Taking Action ~ Taking Responsibility

                      ~     When we choose to keep the door of Faith open, Faith will respond.    ~
                  ~    When we choose to keep the door of Hope open, Hope is always with us.    ~
        ~    When we carry the energy of Love within us, Love will be evident in what we see and feel.  ~
            ~   Love will permeate our Life and lift us Always  ~  It will become our sustenance.   ~

                    ~   We may not be able to change the current circumstances in the world, but,    ~
                                we can choose the energy we bring into our personal world, within.
      
                   ~   Light, Love, Peace, Faith and Hope all expand our world, but their opposite   ~
                                 will constrict and obstruct our world from expanding and flowing
                                                            and following its natural course.

             ~  For the Western-born soul who is brought up with knowing the outer-life as the only life,   ~
                          and not shown any other aspect of life from parents or carers, this inner-world
                                                       concept of living can be difficult to grasp.                 
            ~  Suddenly, the outer-life starts to challenge, disappoint, and at times even crumble around us.  ~
                                           The social structures and way of life are rapidly changing.
                                   Confronted for the first time by a way of life slipping from our grasp..........
                  Where is there to go............what am I to do..........I feel so helpless, is the usual response.
                                 Fear sets in as that is the human response that readys us for fight or flight.

  

~    For perhaps the first time in our lives, we are forced to look elsewhere    ~

                                                 for comfort and peace, and possible guidance. 

  ~    Our searching leads us back to ourselves    ~   

~   Perhaps there IS something inside that can help and guide.   ~

  ~    Forced into this journey of inner-viewing and expansion of awareness,    ~

                                       the outer-world crumbling around us has become the catalyst
                                                  for ultimate freedom from the physical realm.
                                        Not always a physical death is necessary for this freedom,
                                        but the discovery of a Divine Energy of infinite possibilities
                                                       in the depths of our Soul, our Beingness.

~    With steadfast determination, the journey continues inwards.    ~

                               ~    A smile returns to the lips........Ah Yes! ......... I remember !     ~
                    ~    With the realization that we create our outer-viewing of the world, through our   ~
                     understanding of the inner-world, new concepts of BEing and living in the outer-world
                                                                   begin to emerge.  
                                                    ~     A new awareness is birthed    ~ 
               ~   A feeling of Hope has returned that a new world can be built with new Awarenesses    ~
                                                    working collectively to uplift and sustain life.
          ~    Using these tools that we all have within, we begin, one by one, to create a world fueled     ~
                               by the Life-Sustaining Energy of a Higher-Love which does not discriminate.
                 ~     This Higher-Love is not just a warm fuzzy love, it is a life-giving Force that keeps the   ~
                                                       entire Cosmos functioning and expanding.

                                  ~    Each soul has a role to play     ~     We are not here by chance.    ~
                  ~   Nurturing and caring for various forms of Life on Earth is everyone's responsibility.   ~

                                                          ~       N A M A S T E      ~
