These thoughts are bold and caring. I love the way you create a conscious swarm of energy. That energy becomes your benefit. Thank you for sharing this with me.

I enjoy your perspective. Having spent my youth in the “Make Love, not Peace” era, I can say it was truly a transformation of youth trying to have a say in their life and suffering from battle fatigue.

I’ve found through the years, that just below the surface is great passion mixed with anger, and it doesn’t take much for it to surface.

So tell me, from your perspective, how do we create a dialogue with those who claim to want peace from a position of anger?

Keep up the great work.

>>> So have conditions really changed? Or possibly is it that our awareness of those conditions has changed?

And is there after all a difference between the two ?

How can one know conditions without knowing awareness of conditions ?

How can conditions be proven to exist apart from awareness ?

;o)

Blessings,
Chris

Suzy, It starts like anything else, from a posture of unconditional love which includes non- judgment.

Hi Chris, I choose to use my energy being aware and knowing the result of my awareness.

We need bold statements at this time. Too many people don’t take responsibility for their thoughts, their actions or their lives.

The analogy I like to use is that each and every one of us is on a stage by ourselves. We look out into the audience. Those in the front seat influence our reactions the most while those in the back have less influence. Who do you want close to you – those of like mind who choose love and peace or “doomsayers” that we are in trouble and it is just going to get worse.

I made the decision this year to create a high vibration for my life, make my own choices and accept that I write, direct and star in my own life. Whatever experiences I bring into my life, it is my choice.

Great Article Steve!!! reminds me of a quote..

“You must be the change you wish to see in the world.”
~Mahatma Gandhi

While easy to say, not so easy to do.. mainly because the more you evolve consciously, the change you wish to see… changes. Bringing one to a point of unconditional acceptance of what is, now the path to true change is clear.

An easy lesson in peace and harmony is not only realizing, but knowing that chaos is in perfect order.

It’s one heck of an exciting “Journey”.

Once again we are at: Thoughts become things..Choose good ones! As you Think – So You ARE. If we believe ourselves to be prosperous and happy – we are..This flys in the face of material possesions folks who feel they must OWN everything… There is freedom in few possesions, and your mind and emotions are likewise freed. I believe this is why so many Love Camping.

I empathise with your thoughts here. I feel very strongly that as we are bombarded on so many levels with what is effectively ‘gossip’, highlighting economic disaster, human misery and violence, our focus is on that and we, as a population, ‘believe’ in what we hear. I don’t want to be closeted from humanitarian need; I choose to help where I can. However, I think that what we’re told and exposed to as a nation becomes a self fulfilling prophesy, just because we ‘believe’ it. That lovely hippy term ‘bad vibes’ beautifully describes the negative energy that develops and rather than shield ourselves from it, we need to broadcast the positive too.

Bravo Steve!
Perfect reading after my morning meditation as I was guided to read this post this morning.

Hi Steve,
Wonderful observations. The more I focus on potential and positive energy, the more success I have and the greater my inner peace.

When I am experiencing inner peace, I am more effective at communicating a positive message. Manifest Mastermind has provided several powerful tools for me that help with both.

Suzy, you raise an age old question. For me, the solution has been to work on myself and work on communicating with the intention of love and peace. If someone is full of or is radiating anger, I only try to send them loving energy, hoping that the Universe and God will help them love.

Something Mother Teresa said had great impact on me and my thought process. It was to the effect of, “I won’t participate in an anti-war rally but will participate in a pro-peace event.”

With love and Roses on your Windshield,
Paul

Wow, man. This is so right on with where I am “at.” To be in a place of non judgement, acceptance, and love is a very powerful place indeed. When an individual truly grasps “inner peace” and freedom, that place of non judgement comes naturally, in my opinion. We are each children of light, and as Marianne Williamson said, “We are each meant to shine as children do.” If an individual can truly grasp that concept, they become unstoppable and in flow.
Namaste!

This is a great site!

I always have instinctively known when I was following my path or when slowly wandering off my path. Things just don’t feel or go just right. Chalking it up to a dream I had as a child, when I saw my future in my mind, I just shifted what I was doing a bit. That’s all it took!

Little did I know I was following the Law of Attraction! Introduced to LOA about 6 years ago was a big A HA moment! From then on, I’ve develop a conscious awareness of the Universe being right beside me, guiding me.

The fact that my actions also affects everything around me has made me whole. To be part of something so huge is awesome!

Thank you Paul. A lesson easy to describe and one I remind myself is to just allow my true self to be. We are individual manifestations of God and God is Unconditional Love.

Hi Barbara, it is amazing how the hippies really had a lot of ideas in the right place. Time for us to be hippies again.

I like the idea of being the star of your own movie. Key is being very clear as to the movie script.

Two thoughts:
First, regarding: Why did the hippies in the 60’s fade with the mantras “give peace a chance” and “all we need is love”?

My experience with having grown up amongst the “hippies” is that many who advocated “all you need is love”, or “free love”, were referring to sex, and not really love at all. Conversely, think about those who did understand and live as truly loving, peaceful, compassionate individuals. What may have happened? I think they manifested better lives for themselves and their beloveds, and no, the media won’t sell much copy reporting about harmonious existence.

Second, regarding being “the star of our movie”:
I have a recurring dream where I’m on a stage in a play and I don’t know the lines, feeling anxious and embarrassed, everyone staring, waiting for me to deliver, while getting angry that the director of the play hadn’t given me the script. What am I supposed to be telling the audience, what are they waiting for? I analyzed this when it happened a couple of months ago and pretty easily realized that I AM the director and I needed to get into the flow of the moment and improvise the lines. Or better, to channel the script from source and allow whatever comes to me to be the tale.

There. I just delivered my lines, at least for this act.

Thank you for you view of the 60′s and your message about being the director. As for channeling from the source, my belief is the Source and the associated guidance is within.

If everyone knew and felt peace within themselves, there could be no war.

God lives vicariously through us. S/he has no judgment so living in peace can EZ-ily be obtained if one makes the same choice.

Resistance to anything only brings more of what you resist. It is better to simply think peace or as I like to say “Divine love is in my life now.”

Every difficult situation is immediately changed.

I do believe the Internet has helped peace. Humanity is connecting on a one to one level. The media no longer has control. Awareness is being expanded and once a mind has been stretched, it can never go back to the old way of thinking.

It’s all good!

I grew up in the “Give peace a chance” era but I have to admit that I refrain for watching the news and I do not receive the newspaper. I believe that what you focus on expands and too many people center their days around finding out what happen in their community and the world. Unfortunately it is predominently not good that we are exposed to. I personally try to spend my time finding ways to assist people in growing and improving their lives and the internet allows me to reach so many more. I do believe we attract to ourselves that which we receive. In order to change that, we must change and that is difficult for a large number of people to understand. I believe that Prosperity or Poverty is your choice. But to move from one to the other requires change. And when enrgy and vibration change so will that which you attract to yourself.

Bonnie – I have discussion regularly with people who are clear about their intentions to assist others. The most powerful way we do that is to make sure we have a very solid foundation within.

Yes, I have little doubt that all people, you and me included inadvertently allow ourselves to be disturbed by harsh words or actions of others deliberately or unintentionally. Why? Because they touch beliefs and values that have somehow not been recognized at all or integrated properly. In years gone by and living a very pragmatic life all such talk of love and peace did seem just too wishy-washy to me. Then I began to study thinking patterns also the way the mind, body/mind works, which opened up a completely different understanding of love and peace as well as everything else in my life. So now when something touches a raw end, I immediately work on finding its place, meaning and origin. OK, so far so good but that does not always return my feelings to peace and love. Oh yes, in my experience most people live in one of varying states of peace and love but have just not noticed it as such. So how do we change that state of mind? Well it is to my mind something very personal and one has to test out various methods until finding the right one. Which one works for me right now? I stop doing whatever is current and focus on driving my new Bentley. It does not have the style and panache of my old 1947 Bentley but this new one does in its own way fill me with the joy of life, it is so right for me, I cannot really explain why I am so integrated with this car I feel as though it just wants to please me all the time. Crazy? Perhaps, yet no more crazy than a life of peace and love. In fact just thinking about driving or simply sitting in this car fills me with peace and love or put in a different way, the thought of this car has the capability to change unhappy or disturbed feeling into peace and love feelings. Silly really how a simple thought, the right thought can change my world. For those who would say what an environmentally unfriendly car to have, I might say that it produces less than 100grms CO2 to the mile running on bio fuel. Oh yes the other point, I have not bought my Bentley yet, all the same I know how wonderful that feeling is. You see I discovered that loving myself enough to enjoy such a fine car without any judgement opens the door to peace and love for everything else. That is of course how I create a new reality. The day the dream will become a reality the join will be so immaculate the reality of driving my Bentley will be exactly as it was in my dream.

Thank you Robert. Interesting my Bentley has the same feeling. It is still in the same showroom as yours but on its way:) Thank you for sharing and insight.
