It's been a long time since my fingers have danced upon these keys. I have no idea why. I've been somewhere in a deep funk....for weeks.
I can probably attribute it to many factors, some true and some false. I could place the blame outside of myself, or sit and listen to the Voice, that lives in my head, whistle a tuneless tune while it waits for me to come up for air.
I've let myself slip.......Slip into the quickly moving stream of chaos that floods the mainstream media and social networks. I feel I'm drowning in the rising tide of division, hate, ignorance and the lack of facts. I feel helpless. I feel lost.
I picked up a favorite book, Into The Light, by John Lerma MD. The story that I opened to was about a dying man, William, share what the angels let him see before his death. William had helped to murder hundreds of innocents during the Holocaust.
".........and a message filled his cells with the understanding that God had allowed everything that had happened in order to teach humanity to stand up against evil. He was told that, because of free will, man was destined to experience darkness and goodness. God's plan for the independent soul was to learn to evolve away from hatred, fear, arrogance, and pride, and move towards pure love. The Holocaust was not created by God, but rather by the raw darkness within man and intensified by man. It is up to man, with the acknowledgment of God, to not fear or try to control these events, but to learn that, with only God within us, we can defeat that darkness. We cannot do it by ourselves. William said that is the biggest lesson: Learn to depend on God and He will use your free will to make the right decisions and save humanity............When a great drama is played out on the earth stage, the whole universe is watching, waiting, and feeling and integrating the lessons. ............It is time to embrace our divinity and change our purpose from survival to co-creating a better world. The choice is ours. The time is now........."
Regardless what you're individual beliefs are, this much is true....United we stand.......divided we fall.
