Sparrow hello there and a happy New Years to you and yours
Your response is lovely. The first thing that came to mind was...what does this mean for me personally? Hmm
....well I personally really don't think anything is impossible...as I realise most of us didn't even initially come from this instance of our reality
To your point though, while it's true some things are rather unlikely, I too have been surprised at times by folks from whom I expected little or nothing. Sometimes simple kindness or courtesy or respect is the surprise, and usually it's always a pleasant one. One day, I hope that's much less the case and much more the norm.
But as to what seems impossible, then I thought of the environment and the Paris Accords, etc...and I thought, yes, this might very nearly qualify as seemingly impossible. So thank you for the words of encouragement on that and we do sorely need it.
While I don't think any society or certainly any one person is incapable of change (as we've all certainly seen rapid change in governments toward further misalignment, whether over a few years or over the last few decades)...TBH, I know that in any one lifetime, positive change (toward right alignment) may not be forthcoming. Even for individuals, change may take lifetimes to accumulate as we all have our journeys.
It took me around a half dozen goes thus far. See if any of this next rings familiar to you when you look round at society today. That first go-round, it was all about me, making my way in service to the local lord as his fixer and hapless minion when we weren't at war. I was happy throwing my weight around and using the lord's authority and protection to "get the job done". In our society, power and connection were everything and the common man had neither. Their lives were dependent on the whim of the powerful. Believing them to be inferior suited the powerful and allowed us to take what we wanted without consideration for their humanity or their vulnerability. Unlike most, I allowed them to draw their swords and make a stand before doing them in per orders. Meaning, I realised this was wrong on some level and took no pleasure in killing...but I did my rotten job anyway.
I was accomplished in battle, well-spoken and intelligent, but all those superficial aspects are not the measure of a man, and we are fools to continue to conflate any of these with true character. I was also supremely entitled and blissfully arrogant, yes, and a vile cad like so many others who callously deceived and used loads of innocent women. Our society did not value women and I so readily believed what I was told here...that women were weak and inconsequential (lesser beings). Thus, there was no need to touch them with sincere love...as they existed merely to serve.
Believing women were inferior suited us all...it allowed me and others to freely indulge ourselves on women without consideration for their humanity and their vulnerability.
Unlike with other men I had to kill, I never had more than a twinge of conscience for my callous use and disposal of women. I told myself unlike many in power (LOL) at least I was kind and was never violent or coercive. How loathsome. The sorry outcome of having lived this lifetime is also its gift...which is that unfortunately I know precisely how so many men like this think and how they see the rest of us. We may joke that we wish could forget it, but that's ultimately not true as we learn...and as we know, anyway ye cannot forget. Ye can only take it forward.
Now let me put it in perspective...I was considered mainstream and successful for my day, and I rarely if ever experienced fear or lack due to my position. Why would I have changed my oafish, heavy-handed, entitled ways? I was living large, getting over on the backs of literally everyone else's honest work. It took a blade in the back from my beloved best mate whilst still young to set me right in all other lifetimes, but that lifetime was a wash. Save that I know that mindset intimately -- and save that I know an overwhelming majority of those who are privileged and entitled are largely blind, deaf, and dumb in nearly all ways that matter unless they personally choose to continually and fiercely strive to hone the spirit...and to truly listen and make a place for others. If the global environment then had depended on me and those like me getting a social and political conscience, we'd have been doomed so FF that wasn't the case.
Except now here we all are once again...the seas are rising, the environment is under attack, we're poisoning everything...and as always we're beholden to the modern equivalents of my medieval self...many of whom are "in charge" and many of whom are a bit more entrenched and fanatically obsessed with keeping all others down. Yes, you could say karma certainly is a b*tch for you personally and I do see the irony but I'm not laughing now, nor was I in any of the lifetimes since then. I am just one of billions who is affected by what transpires now...and this is not just all about me.
For myself, I do understand that we have to continue to rise to the challenge. That things like clean air, water, and soil are treasures worth preserving and sustaining. Gaia's treasures are her own and are the birthright of all who come here. Likewise, our democratic liberties and rights and institutions, which apply to and encompass all and not just the elite and the powerful. Those too are treasures. And those treasures are our birthright, ultimately due all humanity but certainly due to those of us living under democratic governance right now.
And until it is universal, democratic governance will always be a threat to authoritarianism and dictatorship in any form, whether corporate or political -- and more broadly democracy is a threat to the pursuit of unfettered greed and power in general. To think otherwise is naive and disconnected and is to fundamentally misunderstand what democracy truly represents. But it's exactly for this reason, say, that we are so heavily misdirected into addiction, indulgence, and so forth by mainstream society...and why basic civics and government instruction is often omitted or "heavily redacted" in schools...all seeking to make what is open and natural (
our rights, our collective energy) into something hidden and unknown, or squandered and misdirected.
I do appreciate your inspiring words Sparrow, and I would like to better understand them. You say they are meant from your soul to mine, and that is a lovely and sincere thing. So I am following up. Do you mean that what would have typically taken lifetimes will come to fruition for many here and now? That the impending destruction of the globe will hit home for some of them before it's too late for all of us to avoid the worst of the effects? And that this might happen to enough of humanity to allow us to actually begin to act collectively in humanity's and Gaia's mutual interests?
Peace & blessings Sparrow
