Rethinking Humanity



"One Day, I heard a voice inside me that was sincerely concerned for the future of the earth and humanity.  That voice asked, Would a world where all life-forms on this earth live together in peace and harmony be impossible? 

That voice answered, If all people really wanted that and chose that kind of world, why wouldn't it come true?" - Ilchi Lee excerpt from page 164: The Call of Sedona Journey Of The Heart.

The ability to choose.  Simple as that.  The author explains we all have innate greatness within us which evokes a spark of passionate desire to search for divinity which leads to doing a good service for others.  

People make choices daily that affect the whole world.  The ultimate unifying power is universally agreeing on particular subject matters.  The most successful of them all are based on the ideas revolving around money, its value, use, and desire to obtain it. The use of currency is an acknowledged universal choice made daily by the majority of the earth’s population for trade.  If we can universally come together with money it can be done with anything else. 

Naturally, people disagree but no one would admit to others that the desire for peace and harmony is wrong.  Does it meet the bottom line when it comes to obtaining profits?  No, not at all.  Society has built the measurement of currency as a way to distinguish groups from one another, oppress people into getting them to do work that needs to be done to generate more wealth, and establish hope for a better life.  This is completely different from unifying for peace. In fact harmony, respect, and peace are not as profitable as war, famine, economic disasters, and polluting the earth.

*Distinguished groups are called classes.

*Oppressive behaviors include paying low wages, slavery, create poverty from bad economic conditions, war, incarceration, restrictive education requirements ie.

*Hope for a better life is the most challenging because hope is used against the majority of the population as encouragement of society remaining unchanged urging that things will always get better.

Peace and Harmony contradict today's idea of profit driven motives.  Motive and desire can be looked at as key tools that encourage one reaching toward a goal based off a set of beliefs. 

If one American Dream is to become rich and famous, could that concept be more unrealistic then having a dream of being a driving positive force the community where there is none?  Say for example we had peace and harmony; would the concept of being a driving positive force even exist?  We must realize we are one.  We are different in appearance and destiny but we are one as a human race.

Imagine humanity as different flowers, some are big and others are small but all are none the less beautiful. Some live a few days, other's only come alive at night, still a few survive a whole season only to wither away and then return the next year.  They are complete so long as they have soil, water, pollination, and the sun.  

In our world, all human's come in all these different shapes, size, statuses, and preferences.  All human's have to have their basic needs meet in order to live.  Empathy, bravery, sympathy and so on proves we have connections to people we do not know. These connections are stronger with situations we either relate to or have interest in and weaker in places we don't. None the less a connection remains no matter how faint.  

It has been said that there are six degrees of separation between each human being in the world.  If you can release one droplet of water to vegetate your fellow women and men to help assist in the arrival to a sense of wholeness, then you have began a ripple that has the potential to affect multitudes of individuals around the world. Money comes to pass, people come and go. The flowers live and then they die but your energy will follow your footsteps.  You are the definition of what humanity can be.
