  I think you are absolutely right Carolyn. So much makes no sense. Laws to take away freedoms to give away food from your own garden????? Laws to force medication on people??? So I have decided to sit back and try to see the perfection of everything. By seeing everything in its highest light - (to quote someone:) 'As a gift that will reveal itself when we no longer oppose anyone.' This is confusing my family as I have in the past fought the battles - articulating my displeasure and my reasoning in the paper and in rallies, but I have seen the benefits of allowing, of consciously shinging light on a situation, and the outcomes are amazing. Not only do I have peace of mind but the falsity of situations seem to be revealing themselves evermore to the general public. Another piece of wisdom I hold onto is - Let me no longer focus on changing your behaviour, but only on changing my minds interpretation of your behaviour. I release the need to judge and criticise. I am loving and accepting! And so it is.

  Of coarse there are alot of things to look at in this world, we have concerns, we feel things pulling us towards "them"... :)
  
  But unlike so many others, I don't think these things are put there intensionally by anyone, it's simply how things have evolved in our Society.  Cause leads to effect, etc...
  
  I don't understand why people are so "sure" these things are "set up". I just don't get that mentality ~  
  
  When you get past being a victim, which believing that basically does, you realize how powerful YOU ARE...
  
  And how much you CAN change things.
  
  That makes all the difference within yourself and this World!!!! :-)

    Yes...Yes. There is the endless struggle between the energies that bind and the energies that free. Some of us continue to create and yield the former because to move into freedom means allowing and letting go. That is a powerful step. Some will walk into that opening with excitement and jubilation. There are those that will continue to fuel the path of fear and bondage. I do believe that is part of the unfolding process, but will not get mired in that stagnancy as we position to shift, and that SHIFT is all about CHOICE.

  This may sound corny but I think some people who get into the drugs and alcohol are looking for that escape from all the distractions not caring that they hurt everyone around them in the process. Then maybe i am out to lunch with them.

  I was thinking that as long as people are trapped in the survival loup of poverty then I think there can be little room for anything else......as long as the population is in the water wearing life jackets all that they can think about is survival.....i don't watch the news and mostly a youtube kind of person.....;)

    I agree, in theory, regarding the notion of being "trapped in poverty". But, what does that mean? Poverty means different things to everyone, and the preoccupation with "lack" continues to energize that theme. We are far more impoverished in Spirit than in materialism. If we fed our Spirits, we would see that "we fuel our own realities". If we fed our Spirits, we would see that we are empowered to create a paradigm shift which would eliminate the perception of lack. It is difficult to accept ownership for our own state when it is painful, yet we readily accept the credit for the positive in our lives. The results flow from the same source: Our creations. Hugs!!

  also, there is a possibility that all this 'media rubbish' is averting our attention from more important events.
