This Week's Reflection

 

The "reality" that you encounter in the media, mainstream or social, is not the real world. It is teh collective creation of normal crazy people. That's what sells newspapers (in the old days!), that's what generate clicks and online sales.

 

Immersing yourself in that stuff is akin to allowing yourself drown in clawing, sticky, treacle... or worse!

 

That said, we don't have to get out of the treacle, we don't have to shower ourselves down - there is no treacle. Yes, it looks real, it feels real, it sounds real and works so many people into a frenzy but none of it is real.

 

So, when we talk in this week's video about "leaving the old world behind", it is more of a metaphor than something from which we actually have to struggle to break free.

 

There is no struggle - only thinking makes it so - and we are already free. We just need to become aware of that and, then, allow ourselves be.

 

This is how and when peace dawns on us. This is how we allow our energy flow. This is how we allow ourselves be sufficiently present to start changing our own little world. And, once we start changing our own little world, that change impacts the world of those around us. Who knows where that ripple effect might lead.
