And this is a big issue, isn’t it?
All our lives, we have been programmed to fixate on “leaders” and not to look to the right or to the left of us and to see who is actually there, who shows up for us because they actually care about your survival and the welfare of your people - and who stand in observance of mutually arrived-at patterns of right behavior - actions that rest upon a timelessly accountable morality that we can be seen and felt in the flesh - a humble code of responsible behavior that lives inside of all of our personal relationships.
I fear my friends, that we have drifted so far from our source... at the same time unaware that we have done that... they instead confusing it with the reflection in the narcissist waters. Even after 9 months of self-inflicted and painful distancing even from those we love the most, we show few signs that we might be close to finding our way home any time soon. We have allowed them to really do a job on us.
The only way we might return to source is by enthusiastically embracing each other; our family, friends, neighbors and colleagues and taking that path, which we know intuitively brings us out of illusion. We are ALL we have...
Those projections of leaders that dance across our TV and smartphone screens, they are almost to a person, criminals and at the least, complicit in our ongoing disempowerment.
Rise up!
