It’s all Happening at the Zoo II

With the recent upheaval and upcoming changes to the financial system it seems that another one of the pillars of our society is falling. First we started with things on a global scale. Communism fell, the Catholic church lost a lot of credibility with their scandal, and multiple countries had politicians abusing their power and getting caught. The United States especially has lost a lot of its influence in the world over the past few years. Now we have the financial industry, the one that keeps us afloat, on the brink of bankruptcy and ruin. What does this mean?

I believe it means we are getting ever closer to a massive change in the way the world works. We are becoming more spiritual and the selfish and petty ways we have been running the world will no longer work. All the old ways have to change and change quickly. If we don’t make the change voluntarily it will be made for us and the speed at which it changes will feel anywhere from harsh to ‘life as we know it’ threatening. What can we do?

I have two quotes that I hope will shed some light on what you can do.

“A bunch of weak people, even in numbers, aren’t strong. Get a whole bunch of confused people together and see how much clarity comes out of it. In other words, you just can’t add one more confused person to the pot, and expect to get any more clarity… One—standing outside of the confused group—who is clear, is more powerful than a million who are confused.” – Abraham

“I would like to make a heartfelt request to each of you.  As things continue to unfold in the world around you, I would ask that you make a conscious effort to stay connected to your heart and to joy. What the world needs now is people radiating love and peace. Say a prayer, go to your center and feel the love that is there for you. Ask Spirit to remind you to bring forth that love into your life and trust that there is nothing more powerful that you can do than to radiate love for yourself and for mankind.” –Carol Billingham

Being a seeker means believing in change and that change is good. First and foremost it means believing that change in yourself is healthy and second, believing that change in society helps you change yourself. I believe society is about to change radically. How exactly that transformation will present itself is unknown but change should be showing in long hold institutions before very long.

The New Agers, born again Christians, Native Americans and various other groups have been saying for a long time that the world will go through a radical change. I have been waiting and waiting for something to happen and in the past few years have begun seeing many changes, including the fall of communism, the rise of China, the fall of the Catholic Church. severe weather changes and more. It’s now time to change the institutions that we count on for daily living to get us out of this downward spiral. 

We are spiritual beings living a human existence, yet we don’t act very spiritual. The United States was attacked by a radical fundamentalist group who do not believe in a loving God. What did we do? We took over two countries. The people earning most of the top dollars today are in the sports and entertainment industries yet most of the examples we hear of their lives are something we would not want our children to hear. And yes, the teachers who are responsible for raising our future leaders are some of the lowest paid professionals around. It’s almost like watching the fall of Rome.

What can we do? We can always begin with ourselves. Look for love in your heart even when it would be hard to find. You didn’t choose your mate just to find all their flaws so start expressing some of the qualities they have that you love best. I’m sure you didn’t want to raise your children exactly as your parents did, instead choosing to be the best parent you could possibly imagine. Start becoming that person. Read self help books, see a therapist, share your feeling about your life with someone close. Pay it forward by being kind to a stranger. Maybe it’s the cashier who is having a bad day and is grumpy. Just repeat the words “love, love, love” silently to them and see if there is a change. It’s actually fun. Remember, do unto others as you would have them do to you.

The world is about to get rocked. Make sure your foundation is a good one.
