When I look at the world through the eyes of history or politics, it seems so contorted and twisted, something we could never straighten out. But when I take a step back and look at the big picture, it all comes clear. It may not be a realistic world-view but it's valid. It makes me feel like I do understand and creating peace in my own life WILL make those much-needed ripples of hope, peace, and compassion. The thing is, there are so many people here. If we all stop trying to "figure it out" and start dwelling in peace, we could cause an ocean of love and calm that would embrace the whole world.awitchtryinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09626760512365562043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-117228672516231239.post-87610147525336725282010-07-21T23:58:34.213-04:002010-07-21T23:58:34.213-04:00"Now, now.

All you with more than you need, it's time to send some to these people because this is not fair." <br /><br />Please do that. Thanks :)<br /><br />P.S. I believe that we have to "be the change we wish to see in the world" b/c I believe it is only through that action that positive energy will ripple out to other beings and that this will help heal our global consciousness.Anahitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10623856754458731972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-117228672516231239.post-26492823479108333742010-07-21T17:51:14.822-04:002010-07-21T17:51:14.822-04:00I think you're totally right!

I believe a lot of the conspiracy theories, I just don't really want to know them. And sometimes the truth is revealed and it's terrifying. I think just seeing the big picture is healthier for me. It allows simplification. I need to have a distance from the details. It makes it easier for me to focus on creating positive energy and peace in my own life.awitchtryinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09626760512365562043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-117228672516231239.post-52269610916191120522010-07-21T16:16:03.678-04:002010-07-21T16:16:03.678-04:00I have found that politics and government is one s...I have found that politics and government is one subject that can be beaten to death! Getting to the truth of the matter will be rare.<br />Change happens with us and it is up to us to decide where we want to focus our energies or thoughts .<br />The conspiracy theories will always be there and the truth will never be revealed. Again this is just my opinion.Savira Guptahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17463773284421101573noreply@blogger.com
