What if today was ‘the day after’ ALL of our problems had been solved?
What if the multinational headlines were shouting glad tidings, that finally and at along last every person had a secure and comfortable home, all were well fed, good health was rampant, the arts were flourishing and that the people of the planet were all indeed prospering in all things….
What would YOU be doing…???
How would you fill your time…???
If there truly was nothing more to complain about… nothing to hurt us… nothing for us to rail against… truly, what would you do…???
And by ‘you’ I mean all of us, of course. Because really, if you seriously think about it, without pain and fear our whole system of ‘survival’ would…. whoops… I almost typed one of the ‘flag’ words supposedly being spidered by our Office of Homeland Security which, according to the news report I heard on network TV the other day, can get a post flagged for further inspection, thoughts about which make me cringe at so many levels that I must resist the urge to further digress.
Because my point is what if we — as a society — were finally able to muster the strength, courage, determination and fortitude to start behaving with decency, courtesy, respect, integrity, virtue and convivial regard for each other, all the time… which is (I assert with sublime confidence) what things will ‘look like’ the day after all the problems are solved.
There will be no more hatred because each person will have made the uniquely independent choice to extinguish hatred by treating all (not just some) others in the same manner as preferred, desired and enjoyed by self.
So again I gently ask, What will you be doing when this is how the whole world works…???
And what are you doing now, during this inbetween time, to bring the vision to life…???
Have a look at what the folks at Dreaming New Mexico are doing…
Are you ready to thrive…???
Come visit me on gozarks… Let’s get ‘er done…!!! (((hugs))) ~Christine
