Somewhere, in
each of us, there is a domicile harboring our creativity. A creativity that assisted in the development
of our personalities, character, Will
and integrity. As adults, we have stowed
away and disregarded our true and creative abilities. This was when we chose to ignore our personal
Someone! That day, we turned a cold shoulder to it and
stop breathing! What we accepted was to
seek a false cover of sorts to seek shelter from adverse conditions. We’ve lodged ourselves from interacting with
reality – choosing for years to engage only in fantasy! Come out into the Light and see Truth once
again!
As reported
by Mr. Dick Gregory, Sun Ra, and George Clinton of Funkadelic claim, there are
three rules that must be in play when the offer is made to wear the Universal
Truth Glasses; (1) never take them off once placed on the eyes to see, (2)
never again see things as they are presented, see them only as they really are
and; (3) never force someone to wear the Universal Truth Glasses. Our doses of daily local and national
activities reported in the so-called news tend to be more distrustful. While, at the same time we know that fears,
anxieties and false notions to “face up” to the realities before us has come. You may say “How is that possible?” For just a moment you need only to mentally seek
out and open the door concealing that quiet space in your mind. Imagine for
just a septillionth of a second to lock out and put aside all pre-conceived
notions, thoughts and ideas. With space
and time now suspended, listen to your Someone;
and allow your soul to stand front and center to announce the general agenda
for Self and Human Kind. The true desire we need to perform life’s work lies in
the energy we can produce to reinforce the needed Will power to stave off negative actions that have the capacity to
disrupt, destroy and disintegrate the smallest to the largest positive efforts
we put forth for ourselves and others.
Intuition is ignited and once again, We Breathe!
Changing the Culture - Creating a Vision!
This intuitive
process embraces and sets loose our creative abilities. When we perform acts it
is not usually for personal benefit only.
As social beings, we generally seek to engage in work generating
positive outcomes for others; our children, friends, associates communities and
professions. In doing this, we benefit
from the residuals the effort creates. Intuitively,
we need to begin the process of halting our selfishness resulting from the
consistent myriad of assaults involving materialism, capitalism and vile forms
of hatred, greed and anger. We need to
leverage a sense of selflessness which frees the mind and body of the ill-chosen
actions associated with the “press of time” in the western world.
Our
individual and collected efforts to minimize the selfishness of our existence
will create the paradigm necessary to elevate Love as a means to understand and act upon ignored issues and move
from decades of unproductive efforts of treating symptoms and start confronting
the illnesses!
Today an understanding
of values and character development is underachieved, undervalued and
misunderstood. When in recent societal history
has it ever been as desolate in previous generations as we experience now with
black youth, young children and LGBT deaths, school dropout and drug deaths
rates in urban communities? How is it
that years of marriage and rates of family stability were higher during slavery
than exists in today’s families! Why, under the harshest and most wretched period
were families strongest? Because there was a single-minded purpose among a
people for their survival. A knowledge
of the need to collectively work as a group to protect and nurture elderly and
the young for a better future.
Today, the
dismantling of poor, color, and minority families and people continues with
purposeful intent from not just governing bodies, business and societal
institutional sectors. There has always
been a selected 1% of individuals world-wide who conduct destructive activities
holding the masses of people down. The continued
systemic undoing of a people has wreaked havoc not only on them but on the
general society as a whole! Now that
white youths are dying from drug overdoses at record levels it is considered an
epidemic. An antidote has been developed
to intervene during a heroin overdose. What
was it considered during the 40’s through the 80’s when poor and people of
color died of heroin, cocaine and crack overdoses in the hundreds of thousands?
When drugs sanctioned by the government
poured in to black and poor neighborhoods?
Just a Hot Mess!!!
We have got
to re-gain leverage on a denigrated process allowed to grow, fester, and poison
generations of all people. Surely,
native and black Americans have suffered hundreds of years, however newer
populations have been heaped onto the pile as well. Our efforts today must force a re-examination
of an intended process that refuses to accept, relent or rectify a racist implicitly
biased system used to maintain barriers and paltry conditions with little hope
for change for far too long impacting far too many!
How is this
achieved may be the next question that comes to mind. Remember the creativity and imagination
spoken of earlier? They have to be
re-claimed and taken out of storage.
These tools allow us to listen actively to what we say to
ourselves. This is a process of
re-activating the mind, the thought process that at one point you may have been
told led to nothing … was useless and created an idle mind! Are you prepared to place the Universal Truth
Glasses on your eyes?
