Respond to each Moment with Your Highest Truth...

There is a lot happening on the planet now and  I choose to believe that we are at the beginning of what can turn the human race into a peaceful, creative people.  Over the weekend I came upon an article that talks about what is going on and what the author thinks is happening.  I liked what he had to offer especially about what we can do:
“What can we do?
First we need to stop.

Then to surrender the need for any kind of outcome,

feel for a thread of consciousness that connects us to the whole,

continue to standstill until we can discern our highest truth,

expand into our fears, limitations and blockages,

respond to each moment from the grandest vision we ever had about ourselves,

we need to be bold and courageous,

follow only the Right Action we can feel in our hearts,

to give selfless service to those who cannot yet see so clearly.”

Good thinking don’t you agree?  Especially the part about “we need to stop”  and “expand into our fears, limitations, and blockages”  and “respond to each moment with the grandest vision of our highest truth”.
Really nice words.   The author’s name is Chris Bourne, the article is Running to Stand Still, and you can find the entire article at:   http://wakeup-world.com/2012/08/20/running-to-stand-still/

Self awareness, self healing.... healing the world...

We often feel like we should be doing more to make this world a better place.  And there are many who are doing much.   But there continues to be so much war and violence, the financial state of the world seems so precarious, there seems to be an increase of deadly diseases and chronic conditions.  And with the media focused on  the negativity we often do not learn of all of the good, positive things that are being done.   
So what can we do?  We can do the very thing that would solve the world problems.   We can work on our self.  
It is simple but would eventually solve all problems if we all were to take responsibility for ourselves and do what we can to improve ourselves.   Too much to ask of everyone, well probably,  too much to ask of myself... no,  I can do it...  Self awareness, self responsibility, self healing.... healing the world...
