Recognizing the weakness is the true inner power. Allowing to be vulnerable. Is that permitted to you – by you?
Sadly, all too often the society & even ‘friends’ of the person who has been beaten down by life, beat him/her up about it some more. Like smashing a doormat. Could it be, because a person in that kind of a situation is not fully able to defend and stand up for him/herself?
When was it the last time you stood up for someone who couldn’t?
When was it the last time you spoke up for those who can’t?
It does not matter whether we are talking about victims of rape, child abuse, tortured animals … or a friend who is struggling with a personal distress, yet ‘’it’s best to give him/her some space & leave it alone, let it be…’’.
I read a great sentence today: ‘’put down that ridiculous not-so-SmartPhone and be human.’’
I encourage each and every one of us to look in the mirror & ask: do you/we really always give our best to help those of sad eyes? No words are necessary. Eyes speak loud & clear. Look at the picture, Robin’s eyes were sad. How many times do we talk to the person without even noticing something is wrong? We ask ‘’how are you’’ – but, do we hear the answer?
New age teachings speak of the world of duality. The essence of the dual in that world is the integration, coexistence, acceptance, connection… Does a human, in this day and age, know how to do that? Ancient civilizations (which did not become extinct, why talk about them as if they were on another planet, I wonder sometimes) respected & nourished COMMUNITY.
In short: The modern world is opposing the welfare of humans, animal brothers & Mother Earth, thus LIFE.
And each and every one of us is a human being. What are you going to do??
