The Day Has Come

The day has come for a most fundamental change, a breakthrough that transcends all boundaries.
Humanity has reached a crossroads – there is no going back – the “acceptable” mode of behavior has served to bring destruction and defeat.
The infection caused by our sickness has spread to afflict all that is around us – Earth Herself is chafing under the weight of our mighty callousness and utter disrespect.
The day has come when we must stop what we are doing and look at who we have become – open our eyes and see the damage we have done. There is no point in hiding, there is no place to hide – the sins of our fathers have destroyed our sanctuaries, our hiding places – we must stand in the face of the evil we have allowed to run rampant, we must destroy the Devil that we created – the scapegoat that we laid our maliciousness upon.
The old ways, however, will not work – we must open our hearts to even older ways – methods that have no name – no beginning, no end. The only cure for our sickness has been with us all along – for we were born from this “cure”, we are our own healing. Lay down your anger – your judgments, your self proclaimed righteousness. Take a look into your enemy’s eyes and realize they are your own eyes. As the battle rages around you – find your quiet place – remember who you really are and then, extend your hand to your brother, make a way for your sister, learn from your father and go, teach your daughter. In this family – to which we all belong – we must learn again to open our arms, take hold of each other, forgive ourselves and then look outward to pick up the pieces, rebuild.
Throw away beliefs that would only serve to separate and remember the Oldest Way...
– the way we all walked long ago – the Way of Truth.
We are not separate from one another – we are all connected – spun together in a wondrous weaving, lovingly created – a creation we are sadly destroying. The adage that united we stand, divided we fall – this is no mere quote, words strung together for effect. This statement is one of truth – we must go back to the beginning.
To all my brothers and sisters – humanity has reached a crossroads – we can come together and move to the next level – united – or we can fall – divided, our ashes blown by the winds, our Mother Earth continuing her travels without us.
I, for one, would like to continue our journey.
