Part of the Solution

2007-07-05

Hello Everyone,

I’ve been gone awhile, I see. Whew! Busy living life so I can write about it.

Recently I was in a home where I saw Bill O’Reilly’s TV show. I don’t have commercial television, so I always feel like an alien visiting the planet when I get to see television.

On this particular day his show was about Paris Hilton.  l knew little about Paris Hilton but his show was ostensibly about the slime that had released a website reviewing her sexual life and how low they were to do such a thing. Then, Mr. O’Reilly went on to show the website with the videos and publishes the website on national television. Now O’Reilly purports that he’s the “good” guy, because he’s calling out the “liberal press” for doing such a horrible thing.

How, I ask myself, can people watch this and be sucked into the idea that he’s a good guy as he simply pours gasoline on the fire.

America, can you not think for yourself? Can you not feel when you’re watching something like this that your stomach tightens up in a knot, your respirations increase, you feel agitated? Why are you watching it? That knot in your stomach is your Godchip saying, “I’m not connected with you at this moment,” because the absence of love is felt as pain. Simply said. Simply recognized.

In comparison, listen to someone like the Dalai Lama and check in how it feels to hear words of inspired hope, ideas of sound solutions, of compassion and Real, Genuine Interest.

When you go contrary to how it feels to you, you are now becoming part of the problem, not part of the solution. Go where it feels good. Follow that trail…..

and be a part of the solution. Apply your Spirit. Use it! It’s telling you all the time whether you’re connected (feels good) or not (feel bad).

Thanks for reading!
