This is an important time for all of us to consider how we conduct ourselves. We all have a certain viewpoint and how we would like things to be. Although many of us may have discovered how to improve the condition of our lives and the world, there are still many others who have not reached these conclusions just yet. They do not understand what is best for them and how to create what they need in their lives. If you recall, to a great extent, we must accept this reality and let others find their own way. We need to keep in mind, always, that with more knowledge and experience comes more power to influence. This is where we need to be cautious. You see, we can want something so bad that we lose ourselves and attempt to force what we want on others. This brings in the opportunity to manipulate others in order to create what we think is correct. The manipulation of anyone, no matter the best of intentions, is a misuse of our power. This is not the way, for we cannot force change. I understand the pressure many of us are experiencing, and the difficulty of finding the patience required in order for us to trust and be comfortable with the process. We must let things unfold as they will when the time is right. We must also understand that we may not have the kind of control and power we believe we have. Remember our good friend, humility.
If our intent is to help and bring in necessary change, we must do so while maintaining our integrity, by respecting the rights and freewill of others. Real power always comes from love. This must be in place before we proceed with anything. If we are fortunate enough to have found better ways, we quite naturally wish to see others have the same. This is a good indication of our ability to love and support. We can view those who do not have the knowledge and experience we have as our younger brothers and sisters. They hold the belief that assistance, change, and creating what they need comes from the outside. On the one hand, we see the need to educate them in order for them to develop greater understanding to have the skills they need. On the other hand, we know it will be some time before they are ready. You can see the dilemma here. If you look at a child, for example, they will inevitably get into trouble due to a lack of experience, but we would never force them to understand something they cannot understand just yet. We relax and trust, through our compassion, by remembering that we found our way, and they will too. Again, we must always consider the condition of vulnerability that exists.
There are, unfortunately, many people in the world who think it’s ok to exploit the vulnerability of our younger brothers and sisters. They believe it’s acceptable to manipulate them in order to acquire more power and get what they want. This is a tragic human condition indeed. For those of us who have found a better and fairer way to achieve, our hearts cry out for a solution to this problematic situation. The biggest obstacle to change and progression is the selfish behavior of a few. So, once again, we intend to move forward in the best way possible. There’s no need to be concerned as to what happens to the individuals and leaders who misuse their power, for the ego always destroys itself in the end. We can let that go. What we need to focus on is the protection of the vulnerable. We must find a way to lovingly support and assist them while not standing in their way. Education without force, and a great deal of patience, is the best answer. We need to remember that every individual, regardless of their knowledge and experience, has a voice and a right to express themselves. This includes their right to vote. Considering what’s involved here, it’s easy to see why change happens slowly. It’s ok. What we can do to help protect those who do not know what is best for them is to remove the leaders who have no intent to serve their best interests. We work on the behalf of the less fortunate with our vote and action. We cannot afford to hold the misunderstandings, misconceptions and incorrect decisions of those who are unable to truly care for themselves against them. They will learn. We have learned. This is all we have to know. We can, however, provide the best conditions for them to do so. We must never forget that the end does not justify the means. Even if our intent is good, and we wish to only create good things, we must avoid manipulation, coercion, and exploitation in order to get there.
There is a higher plan. We can let the plan work out. We don’t have to know everything, we only do what we can do. Everyone’s best interests will be served with our love, compassion and incredible patience!
All my love and support, be well
