Love is the Answer

Love is the answer. Full stop. Period. The End.

Today I sit here like many around the World with a heaviness in my heart that is not my own. As we sit here watching the suffering from the World events unfolding it is hard to not become overwhelmed in a world gone crazy. I don't know much about world politics, economic or financial systems or a lot of things but I do know people. I don't see race, religion, colour, gender or whatever differences you may think we have. I see souls. Energy within a vessel. For that is what we are - energy. Strip away everything else, everything external and we are all the same.

People, the masses, the ones not in power don't want war. They want peace. There are 8 billion people on this planet who let the powers that be play Russian roulette with our lives. War is never the answer, it is a self perpetuating cycle of hate that seeks only to divide and conquer. It is never a solution, merely a bandaid until the next one comes along. And so we rinse and repeat, never learning from our mistakes. Has history taught us nothing? Those in power have a responsibility to protect us, yes but you can never root out evil with evil. There is only more darkness, only the light can penetrate the dark. Generational trauma is reaI, from war zones, from bloodlines, our ancestors have passed it down. Hate breeds hate. There are no winners, only players. Stop playing the fucking game! The powers, not the governments, the true powers - follow the money - the ones who 'own' the World, control the world. How's that working out for us so far? What legacy are we leaving behind for our children? If we continue down this path we won't have a legacy to leave.

What if I told you that you have the power to make a difference. I'm sure some will scoff and laugh and say yeah right. How can I make a difference when I am but one person in a sea of confusion designed to distract us. That's what they don't want you to know, they don't want you to remember. We are all energy, everything emits a frequency and when you raise your vibration through little acts of kindness and love you help raise the vibration on the planet. Our world is a mirror of our thoughts. We are one consciousness - The 'matrix' of every single mind overlapping forms our reality. Thoughts such as love and authenticity carry a higher vibration. Hate itself carries a low vibrational energy but is amplified by fear. When you have masses of people hating their fellow man, war becomes at the forefront of their minds and becomes inevitable. Wars begin and panic spreads exponentially like a disease across the world as ordinary people fueled by fear buy into the negativity. The doom and gloom consumes and affects millions if not billions trapping them in this lower vibrational energy. You can make a difference. If people around you are lowering your vibration and constantly taking from you - cut them out. If you can't then set healthy boundaries to protect your energy. You don't have to put up with all the negativity. Use your discernment because some people are in your life for a reason not a season.

Seriously people, it's as simple as treating everyone as you wish to be treated. Hopefully for the most part that is good. How hard is that? Sure you might be having a bad day and slip up and let the forces of negativity win. Nobody is perfect but don't give up on yourself or the human race just yet. Try again, show love, kindness, compassion and learn to forgive each other please, for the sake of all humanity. Our very souls are being tested right now as we become cold, emotionless and impartial to all the atrocities in this world. By dehumanising your fellow man you become not so unlike the AI that 'everyone' fears will take over the world one day.

Metaphorically speaking there is an angel on your shoulder and a devil on the other. Love and hate, the positive and negative energy within you. So stand up and fight the devil, choose love and fight for God, whomever or whatever you perceive that to be! I was raised Catholic, however in my adult years I gravitated towards Buddhism. I however do not subscribe to any faith or religion, only a belief in a higher power. The truth I have found is no-one is coming to save you, you have to save yourself. When you accept this and realise that you are your own salvation you start to make changes that align with your higher self. Jesus knew this and reached enlightenment. 'He died on the cross for our sins'. No, he died on the cross for his sins. He showed us the way - 'I am the way, the truth and the life'. He was nailed to the cross, his hands and feet bound by the internal suffering. A crown of thorns upon his head representing the thoughts that plague and control our minds, digging in deep and keeping us bound. Jesus was born again by releasing the suffering and burdens of the cross we all bear. He rose - the rose, so powerful and symbolic. Our thoughts are the rose, so beautiful and enchanting if only we don't get cut by the thorns in our mind. His thoughts were of unconditional love for everything and everyone. Jesus unshackled his mind, took off the crown of thorns, no longer bound he lay down his cross - his burdens through forgiveness and love. We are all capable of attaining this one day. Once we begin the path to healing our inner selves through forgiveness and seek mastery of self through unconditional love we set ourselves free.

Most people know either consciously or subconsciously that love is the answer but are too afraid of their own shadow to look within and truly love it. People are not doing the inner work, they are not loving themselves and not healing the anger and hatred within. They are not forgiving everything and everyone. The planet needs healing and the only way to achieve this is to heal ourselves. As I have said in our messages "World Peace begins with Inner Peace. Hope for a better tomorrow. As Within, So Without." If you wish to see a world filled with peace, first become peace by embodying it. I believe at this crucial time we are all being called by a higher power, something greater than ourselves to remember that we came from light and we are the light. Creator source energy flows through all of us. We are all connected and all is one. By working together, forgiving one another, forgiving ourselves and loving unconditionally we start to heal ourselves and each other. This is the only way forward.

People will say I am crazy. Let them.

People will say I am naive. Let them.

People will say I am ignorant, stupid, heretic, whatever. Let them.

People will project a vitriol rhetoric of hate towards me. Let them.

I'm not perfect. I don't pretend to be. No-one is. We are all perfectly imperfect. When you accept that and learn to love yourself unconditionally, the good, the bad and the ugly, true healing begins. Balance is the key to live in harmony and be at peace with oneself. I truly believe that one day we can all live in peace, you just have to believe it too. Take your power back people and light the path with love and kindness so others may follow. Let your love be the light in this world that illuminates the darkness because, after all, love really is the answer.

May your hearts and minds be filled with love and peace.
