“In order to change an existing paradigm you do not struggle to try and change the problematic model. You create a new model and make the old one obsolete.” ~ Richard Buckminster Fuller
Out With the Old
Unity, oneness, 5th dimension, intuition, meditation, multi-sensory human, evolving consciousness are all terms which symbolize the zeitgeist of the coming times. This time promises to install new ways of living and being, new ways of relating and acknowledging each other and all life. Signs of rampant cultural and social decay have ramped up, and last-ditch efforts by some to hang on to a no-longer working world and unsustainable life whimper as they disintegrate.
How much can one planet take?
“Dear reader, traditional human power structures and their reign of darkness are about to be rendered obsolete.” ~ Richard Buckminster Fuller, Cosmography: A Posthumous Scenario for the Future of Humanity
The change is already happening. You can notice if you pay attention. Even while we are daily assaulted by the horror stories of human suffering and desperation, signs of human kindness are also present. Signs that we are in the midst of a change are here. We’ve had enough of the dollar bottom line and are ready for a better way of doing things. Human innovation is meeting human need, bringing creative solutions to neglected problems. If you’re paying attention to only what you hear on the news, or see around you, chances are likely that you do not know what I mean. But those of you who are not fooled by appearances, can sense something different in the making. Things feel different. In fact, take notice of the ideas popping up which serve to benefit the whole rather than individual interests, and you will get the picture.
In With the New
You can be a part of this zeitgeist, this spirit of the coming age. Simply do what you know is right, is best, is urging you on from your deepest parts. There, in the deep lies the core which connects us all. There is the voice of reason.
“Never forget, no matter how overwhelming life’s challenges and problems seem to be, that one person can make a difference in the world. In fact, it is always because of one person that all the changes in the world come about. So be that person.” ~ Buckminster Fuller
Hope. It hangs in the air. But so does the promise of transformation. Don’t think we are lost. Stop, step back and trace the changes happening in the background. Daily, more people get the call. Be one of them. You can make a difference. So can I. We can move to the rhythm of the still small voice within ourselves. It whispers so that we will have to stop, be silent, and listen. Moving from that space will surely take us where we wish to go. We have the power to change.
In fact, we are the ones we have been waiting for. Somewhere inside you, you know it, too.
