As humanity enters a critical time of intense shifting there is a tendency to perceive the various destructive elements with a sense of fear, panic, denial, clinging and almost fanatical adherence to structures that are clearly in shambles.
Instead of recognizing our interconnectedness with the universe, we continue to insist upon our illusion of separateness. Our connection and interactions with the various elements of nature need to function in harmony with all the living beings who still survive on Mother Earth.
As the world economies falter we need to take the opportunity to look at what so many billions and trillions of dollars is being used for.
How much is being spent on war?
How much is being spent on plastic crap-- including bottle water and energy drinks?
How much is being spent on chemicals?
How much is being spent on education?
How much is spent on food?
How much is spent on coffee? Diet-aids, addiction treatment, drugs and alcohol, entertainment, toilet paper, 500 hundred roses for yr ex-girlfriend's birthday(random but true).
I'm just thinking it makes a lot of sense to re-evaluate our economic priorities and our opportunities.
Because think of what we could be spending our resources on...
Sustainability
Clean Water
Clean Energy
Feeding hungry people and children
Family farms, organic cooperatives and natural bio-diversity, instead of genetically modified organisms and huge agri-business.
Natural and holistic wellness and health care
Education
Art
Enlightenment
The economy is dependent on individuals, but if we act as one and make a commitment together to only support conscious products, we can revolutionize our world. Then we can co-create a different reality that is more in harmony with all the various factors that make up our existence in a human body, on the planet Earth.
