A New Phase

Imagine you had a friend with good and bad qualities and one of their bad qualities was that they murder thousands of people on a regular basis.  If you wanted to help your friend to become holistically healthier and happier, you might prioritize the improvements.  You might even come to the conclusion that all other negative issues are symptoms and by products of the primary anomaly of ongoing murder because the mass murder violates universal law in such a profound way that overall health and happiness simply cannot be achieved until this foundational issue is addressed.
The country of the United States is that friend with good and bad qualities and a monumental problem with ongoing mass murder.  72 bombs dropped per day in 2016 with an incalculable loss of human life.  We are the most aggressive,  violent and dangerous country on the planet, in the history of the world even with the modern level of war technology.  Our military budget is more than the rest of the world combined.  Healing first requires clarity of vision.  THIS IS WHO WE ARE.
 (We are the ones who do the knocking if you watched Breaking Bad.)  It is convoluted vision to see the US as great country or committed to social equality or committed to elevating humanity while perpetrating this kind of violence.
Our own domestic weak minority groups will never be safe as long as we continue to bomb weak minorities in other countries; this is karma.  We cannot be committed to growing strong together until we start performing global actions that are in alignment with that goal.
I am certainly not a Trump supporter but one thing I am extremely hopeful about is that now this ongoing global mass murder is on Trump's watch and I think American citizens are proving to be more outspoken about criticizing Trump's actions and holding him to a higher standard than with the previous administration.   I get it; Obama was smart, classy, a great orator and very handsome yet he still elevated the level of ongoing global mass murder to dramatically higher levels than GWB.  The Janus head concept of saying one thing and doing the opposite is actually taught in some circles and for whatever reason the vast majority of people were able to overlook or turn away from the global violence.  He is a mass murderer but he is pro gay marriage.  He is a mass murderer but he created the Affordable Care Act.  That kind of cognitive dissonance creates a deep level of emotional conflict in everyone of us and is an obstacle to individual healing and growth to be complicit in that kind of deception.  I voted for him twice; I know personally I was trusting him and counting on him to do the right thing for us so I honestly got caught up in regular life and stopped looking so much.  There was such relief when GWB was gone that I thought I could let my guard down and relax.  I got lazy.  That's on me.  It was when I stopped looking that all hell broke loose.
Now, I'm looking again.  I'm wide awake and seeing things with a new clarity.   What I see is so painful to look at that I understand why people don't look and turn to whatever instead.  But, it turns out I'm not alone.  The whole world is beginning to wake up to what we have allowed to happen.
What can we do?
1.  State in meditation or a quiet peaceful state of mind your intention-  I choose to live in a world where all beings are happy, safe and free, where we all enjoy abundance and personal sovereignty.  I call forth now a peaceful world where we live in harmony with Mother Earth and with ease of heart.  I bind any actions by negative forces and invoke my deity of choice to assist the world in this transition.
2. Talk about your choice on social media: if there is one thing a politician hates it is to become irrelevant.   Our leaders will change as we change.
3.  Choose hope over fear.  Optimism is success oriented.

This time of awakening is why we chose to be here now.  We are here to bear witness to a New Earth.  We are the ones we've been waiting for.
