"I am the dream and the reality..."
Once the power of change has found its way into your heart and hands, it is difficult not to see the world as ripe for opportunity… the opportunity to be transformed! If you can transform yourself, why not the “wrongs” of the world? In fact, if you can change anything, why not everything?
"... if you can change anything, why not everything?"
It isn’t about wrong though, it's about being the change you seek and acknowledging the paths of others. If you can build on the simple awareness that all of reality is perfectly designed, then you will have the basis to change anything and everything. If you can maintain that no change is necessary, then you will have permission to design anything you wish. The idea that the world must change is rooted in the belief that life is sacred. True, existence as matter is a sacred experience, but only if you allow the experience to be sacred. If you can’t hold onto a sense of peace, then why expect your surroundings to be peaceful? How can you demand change from others if you aren’t expanding in kind? The path to “saving the world” is a personal journey of example and diligence. Forward thinking is not always forward movement. Forward movement comes from the expectation and presentation of how the change can be. If you want to save the world, then you need to save yourself. Share through action. We don’t mean protest or paid advertisements… we mean sharing through the individual actions that deliver a feeling of joy. Joy is the loudest advertisement one can project. It is a beacon unlike any other. It courses through darkness without a bit of friction. Joy is the light that changes nations and rewrites the history to come. Joy is the illumination of the human soul. Without joy, it can be hard to see the perfection of your present.
"The matter of change is a matter of contrast..."
Knowing what can be, or “should” be is very different than allowing. The heart that allows, is a heart that has room to breathe in the sweetness of this life. It can be the change, because it is nothing but change. To allow is to be in the flow of life, to not hold tight or resist. To allow is to see that the opportunity to shine comes from the darkness. What you are concerned about is the degree of darkness, but what we are saying is that if you sit in joy, the “darkness” becomes brighter in degree. In a room full of happy people, darkness is someone taking a nap. It is all a matter of degrees and perspective. The matter of change is a matter of contrast; the happier you are today, the less you were yesterday. If you wish to save the world, learn to be saved. Learn to be everything you thought the world needed to be; everything you “needed” to be happy. Learn to share the light! It isn’t about helping others that are “less fortunate” and it isn’t about hugging strangers. It is about exploring the truth of your dynamic range; the whole of your intention as simple joy.
"Saving the world is simply a matter of saving yourself."
Within a given range, any person can find joy. Joy is but a moment of lightness and appreciation. It is found in the darkest depths and the lightest lights. It is simply the best part, no matter what the worst looks like. Joy is the where and the how you must travel; to know real change and live as a savior.
An old man once said, “I am the dream and the reality. If I could change my life, I would simply touch my own heart more often; with the kind of appreciation I reserved for others.” This man of age learned that self-love and the act of allowing our dreams to be the default expression is the key to living a holy design. Be the dream and facilitate its design through consistent self-satisfaction and caress. Saving the world is simply a matter of saving yourself. If you can do that, you’ll see the true beauty of today and trust in tomorrow.
