A Message of Hope and Change
All the different news from around the world have shaken things
up. Political, natural, physical etc. all the levels are being shaken up. The
people have suffered and those who weren’t there have suffered with knowing the
pain of others and feeling helpless to change the circumstances.
But all this pain is bringing forth a transformation. It is
making us realize what we shouldn’t put up with. It is showing us the value of
life we are given which we often take for granted. It also shows us the value of each other. In the midst of suffering and each heart-wrenching news I
noticed a common theme but not of hate, fault or revenge but of courage. In each
incident when people were in danger there were those who cared more for others
than for themselves. They put their life in danger to save those around them.
Not how many people suffered but many others who were saved due to the spirit
of some. That’s what gave me hope. I felt sad and proud at the same time.
It also made me realize the price we have to pay if we nurse
our hurts instead of healing or releasing them. The price the society pays when such hurt turned into anger is
fueled by an idea which destroys others. Don’t let anything even slightly close
to hurt, anger, sadness or resentment get into you. Release such burdens before
they take over you. Try to help those who you think have fallen into this. It
will not be easy, and you cannot cover it up with just happy thoughts. But it
is better to feel the pain of release than taste the poison it later becomes.
My absence for so long has been due to the time I have given myself, to work on
myself. But I felt the need to share this today.
Another thing we can do to help each other : Pray
I don’t know your beliefs regarding God but I respect them
all. I am not a religious person but I believe everything is energy. Our
thoughts do have an outcome and the outcome depends on the type of energy the
thought holds. Even if you don’t pray, sending a comforting thought to others
will help them in ways you cannot imagine.
So from today, at least once a day pray for: yourself, your
family, the people around you, the nature, the animals and the world. And all
of this can be done in a single prayer
Dear God/Energy/Universe (whatever you prefer)
Please help and protect me and my family, the people around us,
the animals and nature. Please give wisdom to those who are going
astray. Fill this world with love.
Amen
So be it, so it is (whatever you
prefer)
Hope, Comfort and Love
