In
today's uncertain world, we are once reminded of the awesome power
of Nature. The tsunami tidal waves that hit Southeast Asia showed
the power of Nature and the fragility of human life. Yet among the
tales of despair, some people survived against all odds. Makes one
wonder about life and it's meaning. There is more to life than what
we think. On a conscious level one cannot understand why some people
perished and some survived. I have my own theories. A little four
year old boy who miraculously survived in a tree for over two days
without water or food. Why did he survive when his whole family,
home and world drowned before his young eyes? I have a four year old
son so it pains me to think of him being in a similar plight. Yet
there must be a reason for that four-year old boy surviving. Hmmm.
Strangely we do not see dead animals, dogs or cats littering the
beaches where the tsunami struck. Perhaps it reminds us of the need
to tune into our sixth sense a bit more. The tsunami is a wakeup
call. The shifting weather patterns, earthquakes and melting polar
icecaps are all signals reminding us about the changes that are
happening across the world. It is time that we use our minds to see
through the effects towards their causes.
What can we do?
Become a champion.
Each person must become a champion for change. Think big yet start
small. Seek not to change the outer world but begin with your inner
world first. Learn to connect with your inner self. Listen to your
intuition. Your intuition connects in with the vibrations of the
universe. Like the animals it can sense shifts within Nature's
energy fields. It begins with you stilling your mind and really
listening. Then overcoming your own fears in your quest to champion
a greater cause.
Turn your mind towards solutions.
We have created more advanced technologies than ever before yet we
still struggle to live together without fear of the other person.
Turn your mind towards solving our world's greatest problems. Begin
with the five biggest problems in your life. Seek to solve them as
your contribution to solving the world's problems.
You
are not alone.
Many people are making small changes in their lives. Although media
and newspapers portray mainly bad news, there are still people of
honour, goodwill and vision who wish to make a difference. The
survival of our human species and our planet is causing people to
connect at a higher consciousness. Small shifts lead to major
changes. This is happening all over the planet. People are asking
questions about how we can change our lives and world for the
better. It gives you a sense of connectedness when you think that
people all over the world are feeling something similar to you right
now. People are re-evaluating their lives. In living rooms,
classrooms, prison cells, wheatfields, ski fields, temples and
hospitals. Change is happening.
Start now.
Start to make changes in your life now. Many people are waiting for
a new leader to emerge, someone to say "follow me". Well, the irony
is that we all need to become a leader of sorts. We cannot abdicate
our own responsibilities by looking towards someone or something
else. Just look in the mirror and start there.
Muhammed Ali once produced the world's shortest poem when he simply
said "ME, WE". It's a simple message that can perhaps save an entire
species.
