It's a MaDMaD World

This is a picture of the waterfall that I want at my Retreat, My Sanctuary. Looks quite beautiful and serene. I love that feeling.

My coach and I did a meditation to visit the place that I call My Retreat. It is a place for people to come to celebrate life, spirit, the Divine within. This is a new life that I am seeking. One that offers enlightenment and a peacefulness within.

There truly is not enough peacefulness or unity in the world. We are coming out of an era that was based on Greed and Ego. It is a tough climb out of a world that was created around us, in us, and through us, and one that we all knowingly participated. But I do believe that the climb can be achieved.
Saying that we knowing are accountable to our role in the Banking/Wall Street Extravaganza (Free-For-All) with our hard earned money, mearly means that we bought into what they were telling us. We wanted to believe. It's a Mad Mad World. Visions of twinkle dust and fairy sparkles danced in our heads. When reality finally set in, we were all left wondering, 'how could we have let this happen to ourselves?' and 'Why'. The How is the Ego and the Why is Greed.

Everyone wants a piece of the pie. I just finished watching "The Inside Job." What an incredible illusion that swept many away on a spiral journey downward. Good people, too. We all dream of a piece of that pie. That pie, however, was being offered to a few. And those few were rewarded by the Billions.

The truth is that there is enough. There is always enough. It is meant to be shared. The biggest part of what transpired and what I personally find the most heartbreaking, is that many goals turned from the 'Dream,' to the Greed. It did not matter how or what, as long as it made lots and lots of money. It also mattered little where that money came from, as long as it was there. This is the essence of Greed and Ego.

The truth is, that only Love is Real. Everything else is an illusion of love, manufactured here by our lack of or abundance of. My challenge is to live outside that box. I believe and have said many many times that if you truly love to do something, then you will have an abundant life. I still believe this. The essence of this is Love. Love is not a thing, that being, in many cases, money. We each have to define what Love truly is to us. We have to search our inner being to discover the truth, what is lacking. It is that which is lacking that is holding on to us from reaching our potential for true abundance. During my meditation, I was asked to see myself seated on a hillside. To see myself in pure love, without ego. What does that feel like? As I sit on the hill, to then look over and see my own place, my sanctuary. What does this feel like? What does it look like? If we can embrace this thought process, this feeling of pure love, without Ego, we can find a place of peace. That is the place to find the truth of abundance.

We were lost, help us be found. We were hungry, give us some food. We were alone, bring to us comfort. And Do so with a pure heart. Together we will rejoice as one.  We are each accountable for this life that we are living. We chose to live a life of the illusion of false prosperity, not on our terms, but on theirs. It's time to take back that power. It can be done, internally, on an individual level and then on a universal one.

It is a MadMad World, but it doesn't have to be if we choose to make the change. I am on that journey and it is an exciting one. Blessing to all to find that love that is inherent in all of us. Be kind, be generous, be creative, go conscious, be free.
