nature in action, it appears that many haven't learned squat in handling their emotions, or "fighting for their beliefs" in a civilized manner. They're still provoked, like spoil brats not getting their way, and allowing the sulking to create ideas of blowing up things and people. As if that ever solved anything.

Apparently, I've been told, it seems we also have old souls returning, that still feel like warring, continuing their reincarnation in this manner. If this is true, then they haven't learned squat either. That's pathetic, because it entices young souls to learn from them. Their youthful energy is easily provoked with the turmoil of emotions they encounter in life. They don't have the kind of guidance that shows a more tolerable way of releasing that hormonal turmoil in a more positive manner.

It's not for lack of trying, we've had old souls returning and teaching peaceful ways but often to the detriment of their lives. Is it because we prefer hate and anger over love and peace? Of course, there are exceptions to every rule because I couldn't stand by and watch someone attack another, if I could protect them, just because I have a nonviolent idealogy. Even Jesus preached to turn the other cheek but those he angrily attacked in the temple didn't think he was being non-violent much less non-judgmental. I understand that there are times that we get pushed too far and have a right to defend ourselves or others. The point is, why are we still in this same mentality after all these years? Many people have done their best to show there's a better way to do things. Why do we still feel the need to crucify these peacemakers instead of learning from them?

After all this time, with all these master teachers who've return to guide, has it all been for naught? The often illogical and unreasonable hate continues and the angry and warring people may eventually destroy this planet. The meek may inherit the earth, if there's anything left of it or them. Yet, I pray the peacemakers continue to instruct and, hopefully, one day we'll all be enlightened with this awareness: peace without starts with peace within. Maybe then, we can finally be rid of ancient ideas that the only way to accomplish anything is with anger, fighting and wars.

Today's fantasy begins with one step for tomorrow's reality.
