I look around and increasingly I am seeing more and more anger and frustration… our planet is being ripped apart piece by piece and it’s time it stopped. It’s time we stepped back and looked at why we are so angry and frustrated. In short, it’s time for a Peaceful Revolution.
I don’t care what colour your skin is... I embrace you, I love you. You are my equal.
I don’t care what religion you follow... I embrace you. I love you. You are my equal.
I don’t care what gender you are... I embrace you. I love you. You are my equal.
I don’t care what nationality you are... I embrace you. I love you. You are my equal.
I don’t care how wealthy you are... I embrace you. I love you. You are my equal.
I have no doubt that I have left other equally important things out of this list but you get the point I am trying to make, right? We should be embracing one another for who we are, not trying to force our beliefs on others. We should be respecting that everyone has a Right to believe in what they wish and we should respect that Right. We should be looking at what connects us, not what divides us. We should be rejoicing in one another’s individuality not trying to turn everyone into compliant little clones. This is not the way forward, this is not Unity, this is control.
Divide and Conquer
Definition: in politics, sociology and economics, a strategy to gain or maintain power.
If you look around you, it’s everywhere. The politicians, the monarchies, the media, those who are making decisions for the rest of us and forcing those decisions on us. Keep everyone busy fighting amongst themselves leaving the field wide open for the politicians and rulers to do what they want. I don’t want to be told who to worship. I don’t want to be told how much I should weigh. I don’t want to be told who to love. I don’t want to be told what I can’t do. No one single person has the Right to inflict their beliefs onto another. We are individuals, we have a brain, we can think for ourselves… but increasingly even this Right to think for ourselves is slowly being stripped away from us.
Oneness
The definition of oneness, the quality of being united into one; unity of thought, feeling, aim, etc.; harmony; concord; the fact or state of being unified or whole, though comprised of two or more parts.
Peaceful Revolution
The way I see it is a Revolution is coming. Now that Revolution could ultimately turn into the mother of all wars or it could go down in history as a Peaceful Revolution. For example, increasingly in the UK, people are becoming concerned about the levels of immigration and it is showing by the way that people are treating one another. Frustration is a boiling pot, before you know it, it turns to anger and anger in turn can lead to conflict, retaliation, war. Don’t take your frustrations out on the immigrants… direct your energy towards those that have allowed this to get out of control. Don’t take your frustrations out on those who milk the benefits system…. direct your energy towards those that have allowed this to happen. Don’t take your frustrations out on those who pay no tax…. direct your energy on those that have allowed this to happen.
These people you are angry with… look at them, they are Hu-man Be-ings, just like you. It is not their fault. They are not personally responsible for your frustration. They are Individuals who are just as entitled to living their lives as you are, do not take out your anger on them.
Notice I have written, direct your ENERGY… it’s time to stand up and let your voice be heard. I would be incredibly naive if I thought that one person could do this… but United, what starts as a whisper can turn into a global scream. I would also be naive if I thought this will happen overnight… it will take time… but United, what starts as a ripple can turn into a tsunami.
This is where Oneness truly comes into its own. As One we CAN make a change. As One we can still retain what makes every single one of us unique. Some of you reading this will no doubt be thinking, what difference can we truly make? You only have to look around you… every day people are standing up against corporate greed, cruelty, oppression, violence. And they are doing is PEACEFULLY. They are speaking out, no longer afraid… petitions, demonstrations, blogs, social media posts… and changes ARE happening.
We owe this to not only our children and future generations but we owe it to ourselves… conflict, violence, greed…. all these things CAN become our Past not our Future, if we truly want it and are prepared to stand as One.
We all share one thing in common… we are all Hu-man.
John Lennon probably said it best… Give Peace a Chance. What do we have to lose? From where I am standing, we actually have everything to gain.
If you have reached the end of this article, I thank you for listening. So have I lost the plot? I’ll let you decide…
May you walk in Unity, Harmony & Balance…
