Us Vs Them

How are you handling all the information coming at you? I don't do very well; there is too much of it and it breaks everything down into tiny details. It's part of the overwhelm we can all get in to. The further along we get in age the smaller amounts of input we can take in at any one time. I think it is a great self-care checkpoint for us. It's like the safety feature they put on some rental cars. You can only take the car to a speed that is near legal - none of this 100-mph speeding to see how the car works.


So that leads me to the next thing I wonder about. We had the elections and the results are posted, We either are very happy or very sad. But the one thing we forget is that all that goes on in the world is part of history repeating itself. It has all happened before.


Our biggest challenge is to remember there is no 'us; and 'them.' We are all community and we all want what we believe to be happening.


Si I anticipate a most amazing future ahead for us. Some things we will applaud and some things we will not like. At this point, I always quote the title of the Eagle's song "Get Over It."


It seems one of the side effects of reaching this age is the ability to suddenly get caught up in the energy of the chaos as it sweeps us away, I have a great example.


I have been concerned bout my dialysis lately. There are days when I finish and I come out to my wife like a zombie - no energy and listless. She drives me home and I get out of the car feeling so fragile that all I can do is go to bed. I hate feeling like that so last week when she came and I was Mr. Zombie I asked if we could sit in the lobby for five minutes and hold hands. It changed everything. It was as if I tapped into a spiritual meditation and it rejuvenated me. Now every time she picks me up we sit in the lobby for five minutes and I get healing touch by holding hands. Thank goodness, another way to be peaceful.


So that raises a question? In times when the chaos and disturbing energies cause rising blood pressure and panic, what are some steps you can take to step away into spiritual connection. It can be anything from a touc to a song to a car ride. Find yours because your body and your inner Divine want the balance. This is important and it will change the struggle of life to peaceful rest brings balance and grounding.


We are here at this time because we choose to be. We see the difficulties and struggles (I have a relative who believes "Life's a bitch; then you die!") But we forget that God gives us thousand of ways to feed ourselves spiritually and with love. Find yours...........
