honour and dishonour

We are a wounded society. We have been for centuries. We abuse each other to the degree that we have helped each other forget that we are great, wise, loving, and infinite beings. We are aspects of the Divine, aspects of God, aspects of Infinite Existence.
And yet how many people among the billions on the planet treat each other, in every moment, as if they were Divine? If a person is seen as Divine, would that person not be honored in every moment?

In this earthly transition, this spiritual evolution, that this earth and its people are going through, one of the most incredibly important keys, if not THE most important key, is the way we treat each other.
We might do well to ask ourselves, what is there to gain from my behavior? What progress, what “prize,” have I acquired when I have caused pain to another? Is this a victory of some sort? When I demean or dismiss or abuse another soul, what does that do to my own soul?

Yes, I am on a “rant.” I blink in shock and stunned silence as I read the news, hear the latest unfolding events, and watch the lies and deceptions being uncovered. I witness this on the worldwide scale and I’m witnessing it in the lives of every person on an individual scale. Regarding the world scale, there are those who are appalled at the people who are “asleep” and do not know what’s going on. I believe they can be forgiven for, in their innocence, they might have assumed that this life was God-given and, that being the case, they would be free to live it without massive suffering and betrayal. (And once again I’ll admit that I am an idealist, yes.
)

The dichotomies and truths sometimes seem like a tangled mess that will be impossible to unravel. One article may address our own wounds and healing and how, by healing, we can become more of the truth of who we are. Another article may address the human tendency to victimize each other, and in the other half of that article will be the fact that we ourselves victimize ourselves. The human psyche appears to be a mystery. But in order to heal our society it’s necessary to solve that mystery.


The unraveling of our own threads of pain provides the only path we can take to heal this reality, to cause the change we seek. (I am assuming that, for the most part, this society would like to see less pain, less control, less lies, and more truth and love.) From my years of understanding, our own pain is the foundation of why we cause pain to others and why we, as a human society, cannot live in harmony.


Several months ago, during a major visitation, the information given to me was that the lies on this planet would be fully revealed. The foundation of lies that “sustain” this world must disintegrate in order to build a new foundation of truth. It certainly seems that the visitation was absolutely true. The changes in this world / reality are incredible to behold. Every person on Earth is being and will continue to be impacted. We, as an Earth-society, asked for this and not one of us is here by “accident.


That being the case, what are we, as a complete society, going to do about becoming the change we wish to see? Isn’t it reasonable to assume that the change is within each of us? In my humble opinion, a simple change of perspective could create great change. I sit and look at the sensational souls who are here on my friend’s list, who have befriended me, and I marvel at each one of them, as well as the people who populate my life elsewhere. I see each Soul. And I pray each day that each Soul sees him/herself.
If you saw yourself as the greatness that you are, would you not honor yourself? Would you not demand that every situation be honoring to the truth of who you are?

Our wounds cause us to accept into our lives things that do not honor the truth of who we are. If we do not find and embrace our own truth, we do not honor ourselves. We, as soul, “consciously” choose to bring people and situations into our lives that challenge us to remember who we are, and thus teach us to honor ourselves. The more we honor ourselves, the more we create a reality built on honor, and the more we honor others.


It’s all about honor. Speaking from a personal perspective, it is not honoring to the truth of who I am to allow myself to live with unhealed wounds. And it is not honoring to allow myself to live with pain and lack of honor. Perhaps this is the “shout out” that each of us who desire great change must adopt. I feel rather like I can hear the entire earth society yelling it … we’re made as hell and we’re not going to take it any more.


What are we not willing to take any more? Dishonor. And allowing a reality built on lies is a dishonor to the great and infinite souls that we are.
