How It Happens
on how the world changes for the better
A miracle. That’s how it starts.
One day, around the world, hearts just wake up.
The change which comes in this miracle’s wake is still measured in time.
But the change itself. The awakening. It happens all at once. A tipping point is reached; enough healed hearts around the world. It spreads. Just as the evolution of humankind from hunter gatherers to farmers happened around the world in disconnected tribal cultures at the same time—together we move from head to heart, all at once.
Finally, the collective human consciousness, so long marred in division and fear, will be overcome by such a simple thing; the heart.
Not one, but every beautiful, terrifying, powerful sun that each of us carries within our chests—activated.
Truths of the heart cause people within power structures to stand up. To call out. To break through and reach down, uplifting those of us whom are so under the thumb of oppressive systems.
Hearts of the oppressed will feel a freedom of forgiveness for those who played the role of oppressor, realizing the karmic weight carried from the burdens of that role, having sympathy for the traumas of the other side of this terrible dichotomy that has so separated us.
Beyond the cavernous gaps begotten from our rigidly upheld class systems, we dig moats of misunderstanding around little groups of ourselves—false barriers of perceived protection. These projections of self hatred, for the parts of us we deny in pushing away our human sisters and brothers, create fiefdoms of identity which turn all who don’t belong into an ‘other’.
This awakening of the heart will blast those divisions away.
Together, we finally realize how connected we all are.
In the aftermath of this collective realization, much will happen. Every person will feel called to forgive and heal with themselves and those they love. This healing will change people. Broken institutions will begin to crumble from the inside out.
Together, we will build new systems to replace the old.
Things will get easier. Slowly at first, but then faster and faster.
One day, we’ll look around and to see family in every person’s face.
We’ll all have the space and time to truly pursue a life of joy and gratification.
Not simply the gratification of base desires, and the modern creature comforts we’ve so come to rely on. But a contentment with the energies of our creative efforts effecting a real change upon the world around us. Truly, for once, a chance to take part.
No longer a slave to the banks and the billionaires.
Finally, we get to live and create a society which allows us all to pursue our passions and our hearts greatest truths, without chains holding us down.
Finding that as we each play our own unique role to the fullest. We enrich the world around us. We find love for everyone. And we find the truth of who we are.
Once and for all we learn to not be blind to those who have fallen by the wayside.
The societies re-built from within the dying embers of broken systems of old, at long last, embody the wisdom that we can’t let a single person down. The understanding that our work of creating structures and systems to live by is never complete when folks still fall through the cracks and suffer.
Never again do we turn a blind eye, as a collective, to those we are not serving. To those who need help. To those our system has failed.
So, we rebuild again, and again. From within. Loving the process. Not aiming to be done. With honesty about what’s there. Knowing that perfection is not necessarily achievable. That some people may always fall astray from our new golden civilization’s protection. But knowing in our hearts we cannot rest, we cannot be morally sound, unless we do our best by everyone.
Together. In this new world we create. Led by our hearts. We will all know love.
Gifted not from without, but from within.
Each heart a generator of the loving vibrations that will change the world. True to what they most authentically are. Protected in the light they generate from within. A conscious manifester in the world around them. Creating life and beauty and love everywhere they go.
I pray for our great mother to let this be so.
