Howdy;
I have been dealing with the usual craziness of not knowing what's going on with the world or my life like everyone else has been for the past few years. Let's face it, the world is a great place with a lot of opportunity and love, but there are a lot of people who feel they must control it and destroy it for others, thinking they are doing the right thing for themselves. Corporate greed comes to mind? Or how about Politics?
Well, even though I have been homeless for 9 months, I really have been grateful that my situation has not been worst then it could be. I have been blessed even when I don't feel that I have been. Little things, like seeing a penny on the street and picking it up. Sure, it's just a penny and not even worth the one cent value. But it's a penny that is there for me to find and to pick up. It's a penny that God/Universe said here is a little something to give you hope. To remind you that it could be far worst then it is...that life is still giving you something. I have figured that over the past year, I have found over $100 in coin and yes, about 3 $20 bills...lol. So in coin about $40 dollars worth. Over a 12 month period that's not much, but IT IS more then I had. Thus, I am grateful for it.
Yesterday, I had lunch with a friend of mine. We have been dealing with life over the past two years. Our individual turmoils and with each lunch we always seem to inspire each other for greatness, for joy and definitely for imagination. I the writer, him the movie producer. It's been great. No judgement, just support and an ear to hear what we need to say and get off our chest.
Yesterdays lunch however, was very different for us. We had commented on what things, items, we have gotten rid of in our lives, freed ourselves of. Then we acknowledged what is still ahead of us, and it was really very small in size compared to the past two years. A realization had come to both of us that life was good. Not great by no means, but good. We are in a position to move forward in our lives in a healthy way. I honestly can't explain it more. Yes, we could loose what little we have left in our lives, but it's so little it wouldn't phase us as much. We are not holding on to materialistic things. Our goals in life are simple: To help the Universe move forward. With that we wait to hear what our prayers and meditations deliver to us. What is it we can and will do to help the Universe grow healthier, wiser and definitely more loving.
We both were at peace with where we are in our lives. A peace that neither of us had really been in over the two years that we had during our near monthly lunches. We had our inspirations, our encouragements for each other as we always do, but we were at peace. It was beautiful!
Now the question is this: When in the Hell will things change direction and get ALL of us back on track to peace and love? Maybe never for everyone, but I honestly believe the time is very close at hand...and based on what I have been hearing, feeling and just know, it's very close at hand. Who knows maybe the 2012 predictions of the big change happening is actually going to happen. Not in the way of doom, but of great change...
I hope so. We as a society really need to get our shit together, replace the corruption that exists on so many levels and get our planet back on track to health and peace...LOVE!
Life goes on...I go on
